Now is the time to buy a cummins...

 

DCX derated the new 6.7 to make it easier to pass the new emission stats. To make up for the lower rating, they increased the CID.
Larger CID, lower rating = less emissions and same pulling power

I guess that leaves us more room for "BOMBING"

 

The September issue of Diesel Power had a write up on the new engine. It stated that 40% of the parts carry over. The head will be basically the same but with modified swirl chambers, the rods are the same also. The the compression ratio is raised to 17.3:1, the bore is increased to 107mm (4.21 inches) and the stroke grows to 124mm (4.88 inches).

 

No i didnt I got all excited that it was the new 6.7L , snapped 2 pics and walked away cause someting else caught my eye

I asume it was the new Aisen cause it was a 3500 non-duelly

 

Did you happen to see Marco and Bob Wagner?

 

heres another pic

 

Man, that EGR and plumbing take up some space and look under there....sign of the times I guess.....

 

That truck had the 6 spd in it, waiting for pics to be approved

 

Which one? The auto and stick are both 6 spd's....

 

 

Actually this new engine doesn't sound too bad. From another thread:

Maintains close hp/tq ratings as the 5.9 and supposed to be more fuel efficient. I thought fuel economy would go down with the bigger displacement but I guess not.

 

hey Powerstrokin03 did you get a pic of the outside of the rig ?? I took pics of the engine turn around and saw something shiny and walked away without takin' a pic of the outside

 

haha no must have seen the same shiney thing

 

i drove a 6.7 about 3 hours ago, it ran good had some trouble shifting at first not use to the stock super soft clutch, it smoked the tires pretty good with no bed on it, im thinking about buying one
