So how exactly did these two heavyweights stack up back in 1994, and how long would it take for Dodge to retaliate? Read on (and stay tuned) to find out! Toe-to-Toe Comparison It topped the Cummins in both horsepower and torque production and would become available mid-year ’94 in F-250 and larger trucks. Shortly after Dodge revealed its redesigned Ram, complete with its big-rig style front-end, aerodynamic body lines and the more powerful 5.9L Cummins as an engine option, Ford dropped a bombshell of its own: the 7.3L Power Stroke. In quieter news, GM fitted its 6.5L turbo IDI engine with an electronically controlled Stanadyne DS4 injection pump for 1994. Christened the Power Stroke, its HEUI injection system relied on highly pressurized engine oil to actuate the fuel injectors and the elaborate arrangement called for integrated oil rails in the cylinder heads, a gear-driven high-pressure oil pump, an injection pressure regulator (IPR), powertrain control module (PCM) and an injector drive module (IDM) in order to work. Downwind of the P-pump, the injectors were revised and the pistons reworked to further optimize combustion.īut while Dodge and Cummins stuck with mechanical injection, Ford and Navistar turned to an all-new (and radically different), electronically controlled 7.3L V8 with hydraulically operated fuel injectors. the “ P-pump”), the mechanical plunger pump that would go on to make the ’94-’98 Cummins legendary. The change entailed scrapping the Bosch VE rotary pump in favor of the venerable Bosch P7100 (a.k.a. To the end-user’s direct benefit, Chrysler and Cummins cleaned up the 5.9L’s particulate matter output by changing its injection system.
