I would assume it's an auto if so did you upgrade it.

it is an auto as far as upgrade? im real sure what all he did but he did say he changed out most of the factory parts to aftermarket. heavier duty stuff especially the torq-converter which is what i was having the most trouble with.

I'd post it over there but they have this thing about guys posting stuff that's not theirs. They like taking them 12v's and hot rodding the heck out of them, sled pullers, you name it, some guys are even putting 24 valve heads on them! The 5.9 Cummins is the 350 chevy of diesel engines. Look on the side of the engine block, you'll have to crawl under the front of the front tire(driver side), look just above the oil pan about 1/4 to halfway down. Make sure you don't see a "53" cast onto the block. Or at least know if it is or not. I'm not sure if the 96 had the 53 block or not, might have been later. They were mexico blocks and a little thin and had a tendancy to crack and leak water. The numbers are about an inch or so tall, can't miss them if it is a 53, if no 53 your good.

Those 53 casting blocks were from the late 98 or early 99 model 24 valves when they first changed the head to 24 valve.
