This is going to be kind of a wierd topic, so please bear with me. I would like to get some opinions from people on how the 4bt runs in comparison to what ever they swapped it for... I.E. for me I am trading my 302 in my bronco (which never ran) for the 4bt which ran in a bread van completely stock form and IN A BREAD VAN. I have had a hand full of diesels and currently drive a Duramax daily that has a mild EFI Live tune on it. But my question at hand is how does the 4bt compare to the 350's, 351's, 302's, your big blocks, your 4 cylinders and of course the 6 cylinders. I would like your opinions on stock turned up and drivng comparisons I.E. crawling, mudding, daily driving around town and highway.
The Reasoning for the comparison...... I catch alot of flack from people who in my opinion dont understand what diesels are capable of performing like. This is when I tell them about my swap. I have good knowledge of the basic driving differences of gas vs. diesel, but would like to just here some opinions from the folks who have done this swap with this particular motor, and have some drive time to go along with it.
