    I bought a 2014 Kenworth t660 and just blindly assumed I was getting the one capable of 500 HP. Just looked on my engine stamp and it says max 455 and build date 9/2012. Never had a clue a 2014 truck would have a freaking 2 year old engine in it. Highly confused and possibly pissed off. Probably part of the answer to why it doesnt pull worth a crap even after delete and tune.

    Truck was built 02/14/13
    Truck is probably labeled as a 2013 truck as 2014 trucks should have the EPA 13 engine in it.
    Engine is only built 5 months sooner then the truck. Quite standard.
    Engine is a EPA 10 MX13 which would have the 6 individual unit pumps.
    That engine will max out factory at 485/1850. If you have the ecm modified it is probably well beyond that.
    Truck was built right around the time they switch between labeling them 2013 and 2014 trucks.

    So I take it that’s it’s not the high pressure fuel rail design that the later ones have and thanks so much for your response. It’s greatly appreciated.

    No not a common rail. Still a high pressure system, just an individual pump/injector setup. The common rail removed 4 of the pumps and just runs off the back 2.

    I have just one more question if you don’t mind. The guy that deleted my truck drilled out the dpf filter but not the scr canister. That sounds counter productive to me and another delete shop said it’s always advised to do both. I think the scr has slowly clogged over 5 months because it has slightly lost performance in that time. Does that sound feasible to you?

    It could be. I would remove the pipe before the dpf and take it for a drive. Either it gains power or it doesnt. Easy test to do. It will be a bit loud tho lol.
