The LML Duramax is released for 2011 model General Motors & Chevrolet HD trucks. The latest version of the 6.6L Duramax, the LML uses advanced emissions equipment, including the use of diesel exhaust fluid injection, to reduce nitrogen oxide emission levels by 63 percent over LMM powered trucks. This allows the LML to exceed currently mandated federal emissions requirements & meet future future requirements as well. Not only is the LML the cleaniest Duramax in history; it is also the most powerul, being released with 397 horsepower & 765 lb-ft of torque.

LML Duramax Features:
• B20 biodiesel compatible (20% biodiesel, 80% petroleum diesel mixture).
• Fuel mileage increased by 11% over 2010 models.
• Factory engine brake with Allison 1000 transmission.
• GM states: "The engine has been developed to operate for at least 200,000 miles on a rough-duty cycle without the need for a major overhaul."
LML Duramax Emissions:
• Diesel particulate filter (DPF) nearly eliminates emissions of diesel soot. Active regeneration programming cleans the DPF periodically (estimated regen period every 700 miles, 300 miles less then previous systems, under normal operating conditions) by injecting diesel fuel into the exhaust stream via a "downstream injector", completely burning off soot captured in the DPF.
• Exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) with EGR cooler.
• Selective catalyst reduction (SCR) utilizing diesel exhaust fluid injection (DEF). DEF is a urea based fluid injected into the SCR to further reduce nitrogen oxide emissions. A DEF tank will need to be filled approx. every 5,000 miles (under normal operating conditions). Engine will enter into a limp-mode if DEF tank is empty.
• EGR cooler bypass to help eliminate soot deposits in the EGR cooler/system, which could potentially cause engine problems.
6.6L LML Upgrades & Changes
• Engine block upgraded for increased strength & engine noise reduction.
• Upgraded oil pump increases flow at low rpm.
• Higher strength pistons and connecting rod pins.
• Upgraded main bearing design.
• Oil circuit changed to increase oil flow/pressure to the turbocharger.
• EGR cooler bypass is introduced to reduce soot build up in the EGR system.
