Ronnie, get yer DIRK!!!
Too bad they didn’t realize that VP44 was junk. I loved my 24 Valve though I never should have sold it :/
The VP44 was the first to use computer controlled to make the EPA happy, Ford also did some major changes to their trucks as well, GM didn't even get started with the Duramax until 2000, That's when the Government really started sniffing around. Also People really complained about how loud the Cummins was compared to the Fords and Chevys. that's why they did all they could at that time to try and make them a little more quieter. Just had to be there.
the 24v the better engine than the 12v. Just not to many recognize that it actually is. Everyone is 12v happy
The reason everyone is 12 valve happy is because, it's all mechanical. No need for ECM's, PCM's, The EPA really started cracking down on diesels around that time. Just had to be there. Did you watch the whole Video?
@TheBlueCollarPreacher I watched the entire video I own a few of these 24v engines. They are better than a 12v. I get the 12v is mechanical and there great engines. But all the upgrades they made are better other than the vp44. they flow more air than a stock 12v they have more power than a stock 12v obviously. But the thing that people don't understand. Is you could put a set of injectors in and a tune with the stock turbo you can get about 420 rear wheel horsepower. If you put a bigger turbo on then you could get more. But the thing is you don't gotta screw with the injection pump just a nice fass fuel system like you would on a 12v. A tuner. A bigger set of injectors and get good power. There very reliable I never had a problem with one. I talk to all the old mechanics around here. They like them alot better than the 12v. Don't get me wrong the 12v is a great engine arguably the best. But they took the 12v and made it actually better. there's still no emissions the right amount of computers on it so it's always running optimal but not to many to where it's a nightmare to do anything. There alot cheaper as well. There a hidden diamond
Keep in mind the vp44 is like comparing dial up internet to fiber these days.
