Question 5

How long does a remanufactured Detroit Diesel Series 60 engine last?

Accepted Answer

A remanufactured Detroit Diesel Series 60 engine typically lasts 200,000 to 500,000+ miles with proper maintenance — comparable to a brand new engine. The longevity of your remanufactured Detroit Diesel Series 60 12.7L depends on regular oil changes, proper cooling system maintenance, using the correct fuel and fluids, and following the manufacturer's recommended service intervals. 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.

Question 6

Is a remanufactured Detroit Diesel Series 60 better than a used or rebuilt engine?

The engine block and crankshaft are precision machined to factory tolerances, delivering better reliability, longer life, and a stronger warranty than used or rebuilt alternatives.
