FITMENT
- 2013–2018 6.7L Dodge Ram Cummins 2500 & 3500 Pickup Turbo Diesel.
- Note: Does NOT fit Cab & Chassis (3500 / 4500 / 5500 C&C) models.
DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
- Factory 6.7L Cummins engines can experience EGR-related intake contamination and coolant leak issues from factory plastic coolant fittings. The OEM EGR system recirculates exhaust soot into the intake, contributing to carbon buildup, while repeated heat cycles can weaken plastic coolant connectors and cause leaks over time.
- The Cummins Package addresses these common failure points with an EGR cooler delete assembly and CNC-machined billet aluminum coolant hose barb adapter. This upgrade helps reduce soot contamination and provides a stronger, more reliable cooling system connection.
Key Features
- EGR Cooler & Valve Delete: Permanently removes the heavy OEM EGR cooler assembly, stopping hot soot recirculation and eliminating internal cooler leak risks.
- Billet Coolant Barb Leak Adapter: Replaces brittle, leak-prone OEM plastic coolant adapters with a heavy-duty, hose barb adapter that resists high heat, pressure, and warping.
- High-Flow Throttle Valve Delete Tube: Replaces the restrictive inline butterfly valve with a smooth, straight-through delete pipe to maximize clean, pressurized intake CFM.
- Reduces Engine Bay & Intake Temps: Eliminating EGR gas circulation lowers pre-deletion intake temperatures and reduces overall under-hood engine bay heat.
FAQ
Q: Does this kit include a Throttle Valve Delete tube?
A: No. This kit focuses on EGR cooler removal and upgrading the factory coolant connector with a billet barb adapter. The stock throttle valve remains installed. For improved intake airflow, pair it with Throttle Delete Kit.
Q: What specific problem does the included Billet Coolant Barb Adapter solve?
A: The factory 6.7L Cummins coolant connector uses plastic fittings that can weaken and crack from repeated heat cycles. The CNC billet aluminum barb adapter replaces this weak point with a stronger, more durable metal connection to help prevent coolant leaks.
Q: How should I install the O-rings on the Billet Coolant Barb Adapter?
A: Apply a small amount of clean coolant or lubricant to the O-rings before installation. This helps prevent seal damage and ensures proper fitment without leaks.
Q: Do I need to drain all engine coolant before installing this kit?
A: Yes, partially. You need to drain about 2–3 gallons of coolant from the radiator drain valve (petcock) so the fluid level drops below the EGR valve height, preventing a messy spill during removal.
