And this is why a NA IDI will do decently, but a NA Cummins... can barely get out of it's own way.
Had a CAC boot come off due to not tightening it down on a '99 ram... Up to about 25 it was fine, and it'd get to 45 without issues. Beyond that it was just... not going to go faster. I got to 60 down the highway about 5 miles later.
So, for low-end performance, that nice N/A head is good. Then, you just add a turbo for the high end and... Much better than the 7.3PSD which has zero power down low.
a i am curious about the 9.0 liter with all the specs thats been given with the other engines like the idi and di and Cummins how does the 9.0 compare
a i am thinking its heavy
Hmm. 7.3 PSD no power down low...
my 96 has 800 ft lbs at 1,100 rpm and 1,000 ft lbs at 1,700 rpm. That is at the crank breaking in the engine. I guess it thinks it is a Mack.....
