Motor identification - Mav - 10-10-2017
I am looking at a 2010 prostar and I want to know what motor it has. I know it is at 435
Hp. If I buy it I will want that changed to 500 and mandate removed. Thank you

I will call cummins customer service with vin number but they're not going to tell me if it is a crap model. It has 600000 miles and a second apu. Don't want to buy hard parts to get hp increase. I am going to need to pay to have someone help me with the hp and to correct manufacture defects. I am in west palm and the truck is in Tampa I will get over to see it this afternoon
if not, walk away.

its a CM871. Best engine cummins has made so far. -- of course, that does not mean the one your looking at is not in bad shape. A trip to Mr. hags up in atl may be in order to help get it road ready again.

A 2010 ISX will be a CM871.
Before you just go "Increasing the horsepower" read Post #1 of this thread.

A factory 435hp WILL NOT be an ST block, so keep that and the horsepower in mind. Only >500hp factory ratings have an ST block.

Thank you all. I will post when I get back.

No go on the prostar. I have looked at home in south Florida and in Tampa. I am now in Jacksonville. I am going to look at a 04 international with a isx 435 rebuilt by a dealer in va. It has been deleted by someone in Jax. So if I buy it I will have to stop at Mr hagg to see what is going on. Any way wish me luck.
