Of course...an engine would never just wear out...It can always be traced back to a lack of maintenance, right? I'd like to see you pull your other engine and run it through the same tests...$20.00? Awwww...scratch that, I'll offer you $50.00 to do it. Maybe 200140ex will match my oh-so-generous offer
And offering $50, you know full well Bill won't take it just to pull the engine from the truck he makes money with so it can be bolted to a dyno and beaten to death.
Let's try a different tact: Try offering enough so that he WILL do it. Bill, you down for about $10K ? CFICO? Gonna offer enough money to make it worth his while? I doubt it.

WOT is not necessarily 5K rpm.

My '01 Supercab short-bed 4x4 w/V10 weighed in around 6900lbs with me and a half-tank of gas, otherwise totally empty at the scrap-yard. Of course, that scale is used for delta weights (change in weight) and is probably not all that accurate.

Quite playing with the numbers. Bill and other gasseers maybe even you have said wot and 5k all day. I don't know what the point is. You peak @4750. If your rounding up that's fine by me. I don't know if you or Bill seen sn engine built in a fsctory and test they do. I did in 07 I got to watch em build 6.0s. I wached the dynos. Even got to play alittle. There's NO dang way I'd put my engine there that. I posted about it back in 07. When international said the head bolts couldn't hold up to the extreme tunes how do you reckon they knew? Cause they blow em up
Sounds fair to me that if Bill says he's can and he does run his WOT all day, well let's see it. Only video of his I could find he never hit redline he hit 5k but didn't keep it. At least I don't remember him keeping it. I mean if I'm will to prove myself wrong I don't see what's wrong in asking for someone else to do the same. I keep the class of company that isn't scared to prove them selves wrong. Let's be men and not little kids.

Why would I offer him 10k? He already tried to prove it on another one for $20.00. Do you go to a store, see something you like, and then tell them their price is too low, and you want to pay more?
WOT is not necessarily 5K rpm.
And I wasn't the one who asked him to run it at 5k. HE said he could, no problem. I am saying WOT. He doesn't have to pull the engine and all that...He can hook up a trailer (make it easier on the engine that way) lock it into 2nd gear and get on the interstate from sunup to sundown for all I care. I'm not being any different than ANYbody else in saying "Prove It". But, he can't, and more importantly, he won't because he knows he can't. The funny part about it, is if I were claiming I could run my diesel like that, ALL of you V10 owners would be trying to call me on it.

First, I'm not playing with numbers, I'm saying that to be clear, WOT is not necessarily 5K rpm.
Second, I totally agree, let's not be little kids.

Oh come on, I DOUBLE dare you. You mean to say, after how many posts saying otherwise, that your diesel was NOT meant to stand 100% full-load duty cycles for lengths of time exceeding 20 minutes?

You should have thrown the "Christmas Story" triple dog dare on him so he COULDN"T refuse--LMAO
Second, I totally agree, let's not be little kids. Are you bi-polar? You say one thing, and then write what you wrote below...

Show me where I said that. Oh, once again, you can't.... However, I can show you hundreds (at least dozens) of posts where Bill claims he can run his at WOT all day, with all of you other gassers chiming in and saying it's true. Talk is cheap. Prove it.

The following implies that you would NOT do it....

Which also implies that your diesel can NOT do it without problems, using your method of interpreting posts in this thread.
Personally, I think it's perfectly capable of it. The 7.3, and the 6.7 are too. The 6.0, well, it's record says otherwise, at least for '03 and '04.
I said I would go two and I did. Why do I need to go 20?
Its done it before, it could do it again.

Yes, it can. I don't know why you think that just becuase its used its unable to be run at full power without coming apart.
I'm not going to pull my engine and run it 8000 hours on a dyno.
Unless you want to buy me a new engine to replace it, the fuel while its on the dyno and the dyno to test it.
