F800 HP rating?

[ghunt]

At my work they just bought a '96 F800 (or at least that's what we were told it was).

It has a 12V Cummins and a six speed allison.

How can I find out the HP/TQ rating for the engine in this truck?

Look on the timing gear cover on the drivers side front of the engine, in front of the injection pump, there will be a data plate riveted there. That will tell you the HP and what type of engine it is, then somebody on here can probably tell you the torque rating for that year and model.

what birken is speaking of, is known as the cpl plate. this plate holds all the info about that particular engine. ever go to a cummins shop, this is the first info they will ask for. 96 year engines started at 160hp and went to 230hp. 160/175 were most common in buses and f600's, 190/210 was common in f700/800 apps'. and the higher hp 230, i have only seen one in all my years around these units. when the isb [24v] came in the picture,210/230hp became common. hp and trq rateings are as follows. 160hp/400trq, 175hp/420trq, 190hp/475trq, 210hp/485trq a higher trq 210hp is also avaiable, at 520 lbs. finally the 230hp/605 trq. also if you go to a ford dealer and ask about 5.9 cummins parts, dont be suprised if they carry the ford fd-1060 label.
