Will the H.O. Hurricane be the engine for the 2500 redesign?

I'd be very surprised if the new 2500 comes with a 3.0 liter engine of any variant, Hurricane S.O/H.O or otherwise. I feel like the Hurricane would give up the ghost earlier than a 6.4 Hemi or a 6.7 Cummins. Unless they're planning on unleashing a larger I6 turbo, maybe a 4.0-5.0 Liter, let's call it the Tornado! I'd drive a 2500 Tornado!

Edit: My apologies in advanced if I missed some announcement that the Hurricane IS the new 2500 engine.

Cummins has a 6.7L gas engine that's been rumored as a contender but I personally don't see it being used in the RAM HD.

Tornado! I like it!

Maybe have an Oklahoma Special Launch Edition.

I’d love to see a Cummins gasser in an HD truck, I will keep pipe dreaming! I assume it shares a lot of architecture with the 6BT? All of my experience with Kubota engines makes me think that that sort of modularity in design is the way to go.

Shared with the 5.9L 6BT LPG? More likely based off the ISB6.7-G (LPG).

ISB is the current 6.7L platform in RAM HD.

Yes, my apologies. I meant the current 6.7 diesel. My brain is yearning for the simpler times 😂
 
The Cummins "Gasser" uses the same block as the ISB. Cummins is developing three new heads for the next gen ISB. Gas, CNG, and Diesel. They call it "fuel agnostic". There are ramblings of the gas model being available in Rams to replace the Hemi, with the diesel as well, and potentially the CNG for fleet spec. Cummins of course will have these available for medium duty commercial use.
