    Retrofit CP4 to a CP3 on and LML

    Hi, I had my turbo fail due to non functioning veins on my 2013 LML. The shop that changed the turbo is pretty well known for doing the 50 state legal CP3 conversion on LML engines and they recommended since we were almost all the way there we should just replace the pump since it has 160,000...

    Has anyone tried the Banks intake on an LML engine

    Some pretty caveman types have boogered up my air box and I'm getting concerned about the ability to seal and filter correctly. Thinking I'd consider a new Banks airbox assembly and possibly the ram air attachment. Has anyone tried this unit?

    IDI Turbo for sale

    I have what I believe is nearly complete IDI Turbo. I've run a Banks system so I'm not real aware of all the components. This came off and engine I bought site unseen and had it shipped to me. Seems to be in good shape. There is the usual mickey mouse use of incorrect fasteners that I've...

    Can't delet a post on Market Place

    I'm trying to post a couple pics and make an ad for and IDI Turbo and the site doesn't like something in the post. Likely the pics. There's an error message with all sorts of jibberish the makes no sense to me so I figured I'd delete the post and start over. I see no place to delete the post...

    7.3 Serial #?

    Sorry for my ignorance, but what does "iirc" mean? Also, I can't find them on the internet and the number that is on the decal on the engine says it's to a freight or shipping agency. Thoughts? Thanks,

    7.3 Serial #?

    Yes the engine does appear to be black. And thinking you're right about The Dealers Diesel and not Diesel Dealers.

    7.3 Serial #?

    So I've nailed down an engine that I was led to believe is a 7.3 IDI Interim Turbo, that is 40,000 miles from a rebuild by some place called Diesel Dealers. Now that I have it I can see that it likely wasn't an interim Turbo Engine as it looks like someone added the parts from one to make the...

    Hi, It is extremely likely that I will be posting a Factory IDI Turbo for sale in the very near future. Soon as I get the engine that the turbo will come off off, I will evaluate and catalog all the parts. I will then post pics and description. It is my understanding it works fine and is in...

    Banks Sidewinder on an Interim 7.3 IDI

    Yes, you're right. My original question in the post was to see if the Banks unit will go on a Factory Turbo IDI with out issue. If I didn't have the Banks, that factory turbo would be a very welcome sight. I really appreciate all the help provided here. Reading all the feed back on this...

    Banks Sidewinder on an Interim 7.3 IDI

    I'll take a gander at the bearing wear on the Factory Turbo. The Banks unit was installed in 2013 and run 'til 2017. Then got coolant in one of the cylinders. Not much time or miles on the Banks unit.
