So this is my first post here, and my first attempt at making a diesel imitator.
I of course chose my absolute favourite engine of all time: The Cummins 5.9L Second-Gen 12V
Obviously I cannot fully re-create it due to the lack of diesel setup.(yet)
But I did use the real bore x stroke specs, block materials, turbo cooling, and a few others. I tried to keep to the specs of the real thing as close as I could, but of course since this is a gas engine I had to make some modifications, and I did not set the year to the actual year the second-gen came out.
300 ft/lb TQ off idle, 400 before the turbo spools up.
What do you guys think?
