Well, it looks like sometime in 2006 we will get a new Cummins in the Dodge.
The 6.7L is essentially a stroked 5.9L.

Anyone else heard anything about this?

Its talking about the 6.7 tractors, but its straight from the horses mouth on what they're developing

 

6.9L...in duallys only...medium duty motor being used in mexico, if we can get it to pass emission req's.....

 

You are correct!!My good friend and neighbor who is a product design eng.for crysler called me last night and told me he had just viewed the 6.7 cummins in the 2500 and 3500 series trucks.The 6.7 cummins will be in the 2007,s this fall.coobie

 

ok so lets settle another ignorant rumor... is it an I-6?

 

You can flame away about the rumors,I guess we will wait and see and yes it is a I-6.coobie

 

i wasn't flaming on anything, sorry if it sounded like it

 

Sorry also ,I guess I read your post incorrectly.coobie

 

i was just saying another rumor running around is that the new 6.7 will be a v-8 and not an I-6. so i was just wondering if u knew or not

 

Horsehauler,I pm,ed you,coobie

 

stroked 5.9, that would be a step in the right direction, just the opposite of Ford & Chevy, a long stroke engine should make tons of torque down low, if they make it available with a 3.20-3.40 diff. ratio and a decent overdrive trans. ratio, it should pull good at around 1700-1800RPM at 70MPH, & put out some decent MPG (HINT HINT DC, HINT HINT)

 

Boy you got that right. These trucks need torque and a decent rear gear ratio, not more screaming rpm.

 

do we have any specs on the 6.7?

 

great...that sucks..now im really glad i got an 06

 

ummm what sucks?
