    Project Thread: 1986 F250 “Farm Truck #1” Build Thread

    RD2-80cc pump is mounted. Thanks Justin. The fuel rails have been as interesting as I expected. I’m going to try a new approach with the passenger bank. 1. With the injectors removed from the engine, gently plug each injector into the fuel rail 2. Similar to an injector thread protector...

    Are you saying that the pump I have here is a factory reman pump? I don’t know how the world of reman works, but I wonder if that means it came from older tractor cores (older than this 1989 van 7.3). That would be cool. I’m told that the whole truck has 270k miles, but I know that the motor...

    Pulled the old pump off last night I’ll clean it up and inspect it before sending it off to Justin as a core.

    Thanks. I’ve bought a DTI timing kit so I expect to get it dialed in. Anyways, here’s the pump!

    Ray-Wel High Flow Intake System?

    No sir, this truck showed up with a 6.9 and a T19. I grabbed the T19 and bellhousing to keep as a spare. The hood was in incredible condition. I may be going back for it and the fenders, as I need one the driver side

    Ray-Wel High Flow Intake System?

    A reduction in smoke could be an interesting test. I’m putting an R&D IDI RD2-80 pump onto my 89 7.3 n/a van motor, and I don’t have a turbo for the engine at the moment. It’s in the works. A new kit is obscenely expensive and they’re only going up - I’m thinking about using the same amount of...

    Ray-Wel High Flow Intake System?

    I agree, I’d like to have this top renewed & restored with new paint. It’s a nice looking cap.

    Project Thread: 1986 F250 “Farm Truck #1” Build Thread

    I bought Justin’s remaining RD2-80cc from this run. There are a few N/A pumps remaining as of this post. I have a question: I’ll be running this RD2-80cc pump on an N/A truck, until I can turbo and stud the heads. If I keep my foot out of it and pump screw turned down, Will I run into any...

    Ray-Wel High Flow Intake System?

    Reviving this thread because I found this: There’s a Dyno tuner around the corner. It would be a fun test to answer the question of how does this air cleaner impact wheel numbers.

    What does this noise sound like?

    Thanks, I just read through your thread, and I’ll go back to it when I do that inspection.

    We Found another 86 at the Yard today and I saved the T19 from the crusher. No way I was going to try and wrestle with pulling the 6.9 that was still in the truck, but it looked like a core motor. I’m going back tomorrow to grab the injectors and other misc parts off of it like the intake...
