Re: Living with the duramax vs the 6.0L?
The LB7 is a good simple (relatively speaking) design with the least amount of emissions BS. The injectors are the only real problem they have but at this point I’d think it’s safe to say that 90% or more of them left on the road have had the injectors done- that was a not if but when they fail problem. I’ve done them personally on a few LB7’s now and generally if you put good injectors back in them you won’t have any more issues for a long, long time. Bosch has upgraded and refined these injectors a few times and they are a lot better than they were 15+ years ago. At least that is my experience. The big downside to the L5P is all the expensive, trouble prone, emissions junk on it, it can be deleted but that is a whole other topic depending on where you live, emissions testing etc.
