400hp 9.2ISL Cummins or 400hp C9 Cat
Pros and Cons please and do realize that some of this stuff is like arguing Ford vs Chevy. Thing is, I'm not even in the ball park when it comes to Diesel power.

No matter how you look at these two engines, they were/are both popular in certain brands over certain time periods. The Cat C7 was the engine to have when it started showing up in DP's. Then the manufacturers started gravitating toward the Cummins ISL when it came available. The Cat C9 started showing up in certain brands like Beaver and a few others. At some point Cummins started to dominate the market.
Soooooo.....either will be a good engine, it just depends on your budget, which will dictate the year of coach you can afford, which will dictate which engine was the most popular then.
****Wolfe....I had C7 on my mind when I posted, but still the same outcome with engine availability. I corrected my statement.
