Cummins. Why play the guessing game whether everything will fit properly, trimming etc needed... ? Use that aftermarket junk on your 318, stick with the real deal Cummins parts for your Cummins.

Ditto what Bill said. Besides, the Cummins kit is only $40 more- mine was ~$165 last summer ('03). Includes everything you need- if you are intercooled, you get a choice of about 3 or 4 injector sealing washers, plus ones for 9mm and 9mm to 7mm adaptors. You can get about 1/3 of your money back in washer sales alone. I have gaksets and o-rings I still cant place. Must be for later trucks. They fit 89-98 12v engines.

I tend to agree . . go with the Cummins parts. You will get the latest upgrades in materials and designs that way if there are any.
