My thinking was, if the AF or housing was the restriction, you might have noticed less smoke when you ran it as well because the fuel rate was turned up past the flow rate of the intake. Restriction gone=better combustion=less smoke=more power. To put it another way, you just got enough air to...

I think we were also seeing more issues on rebuilds throwing rods than non-rebuilt engines. I thought someone was going to do a rod bolt failure analysis?

There has been speculation about the M35 air filter flow ratings as opposed to the 5 ton filter and the impact on the output. How dirty was the filter, and how much have you turned it up?

Nobody is saying it CAN'T be done. What I am saying at least is nobody has wasted the money/effort required to do it. Considering these pages are frequented by guys of the skills and financial backing to buy and rebuild tanks as a lark, that means something. It just isn't cost effective to...

I'm in serious need of a neutral dyno and 3 engines to end this retarded subject. Every six months we get half a dozen guys with the same spiel who think a bigger turbo, or an air-to-air will turn the LDT/LDS into a 300hp+ million mile engine. (Or some other variation on the theme) It reminds...

That was the upgraded output. The designed output was closer to 120hp. 120 to 300 is about 200%. You do it with your truck and tell us how it goes.

The intake isn't the issue. You CAN get 250hp out of a multifuel... just before you lose a rod or melt a piston. Look at the pulling tractors that have used these engines for some hints as to what breaks.
