Turbo Cummins diesel 5.9 in a Dodge ram 3500 dualie...:drool:



(Durmaxs are junk.)
My dad has the 7.3L Ford diesel..20mph+ after his turbo problem he hasn't had any problems...but Fords are cheap, we need to put some extra springs in the front end because the frontend went down 2 inches...

Diesels rule and gas drools (at the sight of a diesel engine)
