Davis Diesel Development

[BJoe]

Anybody ever try one of their diesel conversions on a car or truck?

[BJoe]

Never mind, they don't run pump diesel in these motors

[Catfisher]

There is a thread on the traxxas forumes of someone who bought one.

The deisel is still 30$ a gallon

[MBX5TMAD]

So it defeats the whole purpose to convert to deisel, if its not the pump deisel, which is about 5bucks a gallon, you might as well just stick with Nitro.

[BJoe]

Yup,that was my thought on it too!

[Tex]

has anyone tried the conrod they make for the 3.3 motor? does it effect performance being so much more bulky?

[BJoe]

Don't know. Supposedly it's stronger, but if it screws with the air/fuel mixtures blend and or adds additional rotating mass to the engine, would it be effective?

[J-Dub]

Might make it stronger but you're losing the rev and some efficiency since you're losing that knife-edge cut on the rod.
