    Well you have the advantage of 2wd and an automatic Elijah, haha! Plus my 5sp needs new syncros so it doesn't always like to shift quickly. Thats on another list of things to do, haha! But hey I'd be up for going to a drag strip as long as the wheel hop on mine isn't too crazy with the new found...

    Project Black Stallion

    The turbo is the one he had in stock. I checked and it is a .89 a/r exhaust housing which is the tightest T4 housing they offer. Yeah, I'm using the hypermax mounting system, but I am planning on adapting my headers to the the hypermax up pipes. At the moment I'm not going to run an...

    Type f or Mecon atf for powersteering?

    So I'm in the process of replacing my steering box and powersteering pump on my 85 F-250. My questions is my 86 calls for type F atf in the powersteering, but my brothers 97 F-250 calls for Mercon atf. I'm just wondering if one is better than the other or if it even matters since everything is...

    How does the power feel compared to your banks system? You said even at 15psi it cleans up all your smoke, right?

    project: watch out Kentuckians

    Nothing like a nice miller, I learned that years ago when I worked at a machine shop. I can never go back to cheap welders now, haha!

    project: watch out Kentuckians

    So are you happy with how quick it spools, or would you go one size tighter on the exhaust turbine housing? I am almost positive I'm getting one now, but it all depends how much I spend on this rebuild.

    project: watch out Kentuckians

    U.S. Gear Dual Range & c6 off '87 CC

    Is it a 4x4 unit that goes between the transfer case and transmission? Overdrive or underdrive?

    Finally tore into the dually

    I think a freind of mine has a valve spring checker. I'll have to have him see what the pressures are on the old springs just for curiosity sake. @typ4 do you believe the weak springs allowed the lifters to pump up and cause this?

    C6 flexplate vs 94 IDIT

    I have a factory turbo flex plate, spacer, ring, and bolts as well. I'm putting it in a 5sp truck so if you need a flexplate just let me know, I'd be willing to part with it. And yes the engine is verified as a factory turbo motor.
