Depending on what emission system is fitted, there could be plugging of the catalytic converter on the unit, which would cause overheating. Also, since this is a basically new engine, the pump timing could be off. I would think the engine was run at the factory before installing it, which would find any problems such as this.
Cummins makes an excellent product. Could the problem be something simple...a blocked or partially blocked hose, thermostat not opening, air trapped in the engine. Most/all have air vents to get pockets of trapped air out.
The best bet would be a call to Cummins with the model and serial number of your unit handy. I am sure they could give you a definite answer.
