DHD Budget Hooker Duramax Short Block 2001-2016 6.6L

DHD's Duramax engine program is known nationally for its durability, attention to detail and quality components. You wont find the value that this build offers anywhere else.

DHD's Budget Hooker builds are designed for customers looking to increase reliability and performance at a moderate level. Due to nearly infinite variables its very difficult for us to assign a horsepower rating to this build. We can however assure you that many of our customers are successfully running this build with 600-750HP. These build components pair well with upgraded turbochargers and injectors.

Our entry level short blocks come bare. Block, rotating assembly and build specific balancer and flywheel. 

If your looking for a more complete short block solution, check out our short block plus! Our short block plus is by far our most popular build configuration. Its perfect for customers looking for a professionally sealed and prepped short block ready for cylinder heads. Much like the budget hooker short, its a unbeatable value!
