I've got some more technical stuff....
(some of this could be a repeat)
32 valve pushrod V8
Bore and Stroke 3.74 x 4.13 per cylinder displacement of 45 ci (.745 L)
Compression Ratio 18:1
Cast iron block with bedplate design for extra stiffness.
Heads are cast iron.
Crankshaft is forged steel.
Hydraulic lash overhead valves.
Gen 2 fuel injection... electrohydraulic common rail with pressures as high as 24,000 psi.
Siemens injectors with pilot injection.
Unaided starting at 15 degF, -40 with block heater.
Glow plugs.
Garret Variable Geometry Turbocharger (VGT) and cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR).
The terminology for the turbo technology is Electronic Variable Response Turbocharging (EVRT)
The turbo has a set of variable vanes that are adjusted electronically to optimize boost over a wide range of speeds and loads.
The cooled EGR system has a fast acting spool valve to instantaneously modulate the flow of cooled exhaust gases back into the combustion chamber. This lowers the temperature at which combustion initiates and thus reduces the formation of oxides of nitrogen during the combustion process.
Oil filter is a cartridge type from Racor mounted in the "V" of the block just forward of the turbocharger. It keeps the oil self contained like a printer cartridge for drip free maintenance. Similar filter will be on the PowerTorq transmission.
Five speed automatic designed to handle all the torque the engine offers.
First gear 3.09
Second gear 2.2
Clutch elements actuated by solenoids and computer.
PTO can operate in all gears.
Still saying 350@3300 and 600@2000 but torque substantially less at low rpms.
Sounds like a nice high tech powerhouse.
