Instagram: kt3406e800 HP Marine Camshaft Swap - 14.6L Caterpillar 6NZ C-15 Diesel Engine - Peterbilt 379 EXHDKT3406E2019-08-16 | Swapping out the stock 6NZ camshaft for the 10R7155 cam, better known as the 800 horsepower marine cam.
This was just an experiment to see for myself if I would find any immediately noticeable negative effects from running the 10R7155 cam with stock "57" injectors. This is an improper camshaft to injector combination, as I briefly explained in this video.
In the long run, this combination will cause accelerated internal injector wear, accelerated cam lobe and rocker arm/roller wear, and in some cases can eventually cause catastrophic gear train failure as it shakes the weights out of the cam gear due to increased vibration coming through the cam.
The 10R7155 camshaft properly matches to a "59" injector, which is a much higher flowing injector than a "57". There is very little to be gained by running this cam with "57s", and it will only cause problems in the long run.
Do not mistake this video as me telling anybody that this cam swap alone is an upgrade or something that you should do to increase performance. That is not and never was the intent of this video.Tear Down of a 17,000 Pound V16 Caterpillar 3516 - 1800 Horsepower 69 Liter Diesel EngineKT3406E2019-05-25 | Tearing apart a Cat 3516 diesel engine from start to finish.Bringing a Caterpillar 3406E 14.6 Liter Diesel Engine Back to LifeKT3406E2019-04-10 | Getting a Cat 3406E core engine running again.760 Horsepower Caterpillar 3508 Diesel Engine Test RunKT3406E2018-08-01 | Test running a Cat 68Z serial prefix 3508 diesel engine rated at 760 horsepower.Caterpillar 3508 - 35 Liter V8 Diesel Engine with Air StarterKT3406E2018-05-04 | Showing the air start setup on a 3508 Cat, then starting it up and running it.
