It's making over 250bhp and well over 600Nm of torque. We have not pushed it to get to the max. The torque it delivers, directly, when touching the throttle makes it a good drivable humvee.

@@sbrouwer3458 Thanks for the reply! Those are pretty good numbers from a 6.5 diesel. How much higher do you think it can go before reliability becomes an issue? Is 350-400bhp and 900-1000Nm out of the realm of possibility?

Of course.

No one answered.

Mine is smoking and this one not at all😂

It's called a CDR valve. It acts like a PCV on a gas engine but works a bit differently. You would not be able to just swap it out with a PCV valve.

@@sagacious11 thank u

your just jealous because you dont know any better. They have the same power rating as a cummins and weigh 300 lbs less !!! They use less fuel and are much better for driving and off roading. I think all you know is that you and your foolish friends dont know how to properly maintain one of these fine pieces of history that saved north americas ass

The cranks do not snap over 300 horsepower. You get a Fluidampr harmonic balancer, you ARP stud the top and bottom of the engine. Then add fuel, a 1:1 turbo, exhaust and you're ready to go. The cranks only snapped because the stock harmonic balancer literally fell apart due to a bad design. Look up banghart customs, they made 550 horsepower 6.5 with a turbo. Reliably. As far as the head gasket's blowing, blame the 2.5:1 drive ratio of the stock turbo. The stock turbo and stock harmonic balancer are to blame on this engine not the actual engine itself. Of course the engine itself could have been better but those two items were the major downfall.

You talk all about power... on a motor made for MPG... that got MPG lol...

You'd make a great politician with that inside box thinking.

You obviously haven’t done your homework.

Thanks, en ik zit in Noord Holland.

I find it to be special actually , but mostly interesting because my daily driver chevy suburban is powered by one of these , stock turbo of course , but this is still a pretty cool idea

That is nonsense. Cylinder configuration makes no difference. Especially in the case of a diesel under boost. More cylinders would be an advantage in fact.

@@geoffmooregm , see for yourself? A v6 diesel has less torque than an i6 diesel on a dynamometer. Have you ever rebuilt a diesel and put it on a dynamometer for 8 hrs?

@@sonnydayz2118 What you are saying makes no sense. Take the 6.7L diesels from Ford and Dodge (Cummins). Same displacements but the Ford makes more power and torque. Or if you look at an old Detroit 2 Stroke the 6-71 and 6V71 are rated identically and they are identical other than piston configuration.

@@geoffmooregm , I understand how you feel. I've been a heavy/mining equipment mechanic most of my working life and worked for a dealership (Komatsu) where we had to put engines on a dynamometer for 8hrs after the build, before releasing the engine from the rebuild department. I also rebuilt other brands of engines too, so I have seen the torque differences over various configurations of engine types. The v configuration saves space, with sacrificing performance. For instance a Detroit 4000 series is a v type configuration and would be as long as the mining haul truck, if inline. Same goes for the MTU 396 16V, or a Cummins QSK 60.

@@sonnydayz2118 But your not seeing a difference because of cylinder configuration. You are seeing a difference because of different displacement, compression, airflow, boost and fuel injection.

It is the same as with a screwtype. They are both connected to the same belt. The size of the pulley makes the difference.

@@sbrouwer3458 yes, but a centrifugal supercharger works like a turbo meaning they are more rpm limited. A screwtype gets less efficient with speed but it gives a more linear curve ?

@@FrmerK20 correct. A centrifugal supercharger wants revs to make power. A screw doesn't. A screw would have been far better.

The details of the engine and power are mentioned in pt 1

215 bhp and 510Nm 0.7bar pressure. Also they have tried a different pulley and it got up to 250bhp, 505Nm. At 0.90/0.95 bar.

@@sbrouwer3458 thats pretty good from a 6.5. Thanks

@@sbrouwer3458 marine versions were 250hp and way too smokey to install into road vehicles

I'm sorry! Perhaps I'm reading this wrong as I've been drinking. You're tell me that a Rotrex Supercharged 6.5 litre V8 "only" produces 250 bhp! With around 370 - 380 lbs ft of torque? You're joking right. Please tell me this is a joke. I work with someone that has a 1.9 litre Turbo 4 cylinder Seat that makes (after turning) 230bhp and 330 lbs ft. I fitted a rotrex supercharger to my EP3 Honda Civic and got great gains. Rotrex are very good. I'm stunned at how such a large capacity engine makes so little power once fitted and tuned to run a supercharger. That's embarrassing. Theres 3.0 litre 6 cylinder diesels that run more power than that as standard!

@@jimmyfarley5581 My exact words.

Correct

It will take a couple of weeks before it will be in the K30. And a couple more before it drives again!

Is that a kit? How do you order one?

@@TheSuperduty2006 the kits are not yet available for sale. The development is still going. It is possible to have an engine specially build with the kit.

@@sbrouwer3458 which kit is it? Small block chevy kit?

@@sbrouwer3458 I waa looking at bullets supercharger but this one looks to fit so much better.. Can't wait for a kit to become available
