VerifiedThanks for asking your question. I will try and help you out.
Yes you can have a C15 Cat installed in place of the C13. Hut to be honest. It would be expensive and a lot of work. It would be more cost effective and time effective to trade the truck for one with a bigger engine. Anytime a truck is modified. It ends up being not worth the hassle. I am sorry.Please reply back if you need more help. I am happy to assist.
