    Need help I'm stranded

    That's what I meant. Without that sump you could hear it standing on the other side of ur truck while idling. Lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

    Need help I'm stranded

    The sump made that difference[emoji106]. They are crazy loud if you go to the quick connects at the fuel cooler. Love them for that!

    2017 Duramax

    I could be wrong, but that has to be a misprint. The Tier 3 QSB7 Cummins engines that we do here at work on our generators don't have any of that downwind exhaust stuff and they still are using the ancient HX35W turbos. We don't have any VGT/SCR stuff other than on our Tier 4 final units. I...

    And I thought Cat 3516s were big Lol. I wondered if it wasn't for peak shaving, its surprising how much of that gets done...especially in the summer. O and btw it is a V16...I had counted the ports in the intake manifold, but I just realized it has only 8 heads on a side.

    Had fun setting up another new unit for load test a couple weeks ago. Its a 56L V16 Guascor. Runs on Natural Gas. Has a 13,800V Generator. We had to transform that down to 480V which is what our load bank operates on.

    Favorite tool thread

    I have changed my view of Snap-On vs. Milwaukee in the last couple months. I was die hard Snap-On for years, but 6 months ago I changed jobs. The company buys the power tools for us guys and it is all Milwaukee. I must say my Snap-On 18V stuff sucks horrifically compared to the Milwaukee's. The...

    Some of the stuff I'm around .... obviously in not hauling the big one. .. took the little guy in the picture They are nice units! Those two QSB-7 units I had pictured earlier are for Hotfoil, not sure if any of you pipeline people recognize that name or not...I believe they are a company...

    Stock 01 TCM Tune

    May I get one as well? I got a weird shifting 04 W/ built trans I'm working on right now. It shifts great on Stock Trans Tunes, but just never seems to figure out the Max Effort Tunes even on a fast relearn. This might not fix my problem, but may be worth a try...

    Lol Yeh the Tier 4s suck to build if nothing else. All the after treatment junk adds a decent chunk of labor to a unit compared to a Tier 3. We figure 120-160hrs to build a Tier 3 Cummins Stud Welder vs. 250-300 for a Tier 4. Come 2017 and we'll only get to do the Tier 4s:(. We are checking into...

    I bet! I have no experience with boat engines, but I know that the Guascor 56L Bio-Gas engines I've overhauled are fun. They were only 1MW at the max though. Still 1430hp on Spark Plugs...running off cow manure... isn't too bad:D.
