I know a lot don't ever go to compd but Chris Watson finally posted some good pics of his Sigma'd Dmax motor. All I can say is WOW!!!!!!

Says it should turn 7000 rpms and make 2500hp:happy2:

Hmm shes sexyyy

 

[Rhall]

Should be interesting this year. I cant wait to see it run.

Im pretty sure TonyB has at least one LML block/engine, maybe more. Mr Watson should give him a call.

What I cant figure is how come he cant get parts? You'd think people would be falling all over themselves calling him to offer their parts for him to run. Wierd.

8 cylinder p-pump !! thats awesome:thumb: ! looks like he had to cut the front of the valley out on the block. looks like it will be a remote mount turbo as well.

 

[SmokeShow]

remote TRIPLE charger setup is what chris posted.

It has a completely new machined front cover for afixing the massive inline pump (you all did notice the pump is as long as the block, right? ).

When I see a thread about his truck, I J!$$ in my pants (think Lonely Island song :hehe: ). It should be pure badass!!

And I'm with tom, I can't believe he can't get the parts -especially the ones he says he's waiting for - crower rods and stroker crank.


Awesome! :rockon:

Didn't someone post a vid of that in a tractor? Or was that another max he built?

 

[x MadMAX DIESEL]

That was a totally different person... A European

Talked to Tony today. I'm ?on the list? for an LML block.
You would think so on the parts, but times are tough. Worst thing is, i've got money put back for most of the parts. I can't even get people to call me back with a price so I can make an order.

 

[Iceman56]

Prolly a dumb question but, why do you want a LML block??

 

[sddmax]

did they make improvements to the LML block?

 

[Brayden]

The LGH block looks to be regular grey nodular iron not CGI so I'm wondering if they just strengthened the casting a bit. I'd fill it and forget it

 

[mytmousemalibu]

Mr Watson....Thats without a doubt, the nastiest, evil, venomized Dmax ive ever seen! Very, very badass, finally we get to see a dmax of this caliber making headway (so to speak )

Im curious to LML differances too.

Terrible to hear your having parts issues, im confused aswell why nobodys throwin ya a bone in the parts dept. Hope you can get that straightened out, or somebody here can help move things along for ya! Could you go with Carillos or Howards?

Anymore pics or specs you might divulge, id love to hear! I understand how you might keep quiet on it though

Manditory video when it comes to life...... :beer:

 

[05' Ditry Duramax]

Wow, what a great engine. I'm just here to drool.

 

[SuperSonic]

LML supposedly weighs 30 to 40 lbs more than LBZ and has more material around the mains, more and thicker webbing, and possibly thicker cylinder walls.
I am planning on boring it out and putting darton sleeves in the block. That, along with the stroked crank, will put me right at the 460 cubic inch limit.

 

[sweetdiesel]

Cool:thumb:

 

[SmokeShow]

Did I hear recently that this sucker starts & runs now?!?!

 

[GeorgiaDuramax]

I would hope that it is running now.....

 

[whitetrash21]

Holy Crap! How do you even classify that as a duramax anymore??

Be cool to see this nonetheless.

 

[ecc_33]

I hope hes that close now, Its been along project for sure.
