OK, that's the info I was looking for, displacement x rpm.

More info for ya! To work out fuel flow of a Diesel engine. Multiply the engine HP x .18, = flow in GPH.
I'd really love to know what a factory Fuel filter assembly is rated for. My Patrol's flow is 145.7 Litres Per Hour.

Interesting, however I can tell you my 6.5 does not use anything like that, verified with twin flowmeters and a fuel management computer. I don't think anyone would get very far down the road if they used this data!

Yes, I should have said, maximum fuel flow. e.g being hard on the go pedal, absolute flat knacker, pushing as most amount of fuel the engine is capable of, for an hour.
Flow for an engine, is measure at maximum, so in reality, yes the engine would not come near this. It would be impossible to rate flow at an average.
That calculation too was given to me by Parker at our last conference, its what they use, and being probably the most knowledgeable company in the world for fuel filtration, I can only assume its right.

Installed a 200 ah Enerdrive lifepo4 battery and Enerdrive 40+ dc2dc charger. Should keep my 2 Waeco 50l fridges (one used as a freezer) humming along nicely. Covid willing will be heading to the Geo Centre of the Simpson in April, can't wait.
The lifepo4 battery replace two Fullriver 105 ah AGMs I have had on board for years, saved 40 kg in weight
Time Marches On .....and on ..... and on

Kicking my own ass now for ordering build stuff backwards with rushed nuffy self electrical knowledge after seeing your top design post above:
Ordered a slimline AGM a few weeks ago for my twin fridge/freezer setup too:
Dropped into Piranha for a dc-dc thingy yesterday as was kindly educated by @
matfew was truly needed to protect the AGM from my winch cranking main batteries.
Turns out the new Redarc thingy is also capable of Lifepo4 which in hindsight could’ve replicated exactly your top Lithium setup too
Stay safe, have fun out there in the center, plenty of happy photos pretty please

That agm will be plenty good enough for what you are using it for MB. Don't regret it, it will kick ass!

It’s not just you Hodgey Mate
Every stocky TD42T I’ve ever owned also must be broken, I too shit myself pushing ours past 3,000rpm as it’s completely useless power wise beyond I’ve nuffy found
