PRODUCT DETAIL
Features:
Shopping for an engine replacement usually means choosing between an expensive new unit or a used engine with an unknown history, and neither option feels great when it's your daily driver on the line. The DFC Diesel KORE Series Long Block gives 1994-1997 12 valve Cummins owners a third option built specifically for value without cutting corners on the parts that matter. Every KORE Series long block goes in with new Mahle pistons, Mahle main and rod bearings, and Total Seal gapless piston rings, the same caliber of components you'd expect from a more expensive build. New valves, seats, and guides round out the top end work, while fresh front and rear main seals help keep the rebuild leak free from day one. DFC machines every component to OEM specifications or better, so you're not sacrificing precision just because you're choosing the more affordable series. This makes the KORE Series a smart call whether you're running a daily driver that needs to stay dependable or a commercial truck that can't afford downtime. For a 12 valve owner who wants real Mahle components without paying new-engine pricing, this is the practical middle ground.
The DFC Diesel KORE599497SOALB is a remanufactured long block engineered specifically for 1994-1997 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks equipped with the 5.9L Cummins 12 valve engine. The long block assembly includes new Mahle pistons, new Mahle main bearings, and new Mahle rod bearings, paired with Total Seal gapless rings for improved sealing compared to standard ring designs. New valves, seats, and guides are installed during the rebuild, along with new front and rear main seals to help ensure a proper seal at both ends of the engine. A complete gasket set is included for installation, and every component is professionally machined to meet or exceed OEM specifications. The KORE Series is manufactured in an ISO 9001:2015 certified facility, reflecting the same quality management standards used across DFC's broader engine lineup. Unlike DFC's standard engine line, the KORE Series carries a 1 year unlimited mileage parts-only warranty that applies to both personal and commercial use. KORE Series engines are designed for compatibility with most existing parts and upgrades, which helps simplify installation and reduces the need to source additional components during the build.
