    Actually there are 4 Cummins engines ( with a few sub-engines) that all came with the exact same Sherwood 1730-XX pump from the factory when sold new.

    Cummins engine what that pump:

    1)———— 6BTA 5.9 260/270 that used the Bosch P7100 injection Pump

    2) ———–6BTA 315/330 M3, and the 6BTA “370 Diamond” — P7100 pump

    3) ———- All of the 6CTA 8.3 M-3’s — 350, 430 & 450 Diamonds –P7100 pump

    4) ———–All of the QSL9’s

    Same pump as long as the 6BTA you are referring to is the “M3” Bosch engine. The C is a tad easier to deal with since you don’t have the clearance issue with the mount that is common with the B’s..
