    Doing a inframe on my 2ws 3406e are there any piston/liner pack upgrade like ceramic or teflon coated looking to put a reliable 750hp motor together thanks for the help! I seen running a 130-9710 cam with 58 injectors and a turbo but can I run the cam with my stock injectors?

    Thanks not sure on this the injectors to be honest I'll do more reasearch. I just don't see a point in rebuilding it to stock

    Yea they are 10r 8501 so 57s if I read it right would a fass fuel set up help with the rough low end?

    Ipd makes a one pc steel piston that I would recommend. Can take alot more heat and not swell up and score like the alum skirt ones will. Or get a Acert crank with the 16:1 piston packs for some extra bottom end grunt.
     
    Oxbow Thanks this.

    I have the exact same setup that you mentioned in my 1LW. I inframed it with an IPD kit and new cat head, I used new not reman 58's, and a new 130-9710 cam. I would do it all at once and be done with it. I sent Kurt (Mr. Haney) my ECM to flash while I was rebuilding the engine. Ive got 120k on it now and the truck works everyday, I think it is a perfect compromise between reliability, power and fuel mileage.
     
    SAR, bigguns and Oxbow Thank this.

    You guys don't like a little lope in your idle? I've always like the sound of a gasser with a big cam and a rough idle. Not the same on a diesel?

    To me a lope in a diesel reminds me of a train.
