Compatible Models

We do our best to list all compatible models. Although this may be the part you need, your exact model may not appear below.

Compatible equipment / model
  • Cummins 4BT marine diesel (matching H1C installation)
  • Cummins 6BT / 5.9L marine diesel (matching H1C installation)

Important fitment note: Compare the original turbo ID plate, housings, flange orientation and oil connections; 4BT and 6BT installations vary. Applications must be checked against the original part number and equipment serial-number catalog; engine or option changes can affect fitment.

Product Overview

The turbo uses exhaust energy to compress intake air. Worn bearings, damaged wheels or a leaking turbo housing may lead to oil consumption, smoke or reduced boost. Inspect intake restrictions and charge-air leaks before replacing a turbo that appears weak.
