    Arduino Gauges

    I figured I should start my own thread for this, here’s my version of an arduino and gauges. I wanted something that would go into the factory location and replace those 4 useless gauges with something that is more accurate. These little 0.96” OLED displays fit nicely, have great light output...

    093 turbo inspection questions

    Going through my factory ats 093 turbo and there’s a few things that look odd that I’m hoping the turbo rebuild guys could help with. First is the center section on the exhaust side where an oil sealing ring runs, is it supposed to have a grove in it? Second is the oil sealing ring has wear...

    Main bolts into oil gallery

    Doing a crankshaft swap on my engine and I noticed every main cap has one bolt that goes directly into the drilled oil gallery, I’ve never seen this before and can’t seem to find anything online. Is this normal for the idi blocks or is my already “super special” engine even more “special”...

    Fan clutch upgrade...

    Been reading about better fan clutches or going electric and the general consensus is mechanical is the only way to go, now I have heard/read that one company (Hayden I believe) made a electro-viscous fan that would bolt to the idi but it was very expensive and I believe is no longer made. Now...

    Engine swap, flywheel question

    Im in the mindle of swaping the 6.9 out of my 87 and putting in a 94 idit, the 87 has the c6 and the 6.9 has the "real" flywheel" on it, can that be bolted to the turbo version or is that going to throw off the balance?(I know the 7.3 turbo has a different balance to the regular 7.3 or 6.9) I...
