Well partner they're both internal combustion motors. I think your auto correct like mine rewrite posts sometimes (changes enough words to change meaning).

But diesel's are amazing, I've worked as a engineer / motorman offshore on drilling rigs and the stories I could tell you. I think some of the old detroit 71 series are possessed. 471s are screaming little demons you just can't kill, their big brother the 1271s were the backbone of many a old draw work compounds, enough power to pull the Derick down if you're not careful.

And those big old cats seemed to like it slow and easy an ran forever, ideal for SCR generation applications.

But even after my offshore career ended, I jumped in a big truck and ran them roads until the wheels fell off.

And I'm here to say those baby truck diesel motors are little monster's too, just start to get broke in at 100k miles. Not uncommon to see a well cared for one with a few million miles, rather common to see them with at least a couple of million miles.

Marine application with set RPMs can really be dialed in with forced induction for max efficiency, weather your talking turbos or blowers the air/fuel ratio can get ridiculous.

Yea, I'm a fan but I've had some special hotrods in the gasoline version too.
