Industrial Injection PDM-59STBB 5.9L Cummins Street Performance Stage 1 Builder Box Short Block Kit

The Industrial Injection PDM-59STBB 5.9L Cummins Street Performance Builder Box is a complete, unassembled machined and blueprinted short block kit designed for diesel enthusiasts and engine builders who want to tackle their own Cummins rebuild. This kit ships everything needed to assemble a performance short block directly to your door, saving thousands in labor and machine shop costs compared to a professionally assembled engine.

Every component in the Street Performance Builder Box is precision machined, balanced, and blueprinted to Industrial Injection specifications. The Stage 1 camshaft and upgraded internal hardware elevate this kit above a stock replacement, making it well-suited for street performance, towing, and daily driving applications that demand more than OEM output.

Kit Includes:

• Machined block using plateau honer with torque plate
• Machined and blueprinted to spec
• Machine balanced crankshaft
• Machine balanced connecting rods with ARP rod bolts
• Machine balanced coated and chamfered pistons and wristpins with rings
• Industrial Injection Stage 1 camshaft (188/220)
• 12mm Gorilla girdle with custom ARP main studs
• Billet freeze plugs
• Coated H-Series main and rod bearings
• New cam bearings
• New Cummins oil cooler
• New Cummins oil pump
• New Cummins tappets
• New Cummins lower engine gasket kit

Important Notes:

• This kit does not include fuel or turbo components
• Sold as an unassembled short block — final assembly required
• All Industrial Injection short blocks must be broken in using Joe Gibbs Break-In Oil (not included) for the initial 300–500 miles
• A $1,600 core charge applies — a rebuildable core must be returned to receive a refund

The PDM-59STBB Street Performance Builder Box delivers a professional-grade foundation for your 5.9L Cummins engine build, combining premium machining with high-quality performance components at a fraction of the cost of a fully assembled short block.
