2002 60 Series vs 06 C-15 MXS

Lol

Start with a bare block 12.7
And bare block C15 acert, less money to build a Detroit, less money spent in fuel, less money to repair, or replace.

 

Dodge is suppose to have a 4 cyl diesel for 1/2 tin haven’t seen 1 yet

 

Fords gonna dominate I believe Hard to beat a Ford pu. They’re turning into a Totallyvdifferent co. An old buddy of mine works at truck plant working 7 days

 

I’ve got my years mixed up but had a driver telling his egr woes claimed his prior Detroit had 2 egr valves . He must have been mistaken that doesn’t sound right

 

They did have 2 vpods for 2007 I think?

 

Factory settings for S60 12.7 is 435hp/1550lbft. You'll need ECM tuning software I'm pretty sure to get it higher.

Most guys don't have a problem with a 12.7 running 80k gross or less on hills, but make sure your gearing is in the 3.55-3.70 range and have at least a 13 speed. You won't ever be first to the top and will likely get passed by a lot of people if you go any heavier.

And then there is the argument about higher power motors getting better fuel economy on bigger hills at bigger weights, because they spend less time going up it.

 

435? What happened to 470 or 500 1750

 

I guess that’s when they made them 14 L
