    Modify 7.3 idi vs cummins swap

    I do like the 7.3 with all its extra cubes. So what would it take to get the idi in that hp range. Would I be able to make 400-450 with the same amount of work or is that starting to get into the unreliable territory for the idi

    Has anyone used this head it's supposed to flow 200cfm. Was there any loss in low end torque or power below 2000 rpm. How big of a drop was there in egts and boost.

    14in sae 2 clutch torque rating

    Thanks that's also what I was thinking. Will be putting a cummins to a rto6610 in a 93 ford. So the max torque the engine can make is 1400ft lbs as that's the highest rated 14in clutch I could find.

    14in sae 2 clutch torque rating

    Does weight effect how much torque these clutch can handle. I found one rated at 1400 torque but I imagine that's at 60k lbs. In a 8000 pickup would that clutch be able to handle more torque like between 1800-2000 lbs

    7.3 idi turbo hard to start

    It was definatly glow plugs. I didn't replace anything just grounded out the controller for 10-15 seconds and it fired right up. Most of the plugs are out but there seems to be enough to start it easier. So thanks everyone for your help. My starter also thanks you.

    7.3 idi turbo hard to start

    So I have discovered something interesting. The glow plug controller does not stop sending power to the plugs until the engine starts. I was trying to test the cold advance by disconecting the wire from the pump and when I did I heard a click in the plug controller. So I went to start it and the...

    7.3 idi turbo hard to start

    Only get the motocraft zd9 plugs right. It's strange that it would need the glow plug even in hotter weather considering the cummins has no glow plugs and less compression and will fire right up in colder weather or is that a idi vs dI thing

    Low end torque capability of 7.3 idi vs p7100 cummins 5.9

    What is it a crazy question? I figured that the 7.3 has a very large displacement advantage witch helps low rpm torque but the cummins is a straight 6 witch naturally makes better torque. I'm not talking about stock engines. The 7.3 would have something like a rd4 150 pump and matching turbo
