[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 641408, member: 2862"] Personally, I'd go with the DuraMax. Its one hell of an engine, second only to the Cummins for reliability. Its heavier built than the 6.4, uses a proven injection system (don't get me wrong, the Siemens unit that Navistar is using is elegant, but unproven), and has most of the bugs worked out. Ford solved their leaking injector issues by adding a detuning program when it detected overheating in the afterburner. So not cool. Another thing to keep in mind: Navistar and Ford are parting ways, so look for 6.4 parts to be hard to come by in a few years. Fords the worst of the Big 3 for dropping factory support for vehicles just as soon as they legally can. Pure supposition on my part: In 7 years, Navistar parts will only be available through Navistar outlets. Rod [/QUOTE]
