    Fuel mileage

    for oil i use rotella synthetic blend. im not a big fan of additives for anything involving gears. unless you have the time to sample bottle everything that are clear so you can visually see how it mixes and then touch it and rub it on your fingers. for additives, 2-stroke, atf, clean wmo will...

    What to buy? 7.3 or 5.9 12v or 24v

    heres my 02 cents. my ford went to heaven if you jump to the 6.9,7.3 idi forum youll see my post. the 7.3 idi/7.3 powerstroke are tough as nails. i put my through hell and even had duramaxes and common rails eyes wide open for what my did. if you want a all in one near equal across the board...

    very labored start

    make sure all your supply and return lines airnt leaking from the installation kit, i know they give you the c-clip style clamps, not hex screw style. take your air cleaner off and look behind and feel with your fingers make sure nothing leaking there. have you tried driving it for awhile...

If I'm going for the stright pipe stack look flappers are in stock, just to prevent rain rusting out my exuast when it's not running, the only crap part about those shells is drilling that 3" hole or bigger is going to be a PITA. Where that firing pin is at...
