Question 5

How long does a remanufactured Cummins VT903 engine last?

A remanufactured Cummins VT903 engine typically lasts 200,000 to 500,000+ miles with proper maintenance — comparable to a brand new engine.

Our remanufactured long blocks are built to OEM specifications using all-new internal components, which is why they deliver the same service life as a factory-new engine.
