2020 Chevy Duramax 3.0 Diesel
The Chevy 3.0 Duramax has been delayed due to the EPA which is a shame, but not surprising. Also not a fan of the timing chain installed on the rear of the engine. Link

Here's some more intel on the 3.0 Duramax.
36,000 psi HPFP
Rubber belt drives oil pump. Again at the rear of the engine.
DEF fill port next to diesel fill port.
Diesel fill port looks exactly like a Ram diesel fill port

Only 150k mile life expectancy/design? Seems low. Anyone know what other 1500 series gas or diesels are designed/rated for as far as longevity?
Probably the same 150k. The GM 6.0 probably longer judging by how many 200k-400k trucks are on the road. GMs half ton gassers aren’t exactly the king of reliability and longevity anymore.
