Cheap pyrometer
You’ll see about 190* cold idle, maybe 300* hot. Your temps should run roughly x10 your mph. 60mph=600*. Free flowing exhaust might drop that 50-100*. Cold ambient temps will drop that x10 also. Wot will get you to 1200 no problem lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

4.10 to 3.55 swap for $85 -- worth it? (Rear only)
Too bad you ain’t closer, I’d swap you front and rears free. I want 4.10 and have 3.55. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

Cheap pyrometer
2” and 2 1/16” gauges are all the same. Some people leave off the 1/16 and then there’s manufacturing tolerances. 1/16” wont make or break figment. I’ve put 2 1/16” in 2” pods and visa versa. Some are a little snug, some are a little loose no matter what pod/gauge combo you run Sent from my...- austin92

Dead silent, can’t hear them, and I appreciate the slight noise from the stt pro’s on my 96 5.0 so I’m not exaggerating on how quiet they are Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

Favorite Fuel Return Kit & Why?
Regular kit. My best friend has an 87 7.3 that had sealing issues with his billet rail though. Not putting down r&d, he makes good stuff, but personal experience is pushing me away from his return line kits. Neither of our trucks had/has air intrusion issues, just took a few tries to get it...- austin92

Tire choices
I just wanted to post an update/conclusion. I put 275/45r16 load range E Goodyear wrangler AT adventurer on my truck and so far I’m very happy. I’ve actually had it wheel hop on snow. For a 2wd truck it’s doing very good, no weight in the bed, 35psi rear, 6” snow I can’t complain. It’s no mud...- austin92

Favorite Fuel Return Kit & Why?
I pulled crusty o rings off my 88 and 83. 88 got an eBay 35$ special with no leaks/air intrusion. 83 got a kit from r&d that leaked fuel so bad on to the exhaust manifold I thought I popped a radiator hose one night. Didn’t see any obvious o ring cuts or anything but still could’ve been me, idk...- austin92

2008 Escape
A 258 crank will go right in that 4.0 and with 30 over pistons it’s a 4.6l. Still cool, no pain of engine swap Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

Up grade for 1993 idi ?towing
Pyrometer measures exhaust temp. 1100 perfectly safe. 1200, back out a little/don’t hold it there all day. 1300, let off throttle, under no circumstance sustain this temperature. That’s how I read my pyro. Usually stare at it while towing lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

12psi and maxed ip makes what, roughly 480ft lbs? I think first year power stroke was 525? Makes sense lol. I’ve heard ford told IH to not over power their 460 too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

What’s something like this worth?
Yeah, way more than I’d pay. If it was a GOOD engine and GOOD turbo I think 1000$ would be my cap but not an ideal price to pay Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

Up grade for 1993 idi ?towing
Lots of people turbo na motors with out breaking anything. If this was true, turbo blocks would be worth more than my truck lol. Yes they’re stronger, but that doesn’t mean a studded na 7.3 can’t handle 15+psi. To the op, a turbo is going to be your best bet on towing performance. Banks and...- austin92

lightweight and smallish diesel for Fox Body Ford
Not sure the weight but there’s a guy out here that has a 3.3L 4cyl Cummins in his jeep Comanche. Said he really likes it. Found an adapter to mate it to an ax15 5 speed. Said it came out of a big wood chipper. Wish I knew more about it for you but it’s something to go off of. Sent from my...- austin92

Mine has such a slow leak I have to top off maybe twice a year. Pedal feels different, grabs low, and is hard to get in gear at a stop. Top it off and all is well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

My buddy runs it on his na crew cab. It’s very quiet cruising but noticeable if he gets on it. Out side the truck is pretty loud but not obnoxious. I like it Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

T19 tob squeal/ linkage questions
I wasn’t saying it completely lifts off the pressure plate. I was going off the concept of how you’re not supposed to drive with your foot resting on the clutch pedal. That extra pressure causes increased wear. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92

That 1/8” is there to keep tension off the tob. If you shim it, it will make the tob wear faster Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- austin92
