What have you guys noticed? More power/ smoke? Higher EGT's? What exactly does cutting the DV's entail?I have just completed my engine swap in my 81 300SD. It now houses a 1984 model year 617.952. The alda has never been touched (evidence of this being the metal band around plastic cap over adj nut). I want to remove it soon because it isn't near as peppy as my former benz engine (stock with ALDA devirginized 1981 617.951). I need to check my boost on this .952 and report back. Basically, I am looking for good performance while trying not to sacrifice too much mileage-I know people in Hell want icewater .

The DV isn't a restriction to flow on the M and MW pump. Cutting the collar results in a very unstable idle, lots of smoke and extremely quick increasing EGTs. It had good power but the EGTs made the power unusable.

Cutting the collar? I thought to 'cut the dv's' one would remove them and have them Blanchard ground...

(11-30-2009, 01:33 AM)ForcedInduction No, just the collar profile.
So it is just removing some material from the top of the dv to the collar? Or cutting the diameter of the collar? My picture will explain my question...
How are these DV's removed from the IP? Thread link / picture?

Yes, Just cutting the collar. The height difference is an optical illusion of the camera.

Yes. Remove the lines, remove the 15mm nuts and they will be directly under. They will need a new copper crush washer as well.

Yes, I did them myself using a crude air drill/lathe and a dremel.

11-30-2009, 06:11 PM #11What about cutting a "channel" in the collar? Would that in theory allow more fuel, but not as much as totally cutting them? Maybe better idle results?

11-30-2009, 09:16 PM #13The DVs from the P7100 shown above show that on the brass looking one, the collar is still there but just "thinner". This would allow more fuel and still have a collar to reduced the risk of double injection.

I'm getting some 7.5's from him and it would probably be a good time to get some other things right now to save on shipping. I could send them to you once I got them here in the States.
I'd be looking into a set of Tomnik's "Holly" 6.5mm elements and a VNT for the most bang for the buck.

What were/are you running for a turbo?
Folks around here (short of the Finns) aren't known for running 'big' turbos...
On a OM617/OM606, anything smaller than a Holset HX35 is little, IMHO.

OK. It takes a lot of flow/boost to burn clean. Was there a haze of gray or a cloud of black?

That's not exactly fogging for skeeters level of overfueling - I bet with a little more boost/flow she'd clean right up. EGT's pre-turbo were about 1300° after a hard run...?

Yeah - HX40's are lag pigs. Even on 5.9L Cummins engines. There are plenty of other options out there that will flow more and spool faster. Industrial Injection makes some very nice hybrid turbos - spendy, though.
I was VERY impressed with the ball bearing Garrett (GT37R ?) one friend of mine had on his Cummins ISB. The thing spooled nearly instantly and the EGT's stayed cool with a LOT of fuel even though he had a nasty crack in his intercooler. Again, a spendy bugger - but they seem to be very, very durable.
