I love my mechanical diesel!!! 15 years ago I stuffed a 270 horse version DTA466 into my 1984 E-350, charge air aftercooled with an RTO6610 Fuller 10 speed. Over the years broke 3 sets of rings and pinions in the one weak link Dana 61 axle (3.08 gears) Currently swapping in a Spicer S-135 out of a C5500 Chev. 2.93 gears and a locker. Custom built air bag suspension in the rear. SUCH A VERSATILE ENGINE!!! Great choice guys for a severe modification!! Extremely dependable, this one lights in 10 degree weather, no ether and I don't miss the glow plug system that the original 6.9 liter had!
