Power
- The new engine delivers 300 horsepower at 3100 rpm and 520
lb.-ft. of torque at 1800 rpm.
- Center-mounted turbocharger pulls fresh air in through the air
cleaner and into its compressor.
- After being compressed, the air is then channeled through
a duct to the charge air cooler (which is packaged like an additional
radiator in front of the water radiator).
- The cooled air then travels through the intake manifold
and into the engine.
- This cooler air is denser, so it provides more power.
- Direct injection with pilot injection delivers precise amounts
of fuel to each cylinder to help reduce emissions and noise levels. For more
information on this feature, click here.
- Four-valve-per-cylinder configuration optimizes airflow in and
out of the engine, improves breathing, and processes more air, generating more
power than competing designs.
- The cylinder head design allows free breathing, outstanding
combustion and high horsepower. The aluminum head design helps improve heat
dissipation for increased power.
- The deep-skirted induction-hardened block helps contribute to
Duramax torque capabilities.
