Origin of power stroke engine
Heard a comment at work, today, that the powerstroke diesel, is a gas engine reworked as a diesel. Have not heard or read this before so I thought to ask here .

I looked at a Frod back in 91-92 when I bought my navistar, the Frod came with a B5.9! Along with LONGEST wheel base for bedlength I wanted, LONGEST turning radius, even the same WB was LONGER than most/ALL other makes I looked at. Hood was horrible to look out over, 30' from front bumper to where the driver could see the road, vs 8 for Freightliner, and 10 or so for the navistar I bought. Least amount of window sq inches, felt like a dungeon........What is the saying, only bought it for the engine, body was an afterthought! Thats how it would have been with the frod.
But that was 20 something years ago too. New Frods are better, but not much better in the MDT relm of things.
