Re: Sweet Cummins
I'm a diesel guy in general , I have a sweet spot for the 12 valves ... Not many many motors can go 1 million miles with out major repairs . I have 3 of the 12 valves , the one is pushing 650k with just a water pump and injection pump .
I also have 2 of the 24 valves ... and prefer the 12 valves as far as the simplicity , 12 valve in the stock form on the 1996 is 180 hp and maybe 420 ft ... not super impressive but change and plate and some injectors and you 350 hp 700 ft .
Theres goes the fuel mileage ... right now I with my stock 12valve I average 20 running around and have done 25 on the highway .
The 24 valves I have 375 hp I'm doing 17 with is not too bad ... I have had the 6.2 , 6.5 and powerstrokes ... I have seen them hit 350k nothing close to cummins .
Nice looking dually !
