    Saginaw pump

    Hey guys, I've seen people say any Saginaw v-belt set up will bolt up to an idi, but haven't seen anyone verify that. I'm looking to put in a Saginaw pump to deal with my hydroboost. My stock pump is dying and I've only heard bad things about remans. Might as well upgrade. So, do I need the...

    If you were cracking her open, what would you do?

    I have consistent bubbles in my rad, overflow issues, and a very very slow coolant loss. There are no other signs of issues of any kind, but I think my headgasket is blown... barely.

    I want to finally get Gear Vendors unit, have questions though.

    I ran my GV behind my c6 with 3.55 gears for almost 2 years. I had it set to engage at 55mph like a 4th gear. It made the c6 tolerable. I recently swapped to the zf5 and kept my GV. double OD running 85 im turning 2,000rpm. 18mpg. at 2,000rpm I would have to downshift to keep speed going up a...

    Looking for some parts sources for a couple of parts I need

    I tapped the port for the fuel heater because it was leaking. Put in this pressure gauge with some red loctite. Works great and hasn't leaked or had any issues for a year and a half now. This gives me lift pump pressure pre-filter. Always good to know if your lift pump is working and if your...

    Transmission struggles

    I've never driven an e4od truck. The fuel leaks are narrowed down to return cap o-rings now for the most part. Think that could cause the trans to shift weird? It also has a very hard time starting. Has electric lift pump.

    I have 3.55's and a 460 zf5, I never use 1st, always second. shift @ 2,000 ish and don't bog it. I have my pump turned up and I don't let it smoke at all. With my GV on (double overdrive), I ran 84mph @ 2,000rpm and got 18mpg going on i10 to SA for the CDD IDI meet. I had to drop the GV a...
