Nice find, that could be interesting, it's been hard to get any information about the new Cummins.

If you look up US patent 20180087410 A1 it talks about this being a very cost driven design, which to me indicates it is for the light truck market. Picture of the rockers attached, looking somewhat similar to the current ones.(see attachment)

Looks like it's getting hydraulic lash adjusters, too.

Also, there have been many, many patents issued for 9 thru 12 speed transmissions over the past couple of years, granted to Aisin, Allison, ect. In particular, Allison has one that fits into the 1000/2000 series envelop, and is a nine speed.

HD news has been so silent and well guarded that I think they're really cooking something up over there.

Here's another patent illustration showing different piston bowl designs developed to enable the engine to pass emissions without a diesel oxidation catalyst. The new engine is shaping up to be awesome.(see attachment)
