i hate to say that i dont agree with you on the dt 466 being a better motor than the 5.9 or 6.7 from the intertrashonals that we have at work the dt466 are the biggest problem for us. we never do any work on our cummins or macks but we are always working on the intertrashonals. also something else i noticed about the dt466's is that they are the most gutless motors i have ever driven. just my $.02
