Ok so I might like to argue a little. Anyway now that we all know Im not a deere fan... In my experience the most common weakness is head gaskets. But I think the early ones were not as good. Also planing the heads helps.

Also 200k miles is probably less than 5000 hours on the trucks your talking about they should just be needing a lower end job another 200k and a complete. comparable yes. theres your fries Im closing the kichen for tonight though.

The deere version on the other hand is a totally different cat Not made by IH. poorly designed heads wont handle the HP without getting hot. :)

Well, Feedyard and field hours in the dust are alot harder on any engine than highway and city hours like your comparing. But I wont argue. If I had my choice for the same $ it would be the 466 hands down. One Tip: If you want the 465 to last never push it over 2200 rpm and never lug it...

DT 466 is very simmilar in size and hp (466ci). But with the inline pump and IC and all the easily added turbos and aftermarket pistons they have alot more room for raw HP with alot less work. But on the other hand you cant buy one thats pretty fresh for a few hundred bucks either.

Longevity of the 465 Before we bash the longevity of the 465 too much; I have a LDS4651A in a beefed up deuce. I have no idea how many hours were on it when we bought it back in 1972. It was probably a fresh rebuild then. Since then It has fed cattle in a feedyard most every day since then...

The stock 1d is about 130 hp by my book. You think that with you setup I could get around 225 hp with little cooling problems or other disadvantages?
