Q: what really caught me was that cummins is only 10th yet duramax and powerchoke are ranked 6th and 5th respectively. agreed it made no sense to me either. every time you turn around your bumping into a cummins either as a truck engine stationary power plant donkey engine the list goes on. id like to see a dmax held at near its read line for a bit and see what happens. roy was looking at the diesel power magazine website today and noticed the had a top 10 list of their favorite oil burners. so i had to look. this one in particular raised an eyebrow. 8. wartsila-sulzer rta96-c * engine type two-cycle 14-cylinder inline * displacement 1556002 ci 25480l yikes! * bore and stroke 38x98 in roughly a 3 foot bore and 8 foot stroke! * aspiration turbocharged * governed speed 102 rpm * engine weight 2300 tons the city block-sized crank weights 300 tons * dimensions 89 feet long and 44 feet high * maximum power 108920 hp at 102 rpm * maximum torque 5608312 lb-ft at 102 rpm * efficiency 1660 gallons per hour of heavy fuel oil * why we dig it um do you really have to ask if this doesnt turn your crank you really dont get it. this engine is used to motivate container ships cruise liners and generates more power than some third-world countries. here is the link http//www.dieselpowermag.com/tech/general/0607dp10bestuseddieselengines/index.html -- ---------------------------- -chris 05 ctd 06 liberty crd real trucks dont need spark plugs. .

thank you sir have a great day no problem... have you made a couple of alignment dowels to get the pump lined up correctly if not theyre pretty simple to make. get a length of 5/16-18 all-thread from your local hardware store. cut two pieces about 4 long. screw these into opposite holes where the pump bolts thread into. now you can slip the gasket and pump onto the alignment dowels and start the other 5 pump bolts. unscrew the dowels and put the final two bolts in then torque them down. this is much easier than trying to line things up by hand hoping not to shift/tear the gasket in the process. .
