Hi,
I’ve got a 6BTA 330HP (S/N; 45539890) that I need to replace with a long block. My question is what is the difference with 6BTA and the different horse powers? I always assumed that the addition of the aftercooler and Turbo is what increased the horse power to 330. So, Can I buy the cheapest long block, transfer the aftercooler, turbo, and all other parts and have an equivalent engine?The other school of thought is that a turbo/aftercooler probably adds increased cylinder pressure, which might warrant beefier cylinders. This would mean that the base engine is not universal. Any one know the real difference?
Thanks,
Eric
