My goal is to make the Chevy Duramax the next small block for engine transplants in to everyday hot rodder's cars and boats . This engine makes scene , it will bolt in any where you can fit a BBC. I talkdr Mike Wood in to tossing his LS mustang project and going to a Duramax ,and worked very closely on that project. That car was a dream to drive and would achieve 30+ MPG and run over 200 mph . The goal I have in not one off 3 turbots and 4 pump installs but a basically stock engine with stock relocated turbo. I want to see AC and power steering with 500 hp and 700 ft. lbs torque with 30 MPG .
There are several new ECM's coming on the scene , the Nira is one of them. I see the price coming down dramatically. The Nira has come down 50% over the last 3 years . There are others that use the Stock ECM's coming soon , one from Bosch.
the future is bright for the diesel power plant as an alternative to gas for street machine. This is bringing the mainstream in to the mix. I use my connections to the mainstream manufactures lobby everyday. Helping people like Edelbrock recognize the potential of the diesel engine is key to growth
I did a mainstream article with Drag illustrated recently , and I do MotorTrend / Autoworld Radio ever few weeks and feel I'm doing my part for diesel. Thank you to the many PM's of support ,
