800 HP Marine Camshaft Swap - 14.6L Caterpillar 6NZ C-15 Diesel Engine - Peterbilt 379 EXHD

- Опубліковано 29 вер 2024
- Swapping out the stock 6NZ camshaft for the 10R7155 cam, better known as the 800 horsepower marine cam.
This was just an experiment to see for myself if I would find any immediately noticeable negative effects from running the 10R7155 cam with stock "57" injectors. This is an improper camshaft to injector combination, as I briefly explained in this video.
In the long run, this combination will cause accelerated internal injector wear, accelerated cam lobe and rocker arm/roller wear, and in some cases can eventually cause catastrophic gear train failure as it shakes the weights out of the cam gear due to increased vibration coming through the cam.
The 10R7155 camshaft properly matches to a "59" injector, which is a much higher flowing injector than a "57". There is very little to be gained by running this cam with "57s", and it will only cause problems in the long run.
Do not mistake this video as me telling anybody that this cam swap alone is an upgrade or something that you should do to increase performance. That is not and never was the intent of this video.
It's crazy seeing a complete engine in application. I've installed thousands of peanut covers, head cams, fuel injectors, rocker arms, and tri sensors in thousands of engines but I'm on a pretty early stage of assembly so I don't get to see the finished product unless I see one of our vehicles in the field
6 in a row ready to tow. With a cat under the hood, life is good. Keep makin great vids man. And that cat dealer guy bobo can shove it
Pretty cool putting the camera in the bed, no wind noise as well! I don't know the first thing about diesels but man, it does sound nice.
single turbo beast
I run a '99 Freightliner with a Cat engine. Had it since '03 and I will never replace it. 1.66 million miles (it had a half million on it when I got it). 8 mpg @ 55 mph. Overhauled at 1,231,000 miles. 435 hp. C-12.
Yours sounded SO nice when you lit 'er up!
Dale Fry Why did you overhaul? i did bottom end bearings at 800k for preventative maintenance. at 1.2mil and still running strong! 50
psi of oil pressure running down the road. 03 FLD 113 CAT C-12
I had a c-12 kick a rod out the side of the block with 650k. Cavitation caused it to cut a hole through a sleeve and hydrolic lock. Keep good factory spec coolant in the truck.
This is another channel with such good competent entertainment, its why I dont have TV anymore. I dont even own a truck (But i drive them for buddies sometimes) Great documentary.
Spot on. Let's ensure TV companies don't take over YT so content creators like KT3406E can continue to produce excellent independent content.
I haven't watched TV for years, now ! Its all repeats of shit here in the UK anyhow...
Here we have a Skidoo clutching guru watching CAT truck engine builds! Just awesome
@@mhp0810 companies have fully taken over youtube and made everything algorithms and advertising. UA-cam channels like this are essentially nonexistent unless you are looking in videos like it. Its why I dislike youtube /google. They absolutely ruined everything back in 2012 when they took away freedom and individuality from this site. You used to get on youtube and the videos we're truly 100% random all the time, everything in the suggested areas on the side was videos of stuff completely irrelevant from eachother, youtube content didn't follow any sort of formulas back then it was random and unpredictable all the time, now you have to go out of your way to try and find good videos and it's always trying to find what you "want to watch more of" its a fucking bullshit ass lie nobody ever wanted any of it they just think everyone wants to see the same thing all the time without even asking us
I'm an old tractor mechanic. Never worked on any Cat gear however I love the video. I really enjoyed the tailgate camera angle and listening to those two stacks choofing out puffs of coal. Cheers from Oz (Australia)
Minute 14:00 I love that music. It made hair grow in my chest. Awesome noise. Thanks for sharing Your videos. Blessings from LA.
I have a friend who is an executive at CAT. He's a great guy, but I believe that hamstringing truckers, farmers, commercial fishermen, etc., with proprietary maintenance restrictions is what is driving many independents out of business. America was not built on those principles! It was built by guys like you, who are independents and scratch out a living by doing, learning and becoming experts at what they do. Do some independents buy black market (China) programs to help them with proprietary codes, passwords and such? Of course, but they have no choice if they want to remain profitable and independent in the first place. These codes, passwords, etc, should be part of the purchase price of the equipment and should be transferrable as well. An unforeseen consequence of this is guys keeping older equipment running for years/decades because they don't require the queertrons to fix a simple time critical maintenance issue.
It’s by design. Big business is pushing these things on purpose so they can take over small business.
Great engines should be a smaller. Version in a lot of. Cars / pickups. Govt regulated. BS. Now making hats & T ee. Shirts. lol. Damnnnn. Joke !
I worked on a few.of these, this one sounds strong for its milage. Plus pulling a full load up to speed that quick must mean that cam is doing its job. A+ work...
the camera in the bed is a bad ass pov
sounds and angles are cool
you can see ur heavy and you can see the power ur putting out by how well it is accelerating.
cool stuff man
I am here for big trucks. Wasn’t disappointed well done. As a mechanic I love seeing stuff I have no idea about. Learning makes the jobs fun. Well done.
Hi here from Joliet Illinois Alfonso ,I would like to say that after watching your video and the kind of work you do My Respect, Iam a Driver for 15 years and I really Appreciate how Honest you take your Job I pray that God will Keep you with the best Health and Wisdom and Knowledgeable you’re at this Point Keep the Good Work Because as driver You encouraging my life to keep my self On the Road as longest God gives me Strength God Bless you here from Joliet Illinois my home
Right now I am taking a little break here in Georgia Calhoun with my parents.
New Subscriber 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤗🤗
Love your videos, brilliant work.. and that engine sounds amazing
I just wanted to thank you for sharing your craft and knowledge with men that truly appreciate it, not like negative boso's.....
Very cool videos man, you do high quality work. I’d love to see some more of the actual work being done! 👍
I used to do testing on over the road truck engines for CAT. Once had a 1200 hp marine duty map rolled in a full feature 3406e by mistake. Pulled a fully loaded trailer up the hill like driving a corvette. One awesome engine.
I gotta get out of Cali. This whole carb thing made us decide to sell our 379s with an N14 and 3406E. I'm thinking either Texas or Arizona in a few years for now.
Hey Man, no need to apologize. The videos are awesome no matter the format and I've gotta say your a helluva a technician!
Thank you for this! Enjoyed every part, especially the ride! The sound reminds me of the IKARUS 280 bus from my childhood.
I just got a rebuild on my 3406 e cat. They wouldnt turn it up or build it to a 550 because they said the 10 speed wouldnt handle the torque. Well, guess its time to snatch it out, looking for a 13.
When you fired that puppy up, i had you in my surround sound system in my 1996 W900L 3406e 5ek (i know you did ask me all that but dammit I'm giddy) which is about 10 speakers including two 12" woofers and two 1000 watt amps ok? I almost went "premature" when she fired up and then you started bust'n gears (young fella can drive too) and maaaaan she sounds so sweet! She was even rolling some coals..awwww yeaaaah😁. Damn what BoBo's saying, you keep doing what you do! On your follow up video on this motor, can you briefly talk about the gears under the peanut cover and how you set them while you're talking about (running the rack) the valve adjustment and jakes'n stuff please? Keep on keeping on my brudda and stay safe 🤘
14:15 subtitles say "[Music]"... indeed this IS music!
That's one sweet truck and motor. Thanks for posting
man that 379 sure did sound good after you got the cam swapped out and i bet it pulls like a big dog defiantly a member of the left lane gang lol
I am a new subscriber just found your channel super informative awesome job I had a marine cam installed in my C16 600 cat what a difference it made I would come out of California loaded with produce an that 600 with a marine cam didn't know what a mountain was I miss that ol peterbilt just I am fan
Dude, genious. Im mesmerized by your knowledge. Im that way with cars, and ive only had a short expierience with big trucks, the way you break stuff down gets me hooked. And i think i know where you were out haulin by. Not too far from me. And youre a young dude too, and i think took, and take to the big trucks naturally. Awesome work.
Thank you for not adding music to this, especially the test drive. 😁
Damn dude, you're something else. Nice job!
Man you are truly a gifted mechanic!
Nice combination. Cat is the best engine ever built.
She sung a mean tune on the jake brake down 🔥🔥🔥
This is well tuned truck, doesn't even smoke.
Loved the last camera position. Cool looking truck too.
BFH...... I suspect those are also available here in the UK. As always thank you for another great vid.
You're efforts are BANG ON ....yes always strive for a better performance however you're doing some awesome work right now. All the best.
that pure truck highway jake brake road noise ASRM there at the end
Great video. Nice to see people that know what they are doing
You do a great job and explaiin everythimg logically. Keep it up.
Another Cat Man
It looks really strong against that dump trailer of rock!
Great video...appreciate you. One of the best CAT specific channels. Let us know how it performs.
I was kinda sweating doing cam swap and dod delete on my Chevy 5.3 . After watching this NO FEAR this is way more work lol.
I thought I was watching Carl from sling blade, giving a tutorial. Get your B.F.H....some call it a big freaking hammer, I call it a B.F.H.. Awesome video.
0:27 now that is an entrance!
Seriously jumps out the truck like Hawk awsome video
Looks like it was doing real good hauling that rock. Pulled real good out the hole.
Well, all I know is I like your video and that is a really nice truck you got there. I can tell that you're very smart too
Clean Engine!
You can now only run on high octane gasoline and need to advance ignition timing - I am 20 year Cat mechanic!
Enjoy watching your material! Keep it up!!
Great video! I'm getting my first diesel vehicle soon. Looking forward to doing some maintenance on it in the future.
Cool camera view driving down the road
Greta loves this channel!
BFH, one of a mechanics favorite tools. I have several. Good for stress management also.
Laughter is the best medicine.
love your videos..edited just right..keep doing what you do best.
the new missouri plates look so good on it!!
Powerful dempor
Test drive sounds fresh!
Well done. Well spoken, you know your stuff. Look forward to more content.
Thankyou ❤
Your video logs are so insightful 👏 👌
Blessings from Shitsville Hartlepool Teeside Northeast England ♒️ 🏴 🇬🇧 🙏 🙌 ♥️ 😊
Had some experience with the marine cam and stock injectors. Low hp cam and right injectors with correct tune makes better hp
Great video and absolutely love the sound of that truck
Dude, you're a badass! Bravo!
Nice job Sir , the engine sounds awesome oh and yes TOP MECHANIC
I sold my b model cat and have regretted it ever since.
Why?
the C15 gensets i service are 779Hp@1800 C18’s are 998 2 turbos tho one on the back 3cyl and one on the front 3
That cam makes a big difference in the jake brakes
Awesome video 👍👍 so did it make a noticeable difference in power or mileage? Doesn’t seem to have any flutter issues, nice 👍 💪
No big difference in power, does run slightly different. You always hear about the flutter, but I haven't found it yet. First hand experience is always better than what you hear or read online. Thanks for watching.
KT3406E That’s why I appreciate your videos like this, to see your first hand experience, much appreciated.
Good stuff right there. Thanks for sharing. Keep up the good work. North Carolina.
I always liked the old style round headlihts i think they look better
I'd love to just chill in the back for a trip video =D
Y tarp the load gonna keep the tarp new as it is lol great vid I got a 3406 15 speed with 410 gears or 411 no sure but it does 60 at 2000 rpm in the 15th gear it’s also a dump truck love Pete’s and kw just nothing like them out there
Keep on trucking !
Awesome job man!!!🤙🏽
thanks for showing !
Sounds beautiful
Damn that sounds good!!!!!
Nice cam swap out 👍🏻😎🇬🇧
a used tennis sock cover for the stock hood down rubber blocks.
I love seeing other Missourians make videos. What part of Mo are you located?
What is the benefits in running a marine cam? I have a 99 3406e 1LW I'd be interested in this
I would almost think being marine the lobes would be shorter ?? More low end torque??
At least you get your rocks off at the end😂😂😂😂.
I don't really read the comments too often. Some of these are GOLD. Especially this old fuck BOBO, all his CAPS and old wrinkly hands clutching onto the original and coveted CATERPILLAR PASSWORDS. These dudes need to embrace the age of change where OEM equipment can quite easily be infiltrated with basic hardware that you can find at the plaza computer store. Keep up the good work and videos brother... ignore the hate.
Yeah no joke, the keygens have been around for how many years now? Some of these guys amaze me.
Kool... Nice rig 👌 pull like a champ
LMAO, I remember the first time I heard about a BFH tool. I was loaded at a dock and tail heavy so the dock lock was snagged on my ICC bar and my airbags were not bringing the ass end up high enough to clear the bottom lock latch on the dock. I was struggling to figure out what to do and another driver told me to use my BFH dock tool that should be in the sidebox of my truck. I guess he could tell by the look on my face that I had no fuckin clue and he chuckled just before educating me.
Man old Pete sounds good
This quarantine has me watching your videos and I don’t even own a Diesel engine. 👍🏻
J.A. ………...me too !!!!!!!!!!!!
lol!
be glad, dirty, noisy as fuck and fuel is more expensive then regular gas.
Zues Toots that noise is torque in music form lol
@@zuestoots5176 not a true trucker
You are a breath of fresh air when it comes to quality of workmanship and attention to detail. Guys like you are rare as hens teeth theses days. No one gives a shit about the work they do or take pride in doing a good and proper job anymore. I salute you sir and would purchase and engine from you in a heartbeat!! RESPECT!!!!
I take pride in my work along with one or two others at work. Now if we could motivate the dead beats that would be nice. I do things I'm not asked to do and find work when I have finished the work that my boss assigned me to.
I love the sound of a CAT engine. Makes me miss my old driving days.
Me too.
Me too retirement sucks.
Same here. CAT’s were by far my favorite to run!
Driving one . They are Noisy Compair to other Engine's .lot more Noisy
Nothing beats the Scania V8 with straight pipes, but the CAT sounds good i must say.
man i'm impressed with you and your work you seem to know your stuff, i like your videos keep up the good work. If i ever rebuild my 07 c15 i would rather have you do it then salt lake cat 20,000 for my 01 and I wasn,t impress with the work they did.
Meanwhile I'm fighting with the engine in my chainsaw...
USE a Nippondenso spark plug and a quality oil thats isnt green.
That's why they sell new ones 😂👍
woabegone?
Lolled for this.
I'm from Australia 🌏 and I tell you all I learn a lot from this man I'm grateful he puts videos out there for us
That engine sounds wonderful. I love hearing a diesel all tuned and running full power. It is a thing of beauty.
Good job mate, that engine bay and ancillaries are a credit to you. I always reckoned a real good bloke keeps his own gear well and you exemplified my theory. Informative video as ever, big fan of yours out here in Australia 🇦🇺👌👍🍻
Thats glorious sound of CAT C-15. Nice
It’s definitely hitting
I miss my old girl
I want that as my ring tone!
very nice
@kt3406e you're a badass, I gave this video a thumbs up before it even started playing. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us.
Good job...I love the sound of a Cat engine! 🥰 Well, did you notice the difference in how it ran, pulling power, etc? It did sound pretty good!
@fomoco 🇺🇸 My brother brought home a cabover Marmon that had a Cat. I fell in love with Cats at that point. It ran harder, faster, smoother & really gave him much better service than the previous truck with a Cummins. We’ve had Detroits, Cummins, Cat & IH engines and have had many good engines out of the bunch. 🥰🤩✌️
When you hear THE turbo THROUGH THE EXHAUST IN THE BED AT FREEWAY SPEED...THAT BEAST IS BREATHING LIKE THE HULK!
It came out good I had to bore n stroke it also
Hey Bro, I really love your shed, it's the ultimate man cave, cheers from Australia:-))
we call them shops here. sheds are usually small 6x6ish garden sheds for hand tools and some junk
You think of a shed, for the mower and garden rakes Haha, but that's some workshop you have 👍👍👍. Think it looks great. But that engine SOUNDS LIKE MUSIC. Keep them coming. Geoff Lewis, Wales, UK 🏴🏴🏴
Love your Channel I'm a lifelong mechanic 64 years old worked on just about everything .>>really enjoy your videos couldn't exactly tell you why but I do ::::keep up the good work kid I've had to deal with these dudes supposed Factory experts who never spun wrench just remember that dude Bobo will be working at the parts counter till the day he dies trying to pass himself off as an expert he will end up retiring from Joe's Auto Parts with a f****** gold watch.>> gold plated
Thanks for taking the time to make the video. I’ll probably never work on a Cat, but I sure enjoy learning about it.
I am positive a dedicated owner who would undertake a tiny little job like this is likely going to not send his truck to the dealer. So all the ASE certified Master Techs out there who comment negatively about this guys work. GFY. My fiance gets called to Mercedes Benz when there master techs cant figure out why the security system is engaged. My fiance is a realtor who restores old tanks with Radial Aircraft engine.
I really enjoy these videos. So informative...and funny.
