that is probably because it is easier, but i never knew they put that motor in the f650s, that would probably explain why when i was looking under the hood of a 02 f250 and they had the belt configuration printed on the radiator shroud for a 5.9l cummins...

There are 2 trucks in the area that I know about that have built motors with a bunch of goodies.
You can make power really really quick for a cheaper price on a diesel then a gas truck(chip, intake, exhaust). But when you want to start going for the like 500ish+ it get extremely expensive extremely fast. I know modding anything is expensive especailly when going for lots of power. You have to remember diesels dont rev near as high as gas motors so it takes more of the factors that gain power then other cars.

^It would not suprise me.
I talked to my dad, he said both the hardcore modded trucks in the area are running fully built motors(custom built injection pumps, camshafts....) one is 630whp and the other is 718whp. He also said even at that level you need a built motor.

that is the same motor used in the 3/4 and 1 ton 12 valve dodges.... (94-98.5)
the first gen motors (89-93) were nearly identical cept small changes like the position of the top piston ring and they didnt use an inline Bosh pump like the 2nd 12 valve pickups did, they used a rotary style pumpIn 98.5 they switched to the 24 valve which is essentially the same block with a 24valve head and different fueling
and i would not be suprised in the least if that is a stock block .... at all
usually what is done is flow work on the head and O-ringing the head, and studs
do you realize how easy it is to get 800hp/1200fts + out of a 12 valve or 24 valve?? the problem is building your drivetrain to sustain this
once more is learned about the common rail system the power potential will be that much more
stock equipment in the f650 and a 3/4 ton dodge...... seems like an easy choice:icon_scratch:

uhh i def dont know about that..... i read religiously on a hardcore cummins forum.... and 450 is no problem even on a tiny ass 9cm2 hx35
my pickup would be at 550 wheel easily with a set of injectors, delivery valves, and governor springs and no head work or anytyhing... i cant do this becasue the converter and trany will not support the TQ created

Most of the big power diesels are stock blocks just head studs and headgaskets.yes he is exactly correct....+ oringed head
sorry got excited a little... but that is the other thing i like aside from rotarys..... mechanical pump cummins
