I just bought a 2001 GMC topkick with the 3126 cat and Alison. I'm going to use it to pull my pressure washing trailer how do I boost the power up a bit I do believe it's 210hp if like too get it to the 250-280hp range .
you don't if you want it to remain reliable. The lower hp 3126 are almost different engines lol if you want to go more then a 10hp raise cat requires you to change out 10 main parts for each 10hp im overdoing it there but thats pretty much what its like, my school bus 190hp is a way different engine then the 250hp engine if I want to go to 210 I need to change pistons and a flywheel amoungst other things, also use cat advanced filters and do oil changes often
Haha. That will be a really cool and fun build and haven't see anyone put a 3126 in a ram yet! But thanks. Bet I'll have to hammer the heat shield a little!
@@roundsm18 UM NO... 3126 is Mechanical (Found in some trucks but mostly boats and offroad equipment), 3126B Is Electronic (HEUI) and 3126E was 2004 Emissions Compliant Vehicular engine...
Deboss garage does a good video on these engines. When I worked sanitation all the oldest can't kill em trucks had these engines in them and they run better than some of the newer trucks with cummins.
Smoke is incomplete combustion of the paraffin in the diesel. It means it is running rich. A true test of an engine is blow by. I'm not a big fan of the 3126 CAT. It has no sleeves for a rebuild. I like the International DT360. It has wet sleeves.

first time I've seen a 3126 all mechanical
The B models are mechanical. 3126Es are electronic.
@@roundsm18 How do you think a 3126B will fit in a 85 Dodge Ram W350?

Why so much smoke ?!
