Which is better GM Duramax diesel or Cummins Dodge. What are some opinions?

It depends on what you're asking they are better about. the Duramax is cheaper to upgrade and has better fuel mileage and stock the Duramax triumphs over the Cummins in torque and horse power. but there is a lot of stuff you can do to them both but the Duramax is all around less expensive. and as to which one lasts longer that can vary, the Duramax has proven to be a very reliable engine but the Cummins also has one heck of a reputation. Cummins= 350hp, 650 ftp of torque Duramax=365hp, 660 ftp of torque

What can you do to make a duramax diesel smoke?

Smoke is just unburned fuel, too much smoke is not good for the engine. Anything that causes the engine to run rich, or have more fuel in the fuel to air ratio will make it smoke. You can either put in more fuel by using a better lift pump, or using better injectors, or you can starve the engine of air (not recommended) by unhooking the turbo or putting a paper bag over the air filter. Smoke is just wasted power, a truck that burns all this extra fuel runs much faster. Note that the fastest duramax in the world blows little to no smoke.
