A BLOWN engine has a hole in block with a rod stuck in it.....we call them duramaxes

.....although it has happened to a few Cummins with big oil leaks in the turbo fueling oil into the intake....never good. KS

there also referred to as 7.3 PSD.

Good ole banks....cough*JUNK*cough.... they have alot more money to fight people about warrenty stuff then you do. Good luck with the new engine, i would talk to alot of the big HP guys like lmills to find out what products make power, the whole buildup of my truck was done after hearing how other guys were doing with products....

I know that it has built in EGT safety margins, boost backdowns, and it DOES NOT raise fuel pressure...

Stock is safest..always. In my opinion the Edge juice the safest module you can use....but its not fool proof either. I sold my neighbor and hot juice and warned him about the tranny...he didnt listen...tranny is just about toast a month later....and he did listen enough to NOT use level 5.....but still tranny is toast

I called Banks one day to ask why i should buy Banks products just for the fun of it.....I was told that when comparing literature, i would find that Banks is much better.

Put me down for a 4th in calling Scheid Diesel.

Just look at what John P's Red Ram Rocket just did on a dyno. I made like 780+ on a dyno at the rear wheels running #2 only. If he ever gets a good tire on it to keep from spinning all four the first 50 foot, he'll be in the 11's.
