450 Cummins 6CTA
Good afternoon, does anyone know where I can find 2 aftercoolers, new or used, OEM or Aftermarket for a Cummins 6CTA-8.3 engine. Part # is 5566836. Cummins is on a 3 month backorder and I have tried eBay and the first 6 pages of a google search to no avail. It's a high price item so most parts places don't keep them in stock.

Any assistance is appreciated. I have a charter business so I'm trying to find these ASAP.

Thank you.

They were actually my first call and they don’t have anything in stock. There are a ton of websites that say they have them available but that means they are available to order through Cummins and Cummins has a national backorder. Thanks for checking, much appreciated.

There is a guy on the facebook group "Cummins Powered Boat" his name is Tom DeMann. I believe he runs a shop and gets in cummins motors and parts frequently. You can try there.
 
Wow...at this price I may start servicing them yearly!

Dang! $7000. I went nuts when they went from $1700 to $3200 five or six years ago. Had to buy three then. Wish I’d bought thirty.

When I bought the 420, a raw water service was part of the deal. I had a "budget" . The Service Mgr couldn't believe that they had made that jump! Ah, good times!

I went through the same issue last spring when my mechanic, who is an authorized Cummins dealer, told me he had them on back order and couldn't find any dealers that had them for my QSC 500's. I was able to find one aftercooler from the Cummins dealer in Anchorage Alaska, who shipped it to me overnight for $77.00! When I told my mechanic, he miraculously received a delivery of one he had on back order the next day?! Good Luck!
