Breaking Point 2: How far can you push a Duramax?

[BigFish]

H&S is about to see how far a "bolt on" Duramax will go at 2:00pm today. They did this in febuary w/ a 6.7 powerstroke and got 884hp 1600tq before the transmission let go. They are streaming live at:

Will be interesting to see what fails...

I'll be watching this

the allison is only rated for 6-650 ft lbs

Live now

The trans on this one has already been "built".

I expect the pistons to crack and let go first.

I'm thinking low 900's on the bottle

900hp 1837tq on spray w/ the tires breaking loose on the dyno

All the 18 year olds who now think their duramax can safely make 1k without internals. Interesting marketing concept though!

Of course they can, its daddy's money! How many 18 year olds do you know who could independently afford a new Duramax?

Well.....their daddy's money is green too, right?


That was a pretty good watch. I was pretty interested in the 6.7 Scorpion too. I had always heard Ford got their mess together with that one.
