    7.3l idi C-6 transmission case

    they are breaking right through the bottom left bolt hole out through the bell housing. And no its not worth running an idi against these new trucks thats why im done pulling idi trucks. What kinda of money you need for a tranny?

    7.3l idi C-6 transmission case

    Tractor pulling to much too hard, the gassers do it too in the same place on the case, but they are esaier to come by. Im pushing alot of torque with the NOS and propane it twist up hard when you hit it, but this one is getting retired now for a hunting and street truck

    Yep me and my stepson were in it! the fuel filter stopped up. I pulled off the side of the road and was opening the door to get out when i saw him in the mirror a split sec before the hit! Knocked the front axle completely out of it!

    Yea 10-4 had a drunk in an unisured MB run right under the drivers door at over 70 mph flipped the truck on the side! So I bought a 93 from a a farmer with a 5.8l and put all my parts from the 89 on it!

    Strange oil leak. Trying to pinpoint the problem.

    I had oil pool up in the valley once and it was the timing cover leaking right under the IP pump

    Us Gear OD

    They are discontinued and extremly hard to find. Is it a underdrive/overdrive unit?

    4.10 vs 3.55

    I have for the life of me never understood the fuel milage bit around here. I buy trucks because I need a truck, which is not famous for fuel milage. However I want a truck to preform like a truck not a big car with an open trunk. Which means power and moving the load. If you need fuel milage...

    4.10 vs 3.55

    Good lord man 3.73 with 44's you must want no power at all. I had 5.87 gears in my 79 ford, 460ci, C6 trans with 44's way back when and that to me need more gear. I could not imagine that combo.

    From 16mpg to 10.5mpg

    From what you just said you hit the nail on the head. @ 65 with 4.10 gears a C-6 tranny and OEM tires you should be at or just over 3000 rpm, excactly the same way mine are set up and your driving habits sound a lot like mine. 10 to 12 Mph is right in the ball park.
