How many horsepower does a GM LLY have?

It was a stepping stone for GM as they begun to encounter stricter emissions requirements thanks to the federal government and California. Despite the added emissions, the LLY was very powerful and capable for the time producing 310 horsepower and 605 lb/ft of torque. It was mated to a 5-speed Allison Transmission in years 2004 and 2005.

Are there any problems with the LLY engine?

However, there are a number of new issues that have arisen due to the changes, and a number of shared problems with the LB7. Additionally, 2006 LLY models are very comparable to the LBZ engine, creating a number of overlapping common problems there as well.

What kind of catalytic converter does a LLY engine use?

The California LB7 and all LLY engines are equipped with catalytic converters, designed to trap and vaporize PM (soot) expelled by the engine. The LLY got a new catalytic converter design for 2004 that is the same size as those used on the LB7, but the quantities of precious metals and resulting effectiveness have increased.

When did the LLY Duramax go to 6 speed?

It was mated to a 5-speed Allison Transmission in years 2004 and 2005. In 2006, the Allison Transmission was upgraded to a 6 speed. Although our LLY Duramax specifications chart above does mention the turbocharger found on these trucks, it doesn’t mention the fact that these are one of the largest turbochargers found on any Duramax today.

Are there any problems with the LLY Duramax?

In terms of LLY injector problems, GM had sorted out the internal failures with the 2004 ½ redesign, but the LLY Duramax would occasionally exhibit a trouble code for the injectors, but in most cases it turned out to be an issue with the injector harness rubbing through and causing a short or open in the wiring.

Is the LLY Duramax 6600 a catalytic converter?

The LLY got a new catalytic converter design for 2004 that is the same size as those used on the LB7, but the quantities of precious metals and resulting effectiveness have increased. I was encouraged to learn last year that GM had been running 2007 emissions qualified prototype Duramax 6600 diesels for quite some time.
