Diesel Truck

[HardCore97]

thats the way it is by us. the diesels are either stock or stupid fast lol. i was reading somewhere last year that 10 of the fastest diesels in the country were in MO

[luvmyhondas]

I'll have a fast diesel someday, but it will be for pullin trailers, not 40 rolls.

[HardCore97]

i would love to have a cummins to enter into the truck pulling contest. cummins> the others

[H0NDA-MAN]

Guy I just met has a 1000hp Cummins, It was sweet. Usually stock diesels are in the 15-16 second range, just depends on what it is.

[HardCore97]

yeah those cummins are no joke. down here in the truck pulls they have a truck class and a cummins class lol. some guy in a chevy though he was a bad ass and tried to get into the cummins class. he didnt even make it halfway down the track. the cummins guys just race to see who can pull the weight to the end the fastest lol

you go sleepy

[B16inside]

I don't see most Cummins losing to a honda unless it has a decent amount done...

i disagree heres specs on the cummins introduced in 07

6.7 L Cummins


The 6.7 L Cummins is the latest in the B-series engines, introduced mid year in 2007. Rated at 350 HP & 650 lb-ft, it is also the most powerful B-series ever offered. The 5.9 ISB was replaced by the 6.7 to meet strict new diesel emission requirements. To meet such requirements, the 6.7 is equipped with an EGR (exhaust gas recirculation) system, a variable geometry turbocharger (VGT), and a diesel particulate fitler designed to reduce diesel particulate matter by more than 90 percent. A new, higher-pressure version of the Bosch direct injection system is used.


6.7 L Specifications:


Displacement: 408 cubic inches, 6.7 liters
Configuration: Inline 6 cylinder
Compression Ratio: 17.3:1
Bore: 4.21 inches
Stroke: 4.88 inches
Injection: Direct injection:
Electronically controlled Bosch high pressure common rail; 26,000 psi max.
Aspiration: Variable geometry turbocharger
Valvetrain: OHV, 4 valves per cylinder, solid lifter camshaft
Oil Capacity: 12 quarts
Weight: n/a
Horsepower: 350 HP @ 3,013 RPM
Torque: 650 lb-ft @ 1,500 RPM w/auto trans
610 lb-ft @ 1,500 RPM w/manual trans

6.7 L Cummins Facts
•Unlike the 5.9L Rams, manual transmission equipped 6.7L Rams have less torque output than the automatic equipped 6.7L Rams.
•The 6.7L maintains peak torque between 1,500 & 2,800 RPM.
•40 % of the 5.9L Cummins' engine parts were carried over to the 6.7L Cummins.
•The 6.7 features an integrated exhaust brake direct from the factory, which improves safety and vehicle control while towing.
•6.7 fuel injection system lowers noise, vibration, emissions, and increases fuel ecomony (in comparison to the 5.9 ISB).
•6.7L Meets strict NOx emission requirements for 2010 3 years in advance.
•Standard emission equipment includes a diesel particulate filter & exhaust gas recirculation system.
•Designed to safely run on B5 biodiesel.


so a swapped 2000ish pound civic against a 5000ish pound cummins pushin only 360 to the wheels i dont see that being much of a close race at all.

I disagree.

Why?

Torque.

650ftlbs of tq is 6 times what a mildly modified b series make .. i mean really trucks may weight 1/2 a ton but with that much tq they move just fine




oh and HOLY old thread bump WTF

[Capt'n Obvious]

i would rather cum than stroke thats all i gotta say about that
