So I recently bought a 7.3 idi and I’m planning on doing a full build, I’m going to list my parts list and some other cool things I’ve seen and just get some opinions on it.
I’m planning on doing a compound turbo set up with a 67mm or 76mm feeding a 96mm turbo, it’s also going to get arp head studs with CDD’s fire ringed head gaskets along with getting the head fire ringed themselves. I’m also planning on getting bigger ports machined. I’m going to use r&d’s psd converting connecting rods and pistons along with there ring kit. I’m also going to have the block brought to a shop to have it sleeved and decked. As for oil and coolant I’m going to use CDD’s coolant filter and there oil catch can. For top end I’ve read on a different form the supposedly you can use roller rocker from a v10 viper motor so that’s the plan there and then I’m going to use CDD’s Johnson hylift lifter set. For fuel I’m going to use CDD’s e-fuel conversion kit, conception injectors, and 250cc injection pump.(would it worth while to convert to a p pump setup? Ik I’ve seen it done on other idis)
If there’s anything I missed or anyone has some ideas or thoughts about the build please lmk. Thank you!!
