Some of you people are so stupid. Somebody says something about your precious 7.3 and you talk out of your ass like some ignorant fucking idiot. As far as maintenance oil changes were at every 3,000 miles. Maybe the oil was to clean why what dropped a valve into the cylinder at 150,000 miles. Fucking idiot take your fucking opinions wad it up and shove it up your ass you fucking idiot
Why does everybody get so buthurt when somebody says a certain engine is more reliable than another. The Chevy is more reliable than the Ford 7.3s not a stronger engine. I worked on a fleet of Ford's and Chevys. And you stupid idiot you think all mechanics are parts changers. If you want proof about what I say your are welcome to. come to the bus yard and look at the records. And also you dumb shit what engine had a llonger run the 7.3 or the small block Chevy? And I don't own a Chevy but
@ero1946 Did you come out of a bucket of infected piss??? You are no damn mechanic. You are some dipshit kid fucking on the computer. The EPA was the cause of the 7.3 demise. It would still be offered today if not. Just like N-14 Cummins, 6NZ CAt and many others. Just admit the only POS you could make run was the 350. Lying old cocksucker! LOL!!!
Hey guys I made the comments about diesels just to ruffle your feathers. It was all in fun. By the way I have a 1997 Ford E450 bus with a 7.3 about 25 feet in length. With 98,000 miles. I use as a motorhome I bought it for 2 dollars . But like I said they're strong but more trouble than a gas rig.
Maybe some you guys can't comprehend what you read. I don't own a Chevy. And I am a retired school bus mechanic and we had a fleet of Fords E450's and Chevy 350 C30 vans. I went on numerous service calls for those pieces of shit. The Ford's 7.3s could not compare when it comes to reliability. And dumb ass I drove them all the time
salmon8 man. I invite you to come to the bus maintenance yard where I retired from. You can look at all the records of every bus. Then you can see your the Ass hole full of shit. I never said the Chevy would out pull a diesel but is not near as reliable as the Chevy. And I dont own a Chevy
As a retired bus mechanic, every Cat 3116 did not make it to 150,00 miles before it blew. A 7.3 blew at 1500,000 that was a 2002. That Cummins needed a new head at a little over 120,00. The Detroit 6V92 blew at 200,00. On the other hand the Cummins 290, IHC 466 were great trouble free engines. By the way I do not own a Chevy.
Nitrorustler I said the Chevy 350 will a lot more reliable not out pull the 7.3. As a retired bus mechanic I worked on Cummins.your IHC built 7.3 and the Duramax. Never said they can't out pull but they leak oil, go thru turbos, injectors, blow head gaskets completely blow up. Every one had engine oil changed at 3,000 miles. Required school bus maintenance. You probaley say mine has been good but I doubt you put miles like a bus. Every Chevy we has over 300,000 miles and a 98 close to 400,000
@ero1946 Because a 350 never leaks right? You are so full of shit you're eyes turned brown. Shut up already, no one wants to hear about your fucken chevy 350 or they would be watching videos of that engine. Why are you a HATER? Go suck at life somewhere else.....
All the talk of the Powerstroke like it's a Ford engine. The 7.3 is made by International. Then you got Dodge with a Cummins They both might have pulling power but as a retired mechanic I wouldn't own any of them. We had both engines on school busses and you get is oil leaks, turbos going out, bad injectors, blown engines, fuel leaks on the 7.3. We had on 7.3 blow at 150,000 miles. By comparison the 350 Chevys all getting over 300,000 with one at 390.000 miles and going strong. Every oil chan
lets line up your 136 hp POS chevy with my powerstroke and see who will get better mpg, win the race, haul the bigger trailer or last the longest....You name it, I'll beat a chevy 350 any time any event.
@ero1946 oh one of those diesel non believers... the 7.3 is good but the Cummins is by far the best speakin of which... what 2 engines are in the million mile club??? ill give you a hint neither are 350s you MUST be exaggerating because I know thats false in comparison I have numerous buddies with both trucks and not one has blown an engine... funny there all heavily modded too. not to say the 350s are bad but you sir are very misinformed. btw the Duramax sucks big ones talk about bad injectors!
@ero1946 You are dumb! F*^K your SHIT-vrolet 350. This is a video about diesels you MORON. Just to show your ignorance and bias, why would you not point out the fact that the Duramax is made by ISUZU.... Why are you comparing apples to peices of shit. I'll drive my diesel (7.3L) or any diesel any day before a gasser POS. You suck.
@ero1946 its because the operators of the vehicles did not operate the diesel engine properly. Also diesels were not made to be city engines diesel are line haul engine's I like to see a 350 Chevy pull 18K or more... My 98 Cummins has 224K on it no problems... I belive you had drivers and not operators....
@ero1946 You do mean the 350 with 130 hp, that gets 8 MPG, right? The one with the coolant bleeder housing made of pot metal that rots off? The same one with the intake gaskets that fail and mix the coolant and oil? The ones with the center valve cover bolts that leak onto the exhaust like crazy? The ones that burn plug wires off on the manifolds if not held in place? And the TBI "spider" that dumps fuel and craps out? You must be talking about the other 350. Cause the one's i know, suck.
@ero1946 You must be one real cracker jack mechanic then. What a loser! Now we know why they retired your sorry old no wrench turning ass. You were a wasted paycheck. I own a company and have used over 13 7.3s. Still have 6 and wish we had kept them all. Do your maintenance and they are good for at least 750K. Bet those buses get about 2 mpg with Chevy loser engine. Stay retired. You suck! LOL POWERSTROKE BABY!! 7.3 The only way to ride.
Dont do it unless you have a double disk, it WILL ruin your clutch.... but the easiest way is to get a line lock like drag racers use. pump the brakes to gwet pressure up then engage line lock. now you can keep the wheels locked up and have total control over the clutch pedal. bring Revs up 2000rpm-ish and start pulling clutch out. let the motor load up, and boost will come up. dump the clutch and let go of linelock at the same time....and she'll haul the mail.
@9312valve if you dont want a linelock, you gotta turn your right foot sideways and mash down on the brakes with your toes, and push the throttle down with your heel then the rest is the same. but definetly more tricky this way. best off buying a cheap Hurst linelock if you wanna do a boosted launch
This is full of shit, I own a trucking company and used to rent ford 350 SUPER DUTY to tow 20 thousand pound generators to cement plants. The Ford struggled at top speed of 20 miles per hour, and could barely make the climb at 15 degrees for half a mile even with 4 WD. I bought a Dodge 3500 6.1 HEMI, to pull the 20 thousand pound generator, and I, must say VERY IMPRESSIVE at 55 miles per hour on the freeway, and the 15 degree climb at the cement plant was stunning; no problems; time cost money
Right that's all well, good for you guys you like your trucks. My experience with an 01 is different, it couldn't pull 4 horses in a gooseneck up a levee, so we got a cummins and it did the job. Quicker maybe, but not cut out for pulling anything near heavy In my experience, of course someone will have a fit when they read this and tell me how great theyre 7.3 is, it's not bad it's just not a puller lol. ALL I'm saying is I go by my experience, not what sells the most or has the largest motor
Hmm right on then I'm glad you like your trucks. My experience with them is different, our companies 01 7.3 couldn't and still can't pull 4 horses and an aluminum gooseneck up a small levee. So that's my experience, I'll stick with the straight six thank you
Driver wanted a ford cause that's who made his parents falcon or his first mustang or his old f100. Those are no diesels, ford all bit fails at light duty diesels, and I'm telling you at least a safe estimate of 70% of the powerstrokes on the road are there for the exact reasons I mentioned, all having nothing to do with the actual performance, reliability, or longevity of the vehicle itself. In laymens terms, ford good, ford diesel bad
Clowntownpowerjoke... I've been out of this conversation for quite awhile now. There are plenty of morons who buy ford diesels cause they look strong, big front end "built ford tough" as they say. It has very little to do with the quality of the truck amigo, it's a ford following. Yes ford is a very successful motor company, yes they have quite a few light duty diesels on the road, not because of the performance or quality or price difference compared to competitors, it's simply because the dri
dodge is the automatic. My ford is stickshift. You cant really bang gears like its a mustng. these transmissions are big and heavy, thats about as good as it gets with a ZF5
I love how these disputes always end up falling back on engines alone. 94-01 Dodge trucks were pieces of shit. The trannys were pitiful garbage. The vp44 injection pumps were garbage. The engines were fantastic. Put up a first gen against an early model 7.3 if you want a decent competition. That Dodge has nothing to do with the Cummins. The engines had plenty of power; the tranny and the truck just couldn't deliver it to the pavement. That gen of trucks gave Dodge a bad name.
@losiboy454 yeah i saw that on the diesel power website. with cummins being number ten, dmax being number 5, and the 7.3 liter being number 4. thats sweet.
@Duramax0n40s Not trying to offend you but the Duramax is a LOT newer than that powerstroke in the video. That 7.3l is basically an early 90's motor with a few new technology items placed on it, turbo, hpop, different injectors.... you get the idea. The Duramax was released in 2001, a lot of technology can be created in 4 years, let alone since 1994.5 when the powerstroke was released. The point I am trying to make is that you are comparing apples to oranges in some senses.
Mxrider... I can't argue with that. All are good in there own way, if it suits the owner. I love my cummins, it has an II silver bullet, mp90 supercharger, SDX 200hp sticks, edge juice stacked with a smarty, exhaust, studs, etc. But I went through 3 stock trannys and 2 injection pumps since 99 before upgrading, and the truck was stock. I hate dodge, I just love cummins. Ford makes a better truck overall yes, but for me, theres no comparison with the motors. That's just for me, sorry for getting
@simplemann101 i mean its so many people dont understand the 6.0. It truely is a good motor just you have to know what you are doing with that motor shes a tricky one. And yeah i had a dodge while back 96 cummins 12 valve. like you only got it because of the cummins in it. but the truck its self was crap. i think as it this way you have a million mile motor but a 100,000 mile truck.. but still yet i like all trucks they are all different and work in their own way and i understand you lovin yours
Obviously a child, has to be. So I'll say it again... Look up supercharged cummins in cab. Then, look up comments, it's obvious I bought his setup for my 99 cummins. Your just too thick headed to admit a 6 leaker is not very reliable compared to every other diesel made within ten years of it. Just accept it lol
Lol no, I'm not stupid enough to listen to other people, I'm savvy enough to not get swindled into buying something that has a tough looking front end but falls apart. I don't have any videos of me driving a duramax cause I own a cummins. Of course mxqueefjuice won't believe that, cause everyone that doesn't like his precious truck on YouTube is
The only way to make a 6.0 reliable and powerful is to swap it with ANYTHING besides that motor. Even your buddy with the 7.3 calls em six leakers. You dont have to defend it cause you drive one, I'll still accept you lol
@simplemann101 im defending it because it is truely a good motor but youre too stupid to realize that. you just think one engine is good because everyone on the internet says so. hell youre probably not even old enoguh to drive.probably some kid, well that atleast what you sound like. my family has owned serval different diesels and i have owned 2 myself. they all are good in their own ways.i mean its not like 7.3's dont have any problems lol they barely even fuckin start in the cold lol
@nitrorustler41 yeah i know that is the trick but i see some 7.3 owners around here that dont know that and that just sit there and crank and crank and crank makes me sad i just said that 7.3's because i was trrying to find something bad to say about them.. just trying to make my point all trucks have problems and all are good in their own way..
It's not about listening to idiots online, there are quite a few. It's about the lawsuit against ford for the 6.0s, it's about the tens or millions ford paid in warranty coverage for that model alone, it's about them constantly changing their engine setup to try and find the right one. Finally they built their own (scorpion) and it looks solid. I doubt Internet idiots influenced the court system in the lawsuit against ford...
Bro....ur bitchin about the 6.0 on a 7.3 and cummins vid.....shit i call em 6leakers too. they suck, ya we all know that. oh ya and the 6.4 dominates any newer truck engine. a 6.4 with KEM tunes will outrun a EFI live Dmax end of story
@nitrorustler41 agreed the 6.0s suck but navistars the ones who built emm not ford so u cant blame ford all that much.. actually did you kno navistar the company ford had make there engines owns cummins also maybe dodge paid em to fuck over ford.. but who knos.. teh new powerstrokes slaughter any rig on the road.. 735 pound foots of torque and handles like a ford taraus.. now how many companies have made a big ass truck with massive power handle like a front wheel drive v6? one ford
Not every 6.0 was horrible, but look at the FACTS. millions upon millions in warranty coverage resulting in a class action lawsuit. Ford is the most successful motor company of all time I'll admit it. But with diesels they arent the greatest. It shouldn't take egr delete and aftermarket studs to hold a stock engine together, that's not reliable. Keep in mind this is powerstroke I'm talking about, not ford. They can be made reliable when little is done to them, but they really arent competitors
@simplemann101 Well you seem like you really talk down on the 6.0 just thank Commifornia for all this emmisions shit. If it wasnt for the emissions the 6.0 would be just fine and it is once you by pass all that which isnt exspensive and also the 7.3 and the mighty 12 valve and everything would be around. Yeah they didnt choose the best things for the emission controlled 6.0 but just some few bills and a weekend with some guys in your garage and that 6.0 is bullet proof.
@simplemann101 And yeah you shouldnt have to put that on there and all but all trucks have problems. Dodges before i got rid of mine was on it 4 th tranny, chevys seem to act up with injectors and fords are known for the egr and oil cooler going bad but that can all be fixed. im not a fan boy of any truck love all American trucks as long as they arent toyotas or nissans i dont care i like them. Every truck is unique and good in its own way one will never be perfect.
Were not talking about medium duty you goober, this is about powerstroke in pickup trucks. Take your thumb out of your ass and present actual facts about the pickups, not school buses. Not every ford diesel was bad. But it's not really ever been the top dog, and if you can't see that, your delirious.
One or a few instances of one company beating another doesn't speak for either ad a whole. But lawsuits, tens of millions in warranty coverage, and maybe one ford for every 25-30 cummins? That speaks strongly for a truck. Your entitled to like what you want, and an opinion, but the apparently hard to swallow fact for you my friend is you drive a truck inferior to so so many, your "powerstroke" failed the test of time and is the bottom of the barrel in the diesel competition world
@simplemann101 im sorry to inform you but there are more diesel powered fords on the road than dodge and gm combined. so ford must be doing something right. and i dont see how you can say theyve failed the test of time. i realize that you see more cummins powered vehicles at tractor pulls or drag races thats more due to a price to power ratio it has nothing to do with whos better just like chevy over gas performance the cheaper one to build will always have a higher number of entries
Bottom line is the ford 7.3l powerstroke was the only marginally decent one ever built. You can make ignorant claims like "oh they do the towing" but that's a just an obviously uneducated statement. The FACTS are that yes, there was a class action lawsuit against ford for their six leaker, ford has changed their motor (block included unlike some other companies) multiple times, and they still have trouble getting it together.
Flowerpoke baby! Flowerpoke baby! Too bad that engine was replaced by the 6 leaker, which had a class action law suit brought against it. Why don't I ever really see power strokes at the pulls or drags that much? Let alone win the pulls or drags (yes including your only semi bragging right 7.3)? Cause they are bush league my naive yahoo friends. Put put a straight 6 in your truck and quit going both ways :)
because the 7.3's are the ones towin all the sorry ass broken tie-rod piece of shit chevys home and dodges when the fuckin dowel pin falls out. fuck off buddy. look at any medium duty international truck and if its got a t444e badge....yup....thats a 7.3 powerstroke.....just like every schoolbus you drive by. theyre durable, strong and last dam near forever
@nitrorustler41 so are you arguing the Chevys Tie-Rod ends? or the Duramax motor itself? Cause if a tie rod snaps that has nothing to do with the motor...if a Ford could do a 4x4 burnout then maybe the same could be said, and the dowel pin was only a B-Series motor problem. lol, by your own standards of judging one could say all Ford diesels suck cause the 6.0 was garbage.
@nitrorustler41 second, who holds the World Record for HP in a diesel light duty pick-up...a Duramax, and Ford had more HP and Torque than the Chev in Motor Trends comparison and the Chev still won in pulling power. Ha!
@HurtsToPee2011 ill put a 6.4 powerstroke against any duramax. i drive a stock '10 powerstroke pulling a 10000# hoist walk my bosses chipped '10duramax when hes pulling a4500# trailer and get the same milage and not to mention he had overheating issues and a spartan tuned 6.4 powerstroke makes the most hp than any other diesel on STOCK PARTS and the trans hold more than 600hp stock. send 600hp through an allison and ull be sweeping it up with a broom and dust pan
@ctownpowerstroke well, to each is own. I can dig up lots of info against everything you just said but it's like apples and oranges. I know lots of people that own one of all three and the rivalry is what keeps it fun. Im a Chev guy and will never go to anything else. 2005 LLY w lots o mods..lol Cheers
@HurtsToPee2011 chevy seemed to have injector problems and turbos in the 03-04 trucks allison transmissions are way overrated and the new 6.7 cummins has egr and dpf problems and likes to eat injectors around 50k miles and ive seen some powerstrokes do 4 and 6 wheel burnouts. and im sorry if you trust motor trends testing that much ive seen real world results and im stickin with ford overall workhorse
@ctownpowerstroke yeah, i don't trust motor trend on everything, its just an example. Lots of test's you see on TV are very biased and it comes down to the owner. 01-04.5 had lots of injector problems, 04.5-06 were the turbo mouthpieces which caused overheating. I really don't think and of the three comes from the factory in prime but w some mods they sure wake up then. How does it go? Cummins in a Ford w a Chev ride?
@HurtsToPee2011 agreed its kinda bullshit you buy a 50000 to 60000 thousand dollar truck from the factory and its only makin 75 to 80% of its power just so they can warrant it build the damn things so they can perform at 100% power and pass the emissions shit and be reliable. oh and imo my 1 ton ford rides better than any of the company trucks (all 3/4 chevys 06 08 and 10 ) and the guys that ride with me say theres more leg room in the back
@ctownpowerstroke my buddy Donovon has a Dodge Mega Cab and the leg room in that thing is stupid. Better than Chev. But imo Chev's have the best ride, Dodge best motor, and Ford best looking truck. Im not a huge fan of IFS but my 2500 Duramax has yet to blow front end parts, including Tie-Rod ends. I hear lots about the Ford's and Dodge's being famous for ball joint's with the solid front end?
@HurtsToPee2011 my truck is close to the mega cab but my back seat doesnt recline and yes dodge has a shitty ride ford and chevy are close i think mine smoother and with the front end ifs or solid axle its alot to how much abuse it sees as with anything but ik the company truck chatter bad when we put them in 4wd and pulling anything i havent had any more problems with the solid axle than anyone with the ifs. ive got a buddy with a 07 mega cab and put a frontend under it around 60k miles
@simplemann101 Whats wrong with the 6.0? EGR delete kit and ARP head studs that engine is bulletproof. Its idiots who destroy the trucks and they go run their cock suckers and give the trucks a bad name because they dont know what the hell they are doing. The 6.0 is one hell of a engine but know onw wants to believe it because they listen to all the idiots on the internet who talk down on it and dont even know what they are really talking about.
wow so much hostility. The way i see it is I live on a ranch and ya its great to have the more powerful motor which is hands down the cummins. But we run all ford 7.3l's and they are great motors. We have one thats in a f450 that pulls as good as any truck on the road we pulled 14 ton of hay to the denver zoo and it did fine. From what i have heard from even dodge owners is that the trucks are shit the cabs dont hold up and the frame are paper thin. But the cummins is why they buy the truck.
I'm a ford guy all the way got a 89 7.3 idi no race car but it's just a old truck lots of torque in the bottom end but 0 top end ... I'm. A fan of the cummins great motor inline 6 perfect set up for max power stock but on YouTube you never know for sure what guys really have under the hood ... V-8 is the most efficient engine setup ... Do that right mods in the right places inline 6 can't touch it but stock vrs stock I'd stick with the cummins
you won cuz you have a 5 speed... come on, before forreal, anyone who knows trucks will automatically know that powerstrokes are complete garbage... its in the name.... powerstroke diesel V8 <<< right there v8. lol come on, dont seriously sit and say a v8 is better than an inline 6.... ask ford why they dont use the power stroke in any of their bigger models... lets say the 750? hmmm, dodge uses their motor in their commercial vehicles
Yeah but you'll blow your trans in the race so you might win, but atleast I wont be riding home on a flatbed. Youll be lucky if your balljoints dont come flyin out when you hit 65 mph too, then your really fucked.
so why dont you bring your shit box out here and we can take em on some trails and see who comes out on top. do some stuff a truck really made to do.......wait dont bother.....youll get embarassed. til then chooch me where my nono stinks
@nitrorustler41 Your a fucking idiot. The 7.3 Powerstroke is a DOG!!!! The Tranny in the Cummins is alot better than whats in YOUR POS forsure! Youll be lucky if your driveshaft doesent drop when your towing even the smallest load! Or if the turbo doesent blow at 2500RPM, then your really fucked!
So why dont you bring your shit box ou here and we can take the trucks on a little towing trip and see who comes out on top?
@MotoX179 Haha your funny. I got a built ZF5 man. Hes got a shitty factory dodge slushbox, and actually Ive run my shit to 3600 rpm.....turbos doin just fine not a hint of shaft play. My truck tugs trailers around like no problem.
@nitrorustler41 your truck cant tow anything compared to a cummins. The powerstroke isnt a "true" diesel. A true Diesel uses an I-6 design, to produce maximum torque at the lowest possible RPM. My truck STOCK makes 625 Ft-LBS at the rear wheels (I got it dyno'd) at 1,618 RPM and 335 RWHP at 2,851 RPM. I tow 12,000LBS (Hitch Tow RV) and around 800 LBS in the box of the truck. I tow it up Steep, long, Gravel roads, that you HAVE to be in 4LOW to make it up. (Continue to next post) >>
@nitrorustler41 Ive never had An issue with my tranny, and every time I check my transmission fluid, shes bright red (just like new). Never had an issue with slipping, or harsh gear changes. If I havent already told you, its a bonestock 48RE, which is a much better tranny than what comes stock in the 7.3. Depends on how you drive your truck I guess. The way your driving in this video, tells me that your a young guy, who doesent know the true meaning of money, and thinks diesels are for racing.
On maybe your shitass VP pump will take a fat shit on ya, cuz I know that likes to happen real often to. Go ahead and come on back talk some more smack. Ill lay it on thicker and heavier as we go killa
Cummins still wishes they could be in Fords.. As I always say, you buy the Cummins and the Dodge comes with it... 7.3's were the balls of the mid 90's and early 2000's
Some of you people are so stupid. Somebody says something about your precious 7.3 and you talk out of your ass like some ignorant fucking idiot. As far as maintenance oil changes were at every 3,000 miles. Maybe the oil was to clean why what dropped a valve into the cylinder at 150,000 miles. Fucking idiot take your fucking opinions wad it up and shove it up your ass you fucking idiot

Hey guys I made the comments about diesels just to ruffle your feathers. It was all in fun. By the way I have a 1997 Ford E450 bus with a 7.3 about 25 feet in length. With 98,000 miles. I use as a motorhome I bought it for 2 dollars . But like I said they're strong but more trouble than a gas rig.
ero1946 4 weeks ago
Maybe some you guys can't comprehend what you read. I don't own a Chevy. And I am a retired school bus mechanic and we had a fleet of Fords E450's and Chevy 350 C30 vans. I went on numerous service calls for those pieces of shit. The Ford's 7.3s could not compare when it comes to reliability. And dumb ass I drove them all the time

salmon8 man. I invite you to come to the bus maintenance yard where I retired from. You can look at all the records of every bus. Then you can see your the Ass hole full of shit. I never said the Chevy would out pull a diesel but is not near as reliable as the Chevy. And I dont own a Chevy

As a retired bus mechanic, every Cat 3116 did not make it to 150,00 miles before it blew. A 7.3 blew at 1500,000 that was a 2002. That Cummins needed a new head at a little over 120,00. The Detroit 6V92 blew at 200,00. On the other hand the Cummins 290, IHC 466 were great trouble free engines. By the way I do not own a Chevy.
ero1946 1 month ago
Nitrorustler I said the Chevy 350 will a lot more reliable not out pull the 7.3. As a retired bus mechanic I worked on Cummins.your IHC built 7.3 and the Duramax. Never said they can't out pull but they leak oil, go thru turbos, injectors, blow head gaskets completely blow up. Every one had engine oil changed at 3,000 miles. Required school bus maintenance. You probaley say mine has been good but I doubt you put miles like a bus. Every Chevy we has over 300,000 miles and a 98 close to 400,000

@ero1946 Because a 350 never leaks right? You are so full of shit you're eyes turned brown. Shut up already, no one wants to hear about your fucken chevy 350 or they would be watching videos of that engine. Why are you a HATER? Go suck at life somewhere else.....
salmon8ter 1 month ago
All the talk of the Powerstroke like it's a Ford engine. The 7.3 is made by International. Then you got Dodge with a Cummins They both might have pulling power but as a retired mechanic I wouldn't own any of them. We had both engines on school busses and you get is oil leaks, turbos going out, bad injectors, blown engines, fuel leaks on the 7.3. We had on 7.3 blow at 150,000 miles. By comparison the 350 Chevys all getting over 300,000 with one at 390.000 miles and going strong. Every oil chan

@9312valve
Dont do it unless you have a double disk, it WILL ruin your clutch.... but the easiest way is to get a line lock like drag racers use. pump the brakes to gwet pressure up then engage line lock. now you can keep the wheels locked up and have total control over the clutch pedal. bring Revs up 2000rpm-ish and start pulling clutch out. let the motor load up, and boost will come up. dump the clutch and let go of linelock at the same time....and she'll haul the mail.
nitrorustler41 2 months ago
@9312valve if you dont want a linelock, you gotta turn your right foot sideways and mash down on the brakes with your toes, and push the throttle down with your heel then the rest is the same. but definetly more tricky this way. best off buying a cheap Hurst linelock if you wanna do a boosted launch

This is full of shit, I own a trucking company and used to rent ford 350 SUPER DUTY to tow 20 thousand pound generators to cement plants. The Ford struggled at top speed of 20 miles per hour, and could barely make the climb at 15 degrees for half a mile even with 4 WD. I bought a Dodge 3500 6.1 HEMI, to pull the 20 thousand pound generator, and I, must say VERY IMPRESSIVE at 55 miles per hour on the freeway, and the 15 degree climb at the cement plant was stunning; no problems; time cost money

It's not about listening to idiots online, there are quite a few.

Finally they built their own (scorpion) and it looks solid. I doubt Internet idiots influenced the court system in the lawsuit against ford...

One or a few instances of one company beating another doesn't speak for either ad a whole. But lawsuits, tens of millions in warranty coverage, and maybe one ford for every 25-30 cummins?

Your entitled to like what you want, and an opinion, but the apparently hard to swallow fact for you my friend is you drive a truck inferior to so so many, your "powerstroke" failed the test of time and is the bottom of the barrel in the diesel competition world

Bottom line is the ford 7.3l powerstroke was the only marginally decent one ever built. You can make ignorant claims like "oh they do the towing" but that's a just an obviously uneducated statement.

So why dont you bring your shit box ou here and we can take the trucks on a little towing trip and see who comes out on top?

@MotoX179 Haha your funny. I got a built ZF5 man. Hes got a shitty factory dodge slushbox, and actually Ive run my shit to 3600 rpm.....turbos doin just fine not a hint of shaft play. My truck tugs trailers around like no problem.

@nitrorustler41 your truck cant tow anything compared to a cummins. The powerstroke isnt a "true" diesel. A true Diesel uses an I-6 design, to produce maximum torque at the lowest possible RPM. My truck STOCK makes 625 Ft-LBS at the rear wheels (I got it dyno'd) at 1,618 RPM and 335 RWHP at 2,851 RPM. I tow 12,000LBS (Hitch Tow RV) and around 800 LBS in the box of the truck. I tow it up Steep, long, Gravel roads, that you HAVE to be in 4LOW to make it up. (Continue to next post) >>

@nitrorustler41 Ive never had An issue with my tranny, and every time I check my transmission fluid, shes bright red (just like new). Never had an issue with slipping, or harsh gear changes. If I havent already told you, its a bonestock 48RE, which is a much better tranny than what comes stock in the 7.3. Depends on how you drive your truck I guess. The way your driving in this video, tells me that your a young guy, who doesent know the true meaning of money, and thinks diesels are for racing.

Cummins still wishes they could be in Fords.. As I always say, you buy the Cummins and the Dodge comes with it... 7.3's were the balls of the mid 90's and early 2000's
