Case went to Cummins in the 70s looking to source an engine for their construction lines. Among the design perameters was that it had to last so many hours at such a horsepower level , and it also had to be able to run while tipped at a minimum of 45 degrees in any direction. So begins the story of the B series. That's why they can run 350+ horse and 650+ torque in the pickups without leaving the crank on the highway.
The cummins has a different torque peak and redline than an IHC so it will perform differently. The standard redline is 3200 so it will run a bit faster, especially in something like an M, and there is a 4200 RPM governor spring available that is fairly easily swapped in, so you could make something like a 1066 FLY.
I'd like to stick a 3.9 in a little red express with an 8 speed.
