    Marine cam and bigger injectors tells us nothing really. What is the cam part number, injector number? Also do you know if it was loaded with the factory 5ek pistons or something different that would change the compression ratio

    5eks only had different injectors if they were rated at 550hp.

    As wore out said get parts numbers and come back.

    I got a c-15 with mbn junk file. With 3406e is a different story. If 3406e, nwg turbo, 550 hp file, and ceramic coated manifold.
