For its first year, the automatic transmission version of the 24-valve was rated at the same amount of power and slightly less torque, but if you purchased a manual transmission truck, you got a little more oomph. The most powerful 12-valve in a pickup truck application was rated at 215hp and 440 pounds of torque.
In place of the P-pump was a new, electronically controlled injection pump from Bosch called the VP44, and the cylinder head now contained twice as many valves as before, giving the 1998.5 to 2002 Cummins ISB its nickname, the 24-valve.
For Cummins, that day happened midway through the 1998 model year when the last P7100 12-valve trucks rolled off the assembly line. However, just like the typewriter, there would come a day when the older mechanical technology would be phased out in favor of a newer, electronic alternative. The VE and P7100 trucks were simple to work on, very reliable, and with a few simple tweaks to the pump, could deliver a huge increase in power over stock.
2016 - 2022 Canyon/Colorado 2.8L Duramaxįrom 1989 until 1998, the Dodge Ram pickups powered by the 5.9-liter Cummins 12-valve engine had a mechanical injection pump.
