In this episode of the Power Driven Podcast, we sit down with none other than Lenny Reed from Dynomite Diesel Products (DDP), one of the most respected names in diesel injector technology. This conversation dives deep into the evolution of diesel performance, from the early days of sled pulling with janky setups and burned clutches, to today’s cutting-edge common rail injector strategies, EDM precision, and the science behind why extrude honing might be killing your power.
Lenny shares raw stories about how he got started, the hard lessons learned from broken parts and bad advice, and how those failures led to the injector advancements we all rely on today. We talk about the horsepower arms race, how to make 1,200hp streetable, and why your injector spray angle might be silently sabotaging your build. The episode also covers the big-picture stuff, emissions regulations, the real reason trucks cost six figures, and how American manufacturing can (and must) evolve.
If you’re into tuning, dyno battles, injector flow rates, or just want to hear two OGs talk shop about what it really takes to go fast and not blow it all up, this is one you don’t want to miss. Whether you’re a daily driver diesel guy or a full-on competition builder, there’s something in here for you. Want more raw diesel talk?
