48 RE HP AND TORQUE

??? What is the HP and TORQUE ratings of the 5.9 HO with the 48re AUTO-TRANS ? Also my dealer said I shouldn't put the exhaust brake on with the 48re ? Is this because the trans. won't hold up to it or what ?

Re:48 RE HP AND TORQUE

Yeah, the dealer is saying not to install the exhaust brake because the stock torque converter clutch does not have enough holding power.<br><br>The ratings of your HO Cummins 03 is 305hp and 555ft lbs of torque at the engine.<br><br>If you want a Torque converter that does work with the Exhaust and cannot slip.<br>www.atsdiesel.com<br><br><br>--Justin
