    1993 7.3 IDIT - Delete the turbo, replace injectors and use a fuel pump calibrated for 174HP?

    Very cool. I know this lazy but what would the maximum recommended exhaust gas temperature (EGT) be for a normally aspirated diesel engine?

    Front sump is OK as the engine will be installed with the flywheel facing forward. A cardan shaft will then connect from the flywheel to the inboard v-drive transmission that will drive a conventional shaft / propeller. I may still chose to fabricate a pan from aluminum to better withstand the...

    Is the Type4 cam profile and timing published? What changes when this is installed? Is there someone that offers this for sale or does it have to be custom ordered?

    1993 7.3 IDIT - Delete the turbo, replace injectors and use a fuel pump calibrated for 174HP?

    Thanks for confirming my understanding the engine was engineered run @ rated HP and RPM for industrial / commercial service. A marine closed cooling seawater / freshwater system is included in the kit. Seawater is pumped through a large heat exchanger to remove heat from the cooling circuit and...

    1993 7.3 IDIT - Delete the turbo, replace injectors and use a fuel pump calibrated for 174HP?

    Water cooled yes, see marine parts listing below. Will probably cruise the engine at 2400 - 2700 RPM. From the emissions label: "This engine has a primary intended service application as a light heavy-duty diesel engine." With the factory A170 rating, I should be able to run for hours and...

    1993 7.3 IDIT - Delete the turbo, replace injectors and use a fuel pump calibrated for 174HP?

    A few reasons for consideration: Simplicity - A turbocharger is just another component to fail. Reliability - Marine application requires a water cooled turbo but the real concern is the exposure to salt water environment which seems to reduce turbo service life Safety - This is a small vessel...

    1993 7.3 IDIT - Delete the turbo, replace injectors and use a fuel pump calibrated for 174HP?

    I'm considering purchasing a 1993 7.3 factory IDIT, deleting the turbocharger, replacing the injectors with N/A units and using a fuel pump calibrated for 174HP @ 3000 RPM? This engine has keystone piston rings. Is it necessary to use a turbocharger on this configuration to ensure the piston...
