FAQ
Is this a direct replacement for my 2003–2004 5.9L?Yes. It’s built as a complete long block for 2003–2004 5.9L Common Rail trucks. Accessories, manifolds, and fuel system components transfer from your core.
What’s the difference between Stock, Stock Plus, and Performance?Stock is OE-style. Premium Stock Plus adds blueprinting, upgraded fasteners, coated pistons, and a reconditioned head with fire-ring grooves. Performance variants add further airflow and strength upgrades for higher HP goals.
Do I still need ARP head studs if they’re included?This long block is assembled with ARP 2000 head studs. If you’re re-torquing or changing gasket thickness, consult our engine parts section for replacement hardware and proper torque specs.
What else should I replace while the engine is out?Common add-ons include a fresh CP3 pump, full upper head set, and cooling refresh from our cooling system category.
