Parts for Detroit Diesel 8V71 Turbo – Blower Section

The Detroit Diesel 8V71 turbocharged engine combines the power and durability of the classic 71 Series with the efficiency of forced induction. While the turbocharger supplies compressed air, the blower remains the heart of the system, providing essential air scavenging and ensuring smooth combustion across all RPM ranges. At Diesel Pro Power, we carry every critical part for maintaining or rebuilding your 8V71 turbo blower—from rebuilt assemblies and shafts to gaskets, couplings, seals, and installation kits. Each component is built to meet or exceed OEM standards for reliability and performance in marine, industrial, and heavy-duty environments.

Rebuilt Blowers for 8V71 and 16V71 Turbo Engines

Our rebuilt Detroit Diesel blower for 8V71 and 16V71 turbo engines restores full airflow and boost integrity to your system. Each blower is professionally remanufactured, pressure-tested, and precision-balanced for factory-level performance. Sold with a refundable core deposit, it provides a cost-effective way to restore original engine efficiency without compromising quality. Rebuilt blowers help maintain the precise air-fuel ratio that Detroit’s two-stroke engines depend on, ensuring strong power output, clean exhaust, and dependable operation under load.

Blower Oil Tube Assemblies and Repair Kits

Proper lubrication ensures a long blower life. Diesel Pro Power offers blower oil tube assemblies in both 1/8” x 1/8” and 1/8” x 1/4” configurations for Series 71 and 92 engines. These tubes deliver consistent lubrication to bearings and gears, preventing heat damage and scoring.

For complete service or in-frame maintenance, the Detroit Diesel Blower Repair Kit for Series 71 turbo enginesincludes seals, bearings, and gaskets. It’s the best solution for restoring worn blowers to OEM performance and ensuring reliability after thousands of operating hours.

The Blower Installation Gasket Kit (covering turbo versions of 8V71, 16V71, 8V92, and 16V92) includes all sealing components for one blower, preventing air and oil leaks that can reduce power or efficiency.

Couplings, Shafts, and Drive Components

Power transfer from the engine to the blower depends on perfectly fitted couplings and shafts. Diesel Pro Power provides blower couplings for thin 48-spline shafts, ensuring smooth torque transfer with minimal vibration.

The blower shafts—available in 7-inch and 7.87-inch lengths—are designed to handle the high rotational speeds of turbocharged setups. Proper alignment prevents bearing wear and ensures balanced rotor timing. Complementary hardware such as shaft retainers, hub plates, coupling hubs, and accessory drive hubs allows for full system assembly with precise fit and durability.

Gaskets, Seals, and Bearings

Prevent leaks and maintain airtight integrity with our complete line of blower and governor gaskets. From blower end plate gaskets (two required per blower) to drive gear cover, air inlet housing, and governor top cover gaskets, every seal is engineered for long-term durability under heat and vibration.

Protect your blower’s internal components with high-quality blower seals and seal sleeves. These components prevent oil migration into the air chamber, which can lead to carbon buildup or loss of boost. To ensure smooth, noise-free operation, Diesel Pro Power also supplies bearings for the accessory and blower gear drive, designed to handle high axial loads at sustained RPMs.

Air Intake and Control Accessories

Support airflow efficiency with precision-engineered air box kits, breather valves, and aftercooler gaskets. The air box kit regulates internal pressure while keeping contaminants out of the intake system, critical for maintaining turbocharger performance. Pair it with a 4-inch air cleaner for clean intake air and longer turbo life.

Marine and industrial users can enhance safety and control with shutdown solenoids (available in 12V and 24/32V) for quick and reliable emergency engine shutdown. For throttle and governor connections, Teleflex Morse ball joint and clevis terminals are available for 43C marine control cables.

Finishing and Assembly Supplies

For leak-free assembly, Diesel Pro Power provides High Tack Gasket Spray Sealant, formulated to hold gaskets firmly in place and resist oil penetration under pressure. Once your rebuild is complete, finish with Detroit Diesel Green Engine Paint to protect against corrosion and maintain the authentic OEM look of your 8V71 turbo engine.
