12.7 ddec IV. I run the west a lot was really wondering, what motor would be better suited for that. I know you can really wake the ddec IV up with a proper tune, and if you want... A few hard parts. Then I got this mxs acert, heard good and bad things.

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.jsnell and Rideandrepair Thank this. -

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.Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
