Yes, exactly it "defuels" as opposed to "dropping rpms." Which is why the vast majority of head gasket issues are on programmed diesels, which takes of that restriction. I have seen my 6.0 at 1,500 degrees several times for a couple seconds.
My point is really on diesels, especially newer ones with egr and dpf, fuel is the cause of the heat, not rpms.

But you said a V10 could run at WOT all day...You didn't say it could only do it if the engine was new, with fresh oil, a strong wind at its back, and the sun at 33-degrees on the 4th day of September...Then you went out there and blew one up in 30 seconds.
Then you try to explain it away that "The RPM's weren't the problem"....Of course not...And if you'd thrown a rod, you would be saying "But the gaping hole in the side of the block's not the problem"...it was the stuck t-stat or some other lunacy. The RPM's WERE the problem...The oil pump apparently couldn't keep up with THE HIGH RPMS!

Do you not unstand the way Ford tested them?

The RPMs DID NOT KILL IT.

If Ford didn't test them, would you buy one?
The limiter will let it run 5,000. These engines will run 5,000 with no problem at all. Then why did yours blow up in less than 30 seconds?
And when you defuel, you lose power. Then the V10 can outpull you by that much more.

That is the engine I blew.
Now, your telling me that it was the design of the engine and I am just making excuses?

That was 2,000 miles ago, it must have re-pluged with sludge.
I will post pics when I get it apart.
I'll do it for a minute or two, but it will not be 5K.
The older V10 has peak HP at a lower RPM. I will run it at 4600 or so.
If you think I'm backpedling and backing out, I'm not.
I will run the newer one at 5K as soon as Its fixed.
If the V10 was as weak as you claim, I would drive a powerstroke.

I put a new pick up screen in.

I am not going to run 5,000 RPM for 20 minutes just becuase I can.

Do you really think that I can't pull a grade at WOT without killing the truck?

No, I am not backing off that claim. They will run that RPM for days on end.

Looks pretty weak blowing up in 30 seconds...just sayin'...I doubt it was sludge...I bet it was that the oil pump couldn't keep up and you ruined the mains. But, go ahead and fix it and do it again...There's a $20.00 prize there for $2500.00 in repairs every time you want to try it
Do you understand the way Ford tested them?
Well, I made a vidoe. Its uploading now. Hit 5500 RPMs at one point.

I can only speak for the 7.3....no 7.3s have a stock pyro/egt sensor, the only thing that will make a 7.3 defuel is an over boost situation which is possible with a stock truck.

And running 1,200 degrees for 20 minutes is no problem, I have done it many times.
