True comparing the early LLY engines (2004-early 2006) but the 06.5 LLY was MUCH closer to the LBZ than the old LB7.crbr said:LLY is reliable but more of a spin-off from the LB7.

I have been told they are one of the best truck engines for cold starts(-10 to -35 Celsius) not being plugged in.
Thread pruned. Too many involved to PM all of you. Take the high road fellas.
Back to the discussion.
No comparison here. After a couple 6L tear downs and a 6.4L powerstroke tear down coming and our duramax being completely reliable with no repairs, I'd buy duramax all the way. Better torque down low, too.
My first duramax was my best truck. It went almost 300,000 miles. Plowed snow, pulled trailers, etc. Never needed anything rebuilt other than small stuff. Yes, injectors were replaced under warranty, but no problems afterwards. The second duramax is acyually better, but will have to go a lot more miles without problems to equal my first one.
Never seen such a smooth, quiet, poweful engine.
