5 ton hp rating?

[Bidslinger]

Today as I was bleeding the fuel system I noticed a tag on the oil filter canister that said this engine was rated at 185 bhp deuce and a half pistons and that the fdc had been bypassed. Has this engine been derated because of the fdc bypass? I was told it was 210 hp when I purchased it. Can this engine be safely turned up to 210 to pull the 52" tires.

No multifuel is rated 210 hp.
The LDS465-1 about 180 and the LDS465-2 about 200 hp.

Is the m757 a 200 hp LDS465-2

Yes sir. As far as I know, the engine was specifically designed for that series of vehicles (m656/xm757).
