The guy reviewing the delete would approve, so can’t blame the delete on the oil temps. And as far as far what truck to run I definitely will not be stepping back in time, I’ve got 5 trucks 2 of which are 600hp and handle the minimum of 140k lbs we run. One at 525 has its hands full with the b trains. I have no problem spending money, I have an issue spending money where I don’t see value. I’ll go buy a new 589 before I give Cummins 70k for a reman motor.

Yes I will be putting a inframe kit in. Just putting a Canadian peso $ value on doing the whole thing.

Not sure what the exchange rate is, but a Elite kit, + oil cooler, bypass kit, and turbo would probably land you around $45k USD all said and done. The little odds and ends add up.

...

what kind of weed are you smoking over there?.. bad delete programing WILL ABSOLUTELY CAUSE HIGHER THAN NORMAL OIL TEMPS... BY A ,LOT!!... DUE TO EXCESSIVE FRICTION. One of the biggest issues that bad deletes have is that the engine gets permanently stuck in the wrong operating mode. Engine is making as much internal friction as it can perpetually, it still trying to heat up the DPF .. which is now missing. It causes a much shorter engine life, higher than normal oil temps, a VGT turbo that spools up at idle and a whole lot more issues. - All typically leading to a dropped liner, turbo failures, and all kinds of other expensive headaches.

- I have seen first hand, bad delete programing that was so bad, that it caused bobtail trucks oil to overheat @ 245+ temps, not even loaded with freight yet ... . all while 6 mechanics shops and the the driver all SWEARING there was nothing wrong with programming,.. etc... only to put properly corrected programming back in, and oil temps drop by more than 40+degrees, back down to normal, once the engine was set to operate in the correct operating modes again.

- This guy is about one inch from getting banned form here. Sounds more like he wants everyone to agree with him and justify their bad, after-garbage decisions and short sightedness, rather than to actually learn something.

There is no sugar coating around here. If you here to learn, that is one thing ... but if all you want is for people to agree with some half-arsse trash ides applied to a $40,000 commercial engine, making it completely WORTHLESS with parts that will not last 2-3 years without having to do it all over again... then go to some other forum, back to social medai where that crap belongs.
