I should have had them take a pic but they aren't very modern day tech savvy.Let me know how the motor mount was trimmed, so it can be incorporated into the stock kit. That looks like a nice unit. looks like an external ALDA.
That's what I thought.I should have had them take a pic but they aren't very modern day tech savvy.
I'll grab a pic when I open up the governor plate to look for any loose items. If that doesn't solve it I'll pull this M pump out and put the MW back in. I bought some MW pump injector lines so it will make it a little easier.
And yes external ALDA - that is what needed clearance
X2That install looks great Don. Looking forward to seeing/hearing it one day.
Mine was rolling coal this past weekend. Kind of a funny side story was my youngest and me going to the diesel truck show in Englishtown (about 30 minutes away). I would give it some throttle in the first couple of gears while going thru the lot - must have had some folks scratching there heads. Had a huge work truck (crane type back with a chassis/can I have never seen before) give me huge props. Meanwhile his rig was the coolest looking of all the big trucks there.That's what I thought. When HH visited, he had a similar setup, but he was rolling coal big time. He had loads of power... it was quick. I wish someone would do a 6.5 mm setup. That would put us between 170 and 200 HP with reasonable economy. I've been talking to Dieselmeken in Sweden about a 6.5 mm M-IP, but so far no joy. Have also talked to people who have modified the MW-IP with larger plungers, but it is suppose to be really complicated to adjust where the M-IP is much much simpler (so have been told). X2
Claude... I have two extra OM617s on a little trailer out here in Phoenix. One gets stuck when turning it by hand (prior to even testing it to see if it runs).hi
I have a Defender 110 with a 300 TDI with a R380 and LT230,
I have found 2 X OM603 Mercedes engine, 1987
Is your transplant kit will work for this engine, or its only for the OM617
If so, do you still have it available
And how much do you charge for the kit,
Do you have any recommendation
Can I contact you by phone
(514) 953-3218
Thanks
Claude
It was about 21 seconds, by the wayI got bored on a drive today and tested 0-60 time as a benchmark. I think the power is more than sufficient to avoid being a hazard to other drivers. The ole 2.5 na would have never made it to 60 without a downhill grade. https://youtu.be/6W_5Fv5Zojw
Not that bad for a big heavy brick! I'll have to do a 0-60 on my OM617 with the M-IP to see how it compares.It was about 21 seconds, by the way
Or a good old fashioned drag race might be better.Not that bad for a big heavy brick! I'll have to do a 0-60 on my OM617 with the M-IP to see how it compares.
That would be fun!Or a good old fashioned drag race might be better.
We set the boost to 19 on our Iveco 2.8 Liter TD powered 110 (same engine as the Land Rover Santana PS-10) and the head gasket was blown in about 250 miles.Don, been at work alot lately not keep up with your build, looks excellent!!!!,
New. 315's & set alda back to paint marks when it came.
Makes a huge difference them new injectors, RD kinda got cheated when visiting due to only 2 or 3 injectors working at low pressures and other two defunct.
Running 14lbs boost n kinda remembering the KKK's better performance with the frozen wastegate making me think on trying 16lbs for fun.
Big difference the more boost it gets, someone mentioned going to 20 n better but I'm too cautious.
Glad to read it's working for you!!!
