Sorry, I don't check this sight often enough, so the best way to get me is call or e-mail me.
The 480 CE Cummins is the exact same mechanical 8.3L inline 6 engine as the 6CTA 450 with the exception of a fully electronic fuel injection and redesigned head. I have not heard of any problems with the 480 CEs. The 480s are quieter and more fuel efficient. There is nothing wrong with the 450s, but the 480s were an improvement. January of 2006 brought on the Cummins QSC which is a fully electronic version with a redesigned block. It is still an 8.3L inline 6 diesel, but that is about the only similarity. The 490s are even quieter, much less smoke and even more efficient.
All three engines are good choices.
Contact me via e-mail or phone if you want to see what's available on the market.
Sincerely,
