[Vwdiesel] MB diesel specs??

[Patrick Dolan]

Just out of curiosity:  how did you get a Chrysler engine in your Ford Super Duty????   Or did you mean 460??

I you want to tow with a 3.0 DB inline, you are going to be very dissappointed in the power and torque.  The economy will be fantastic, but the juice will be lacking.  If I wanted an occasional towing yank-tank with decent economy, I would look for a 12 valve Cummins - which is a well known install in the Stupid Duty.
