1. Understanding Your LB7 Duramax
Technical Features of the LB7 Duramax
TheĀ LB7 DuramaxĀ engine, produced between 2001 and 2004, is renowned for its power and durability, making it a popular choice among diesel enthusiasts. This engine is characterized by its 6.6-liter displacement,Ā direct fuel injection, and turbocharging, which together offer an impressive balance of performance and efficiency. One of the most significant aspects of the LB7 is its lack of an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system, which many owners find advantageous due to the reduced likelihood of soot build-up in the intake manifoldāa common issue in later Duramax models like the 04 DuramaxĀ and beyond.
Why Modify the LB7 Duramax?
Modifying the 2002 DuramaxĀ or 2003 Duramax versions of the LB7 engine allows owners to unlock additional performance potential, enhance reliability, and customize their vehicles to meet specific driving needs. Given that the LB7 does not come with an EGR system.
With a deep understanding of your LB7 Duramax, you can now explore the core modification products available to enhance your engine's performance and reliability.
Conclusion
By following the step-by-step installation process and committing to regular maintenance, you ensure your LB7 DuramaxĀ continues to deliver optimal results. With these modifications, your Duramax engine is well-equipped to handle demanding driving conditions and provide a more enjoyable driving experience.
FAQs
Q1: What is the purpose of installing an EGR Delete Kit on my LB7 Duramax?
A1: The EGR Delete Kit removes the exhaust gas recirculation system, improving engine performance by allowing cooler, denser air into the combustion chamber, which also reduces carbon build-up.
Q2: What impact will these modifications have on fuel efficiency?
A2: These modifications typically improve fuel efficiency by reducing engine restrictions, allowing for better airflow and combustion, especially when combined with proper tuning.
Q3: Can I still pass state inspections with these modifications on my LB7 Duramax?
A3: Passing state inspections can be difficult with these modifications, especially if emissions testing is required, so it's crucial to understand your local requirements.
Q4: How often should I check and maintain these modified systems?
A4: Regular checks should be performed during routine maintenance, including inspecting for leaks, ensuring secure connections, and cleaning components as needed.
Q10: What should I do if I experience a check engine light after installing these kits?
A10: If a check engine light appears, it could be related to the modifications. A diagnostic tool can help pinpoint the issue, and you may need to adjust the tune or check installation steps.

Awesome product I put the 3" cutouts on my 78 nova and they work great. Easy to install.
After installing the Spelab intake my EGTās have lowered about 150/200 degrees from stock! I tow 90% of the time with this truck, I should have done this upgrade way earlier!
This kit came in a very nice box with all the necessary hardware to complete the installation without any modifications. Installation time was about two hours working methodically by myself with some occasional help from my 13 year old son as he passed through the garage. As many others have commented it would be nice to have some printed instructions with the kit, but it is not hard to figure out. I went with the red version because it was the cheapest, and I think it looks great. After installation, custom tuning with a mm3 tuner, and an upgraded exhaust the 6.7 is opened up and free to run.
Great components solid workmanship very happy with the product and looks really rood. I went with the red
I am a mechanic so itās hard for me to say someone with absolutely no skills that this is easy. But watch YouTube I will say everyone is worried about the egr exhaust bolts. But one video he sprayed them and soak them. I had sprayed mine each time I drove the truck and every morning for 4 days. Than another video a guy said drive the truck get it hot than when you go to take them out hit the socket and extension with hammer to loosen them. So I also did this. They all came out with absolutely no problem. I did have to take off my intake cause I did the ccv and disaster kit as well. And these bolts did not get sprayed. And one did break! I was able to get it out with wd40 and pb blaster and tapping with hammer. To drop dpf I sprayed the hangers with pb blaster used a pry bar and they pop right off. Remember when taking that off you might miss a coupe connectors so take your time! Also the back of dpf I had two broken studs and one so rusted that I had to use a grinder. After got it out I had to take a drill to my existing manifold cause the rusted bolts closed up the holes. Currently I left my dpf tank in the truck. I plan on removing it but I donāt have a reason yes!
Make sure to read all instructions and again take your time. Iām currently having issues updating the mini max cause I didnāt do it before install. But spe hands down was amazing the products everything was perfect besides the intake. The mass air flow sensor didnāt fit and to clean the metal shavings I used brake clean and it melted there spray paint on that one product, everything else i believe is powder coated. I know itās not part of this kit but the cp4 disaster kit make sure you tighten hose clamps I did not do this and it cam off so I had to take upper and lower intake off on the side of the road and lucky the truck didnāt burn down. But I would say that was my fault for not verifying!
Fits great! Easy install! All parts come with this as well didnāt need to go out and get anything. Not only that but the price man thatās damn good
Good fitment on all items. All block off plates fit good and dont leak. Downpipe fits perfectly. All gaskets included good quality.
Iām so happy with my egr delete kit and intake. I made the best decision in choosing Spelab to enhance my 2500 ram truck. Iāll keep buying more stuff from them. Itās starting to be an addiction!! Thanks Spelab!!
The exhaust and muffler fit great. Had to make one cut but that took no more than a couple minutes to measure and make the cut. Iām very pleased with the muffler included, sounds good but keeps the noise down and no drone in the cab. Will buy again.
Everything fit great. The finish is good and it includes everything you need to get rid of that POs Egr cooler
You know how it goes when you try to save a dollar, you cut cost of quality. But this is actually not the case so far. Finish is smooth, no bad cuts that i could see. Plate wasnāt warped with was a concern for me but no leaks this far. Iād buy again
Love the pipe however one band clamp was damaged upon arrival. I was able to bend it back to the correct form and use it. All hangers were in the correct location took about 30 mins for me to install by myself.
Intake came in nice and shiny looks like a great product also got the red intake plate and man oh man does it look sharp, overall I recommend Spelab products. Looks clean performs even better
Comes quickly in a little box. I work on my truck but am no mechanic. It took me 2 hours to remove and install the kit. Im very happy with the outcome. Im going to give it 5 starts but you do have to reuse the two gaskets on the EGR cooler. My advice is pick them up from the parts store so its all new. Total cost is $24 for both. They should be included but im still very happy.
Great product. Does everything it is supposed to do. I do wish it came with printed instructions. Following along with greasy fingers on my phone was problematic. Also, the hose fitting for the coolant line was a size too small. I had to purchase the correct size.
