I am trying to fine 12 valve cummins on propane. Does anyone have any ideas. I just need a complete not running engine. I had a gentleman tell me there was a place in Hastings NE that had a bunch of engines but i dont know how to find the number. I have been told that they are used alot for irrigation pumps.

Try Westport Cummins. These are spark ignition Cummins engines used in trucks on CNG or in biogas plants.

The irrigation pump engines mostly come from an operation out of Clovis, NM. I think they sell thru most Cummins distributors. All size engines are available. You probably mean the six cylinder B engine. They have been sold for many years so parts and cores should be out there.

Industrial-Irrigation Services and Husker Power Products are the two largest irrigation engine distributors in Hastings, Ne.
