you cant chip a 12 valve its all mechanical. what id do is do some 200 hp injectors turn the pump up and straight pipe it then get a k@n filter and a big turbo. some cool diesel websites are www.thedieselgarage.com www.peirsdiesel.com not sure it thats right. nothing like having pure power climbing steep passes passing everyone blowin black smoke

ya i really like the 6bt. i think it would be cool to put a 4bt in an older pickup or suv. i know those yotapickups have diesel engines in other countries. i would kill for one of those.

imo the older dodges were great in there day, but they start to suck after 10 years... Drove one for a while, it just didnt have any pick up and go, it could pull anything you put on it, but you just couldint get on the highway to save your life.. And to get it back to good running condition was like a 5k overhaul ---- that ----.

Anyone know anything about fords? I have a 92 with the 7.3 ( i think?) 250 thousand on it, had it forever, runs amazing, went through emissions a month ago and the guy said he couldn't believe how well it scored. Anyways, its the non-turbo diesel, but for some reason it never revs above 3k when yellow is at 4 and redline is at 5. I don't know...

Also i have been thinking about putting a turbo in this motor, as it is a torque beast, and will haul at slow speeds, but it is slow as ****.

These things last for ------- ever. Guy here in town has a 91 dually, with over 1.2million miles on it. Original motor went to over 800K then he overheated it and replaced it preemptively, that motor went on elsewhere.
If its slow, its likely in need of an injector overhaul, possibly a injection pump overhaul.

Yup it needed new injectors, the pump needed work, the turbo neede to be rebuild, and some other stupid ----.. Desiel mechanic said like 5k lol, so that was a no go..

Probly could have done it cheaper myself, but i dont work on company vehicals, 20hr for mechanical work is lame, and all they were willing to give me was my hrly rate...
