Great Lakes Diesel gone??

surely he wouldn't say whatever it takes to sale parts.

 

Great Lakes took a friend of mine for $30,000, for a c15, That they had 600 cat liner kits in, and never changed the crank. Could not get it running right, then dropped a valve with in 50 miles! Then told him it was his problem. Then it cost him another $18,000 to have it put together the right way. They are fighting it out in court now..

 

They are still fighting it out, He also charged him a crazy price for a cust grind cam shaft... it was just a factory 550 cam. I just wonder how many more people they screwed...

 

What does he claim he can do to the ECM for that price???????

There is a shop here in the US that claims they can advance injection timing, along with much higher RPM than 2300. They want alot less than $3500US.

 

Isn't there any marine/industrial pistons for C-16? Great Lakes is not doing anything custom themselves, they are all stock parts from different engines. You can machine stock pistons for lower compression but I think 3.2 bars is not too much for your engine if you have liner protrusion set to maximum.

 

If he's asking you what numbers you want in it.............he's talking FLS/FTS. Price gouging is all he's doing at those prices. There are big differnces in flash files also........he should be telling you what the best file is for power gains in a C-16. If he doesn't know then he shouldn't be selling this stuff, cause all he's doing is taking your money for nothing.
