so i have this nagging idea about putting a hall sensor and custom wheel at the crank and have it trigger a solenoid or something to open an exhaust valve, my question is how !EXACTLY! do i stop injection to the one cylinder

---AutoMerged DoublePost---

oh yeah its a 04.5 5.9

 

Maybe with a zeus ecm?? Really not sure how to stop an injection event otherwise......just thinking out loud

 

yeah that would totally work but i dont want to go to that much trouble, like a nc relay or somethin......

 

If it were feasible their would be one made by now.

 

So what are you doing this for? (You just want to kill one cylinder?)

(You already have a tone wheel on the crank. You could either use the OEM CPS or just add another one next to it. . . . Also, you know you are dealing with 2 valves per cylinder? If you could somehow 'remove' the bridge from the rocker, you could use a different design to open both valves.)

I looked quite a bit for an engine brake for these 5.9L Cummins and came to the conclusion that there isn't one. . . .

 

at this point in time you can not get an engine brake for the dodges

 

There is new true engine brake for 5.9l cummins. You could call jakebrake. But i think the 8.3l cummins is the smallest you can go but it might be worth a shot.

I have the Jacobs on my '06!


(But it is an exhaust brake and they don't make an engine brake for the little 5.9L I tried to get one as I would really like to have one!)

 

yeah thats y im building it and when i get done they will most definitely be for sale )))
