Man, there ain't no such thing as a cheap Cummins - and if you find one, the seller better be a relative or a good friend. Also, think about repairs - Cummins will last long, but then how much is the injection pump gonna run ya? Compare that to a custom-tuned Stanadyne DB2 that can be had for about $400 (or less if you get lucky), all the other parts for the IDI are fairly cheap as well...
