I saw one in a cab and chassis truck at the dealer a few weeks ago , that engine bay is starting to get a little bit busier than it used to be....

But it is still ALOT better than a powerstroke under there...

I'm sure interested to see how they perform, hopefully they are as good or better than our 5.9's. Being a cummins I don't see that being a problem....but you never know.

Yea i would like to know what all has been done to them. On the dodge website it says they make less HP(i think like 5 or 10) than the 5.9. But just are able to tow more?

I read a while back on this site that they were increasing the bore and changing the stroke a little, not much. The block is supposed to be the same.

That is why I am hoping some electrical genius figures out a way to implant an Asian 6 speed...

the 6.7 for the chassis trucks is rated lower, but when they put it in the normal trucks it will be rated at 350hp and 650tq.

That's because the lighter trucks don't require a particulate filter and other power robbing emissions equipment .

I thought all new diesel trucks (2007) were required to have particulate filters, EGR and catalytic converters.

Your right XLR8R, ALL new diesel trucks, and cars too I think, require particulate traps and EGR, and as you know, hence the 6.7.
