Then start a new thread on turbos, or find an old thread and add to it.
Have you contacted Borg Warner?
Have you driven an LDT or LDS with any other turbo(to compare)?
A 478 ci diesel will only rev up to 2600rpm, just so fast.
What is your goal?
C or D or the old LDS turbos will all make more boost than the engine can handle.
This thread is supposed to be about the differences in an LDT and an LDS motor.
The turbo has nothing to do with the differences in the motors.
If you read the troubleshooting the LDS manual or the IP manual, you would know there is a difference in the IP/governor advance spring rate, and fuel rate etc
The engine version (1-C) has nothing to do with the turbo model. It's a reference to an engine model that was revised.
As for the C or D designation of the turbo model, I am not sure where that "name" came from. Does anyone have any info on that? Direct from Schwitzer , maybe...
Might be a good time to step back, and read more.
With same turbo on either ldt or lds, an lds make more power.
A well setup(tuned) ldt wil make enough power to make you feel like you have an lds.
Try reading the info in the troublshooting the LDS TM.
Guys remember, this thread is about the differences of an LDT vs LDS engine, not about modifying a multi-fuel engine(for tractor pulling perfomance). We don't need custom rods to make 40 more HP.
Well, in this case/thread, perhaps the fact the the OP(relative newb) starts a thread, states he is gonna get to the bottom of this issue, then proceeds to post "facts" that are not correct or relevant. Then drops off and never comes back to follow up.
And then in this thread, another newb...
If you hadn't noticed, I don't care to debate the differences. I only brought this back up because the OP dropped it. He was gonna answer the question of what is different(not me).
nope was actually an "long" answer, I had to post 3 or more letters!
