@NNWarrior My truck weighs around 6300 lbs and i would assume a Chevelle would weigh in around 4000-4500 lbs.

@Warblade118 Certainly increasing the power decreases the lifespan of the engine, as is true with any engine. I can't argue whether it is more or less expensive then alternatives at the same e.t. since i don't have experience with other engines/vehicles. A setup similar to the one in this video can be had for under 5k in mods but may or may not stand the test of time. However with a built motor it has been reliable for years.

slow diesel!!

[MaxPowerLB7]

It's faster than your imaginary car that runs on hopes and dreams though isn't it?

those badass engines are finding their way into musclecars now! duramax are big,and heavy,but as we see they put out the power! ill bet boats are next on the list,if not already!

@MaxPowerLB7 Well depends how you get more power opened up my cousins 97 s10 just removed the stock intake componenets and removed the stock exhaust new igniton coil thing has alot more power. But if he stays out of the throttle it will probally last longer. Mainly cause of the exhaust removes back pressure and the extra pressure on the motor trying to shove the exhaust gases out.

diesel is god

@plumcrazybee Duramax built that engine with Isuzu. But the engine is built in the US. Can't say the same for the 6.0, 6.4, and 6.7 Ford has built in Mexico since they stopped using the 7.3

@plumcrazybee actually they are built right here in america by americans do you research instead of listening to other chevy haters.

@ThePumpiniron wow thats faster than a top fuel dragster...they do about 4.5 sec @ 320 mph

[deathfrombelow22]

I'm new to diesels... i just got an 04 LLY. What can I do to pinch pennies for horsepower??

[TopperRollinCoal]

Looks like Matt Larson's D-max. I've saw it run before if so, good stuff.

[ThePumpiniron]

lol your lucky that chevelle doesnt have to much in it i know a chevelle that will run that track in 4 seconds flat at 185 mph

[plumcrazybee]

How come you guys can't call a duramax what it is? Which is an ISUZU!!! Would that be the "heartbeat" of America? I'll keep my American built, slow, 7.3 Powerstroke (yep, International). Is the Duramax bad? No way in hell. I have several shop trucks with them. But get off the whole Duramax kick like they are good old American iron. Sorry to burst your bubble.
