The SDI uses injectors to put fuel right into the ports, it uses a knock sensor to monitor fuel usage. The Power-Tek is carbureted, but uses throttle position sensors and knnock sensors to do the same. Both great engines.

Both great motors. Both great on gas. Both very reliable. Both very powerful............ If you want the power of an 800 than get the 800. If you don't need the power of an 800 and want a little more fuel economy than go for the 600 SDI. I own a 2004 600 sdi and couldn't be happier with it! Hope this helped.
