BigIron, I don't know who put that video together, but thats a 400 series International engine. Probably started out life as a DT466, it was probably around 540 cubic inches or more.

A big rig puller at the Bloomsburg, PA pull last year did the same thing to a Cummins KTA600, was one of the Silver Bullet Mack trucks from Ohio. Should be on youtube somewhere.

I like this one. Its and industrial engine, but I would like to start the fear mongering rumor of the new Ford 6.7 Test stand..

"After months of testing our 6.7 we feel its just as reliable as previous Ford diesel engines"
