It was the 5.7 diesel they ran out of diesel motors and started using 350 gas blocks and putting diesel heads on them seen it on the history channel. Gm for sued over it
I have seen those 350 diesel in a Oldsmobile one time those where a bad thing gm did. Why do v8s not belong in the diesel world. I seen at the Detroit auto show the 2016/17 dodge ram is going to a v8 that Cummings is developing it for them. Thanks for that 11echo I thought they were imported...
I'm not trying to build it up just wonder why so many people seem to hate it. I been thinking on the nv4500 swap and a turbo from banks tops for my 86 m1008. Here is the info from the ford 6.9 just seeing how much different for the same year truck and there is not much.
International Navistar...
I see just always wonder that. I like the 6.2 and the 6.5. I also have a 2001 7.3 power stroke good engine there but I have had my problems with that and those a million motors. Even tho my buddy has a 6.5 that has 700,000 something on it runs great. 6.2/6.5 are Detroit motors I thought the...

I was driving my truck to work to day when all of a sudding volt gauge drop and the belt started to squeal really loud and broke the gen2 light came on and stayed on until I shut my truck off when I restarted it the gen 2 light stayed off. I got a new belt and but it on but the gen2 light didn't...
