    Agree to disagree?? That's not something you see much of these days.

    R&D stuff

    Well... The 90 is a db2.... The 150 is a db4... The 110 is a db2 with db4 internals.. What exactly would you call it then? Usually when you do something along those lines, it's called a hybrid.. doesn't matter how many parts you use from each. Kinda like when you put an hx40 compressor...

    The rd-110 is a hybrid like I said. It's based on a db2 with a db2 head and some db4 internals. States it right on his website. Lol

    Depends on the pump. Would be something to ask whom ever you purchase a pump from.

    Valve train questions/issues

    If I were in your shoes... the builder that I paid a substantial chunk of change would be standing behind their work... building me another set of heads and replacing pistons if there has been damage done. I'm sure they warranty their work... don't they? If so.. it's their problem...

    R&D stuff

    Just a heads up... The RD2-110 is a hybrid db2/db4 pump.. it produces 110cc at peak hp.. but over 130cc at full tilt. Unless you are planning on 300+whp.. it's more pump then you need. Most seem to be more then happy with the RD2-90 in a street/ daily driver application. As far as his...

    '90 F350 Crewcab 4x4 "BFTD" Project..

    Months.... I'm running the banks adapter with 1" hose to the intake. I get very little oil residue in the intake tube... No noticeable oil use... I'd say that's because of the design of the adapter and the near 6" vertical rise to the intake tube from the adapter. I also have a 5/8 line...

    '90 F350 Crewcab 4x4 "BFTD" Project..

    What CDR valve? Doesn't have one. Intake tube stays fairly clean.. I'd say less oil in the intake tube then what used to sit in the intake when it was NA and had a functional CDR. What ends up in the intake now is just vapor that drops out. I would have went road draft... But can't...

    '90 F350 Crewcab 4x4 "BFTD" Project..

    Well, FINALLY got my rear-end finished and swapped in last week and what a difference! Old one ready to drop... IMG_20170725_231525422 Cutting out old, twisted hangers and shackles... oh.. and check out that custom hitch install. LMAO.. the guy was actually pulling with this setup...

    2015 GMC Dually Diesel

    What is she looking to do with it? I've got a '16 Denali 3500 DRW sitting in my driveway.. loaded.. lifted.. sitting on 24" american forces with a bunch of extras... built trans with receipts.. just over 16k miles on it. It could be had for a steal.. friend that owns it wants out from...

    R&D stuff

    You're not gonna want to turn down the 110 and run it NA... I doubt you could turn it down enough. I'd run the pump that's on it currently to break it in... Swap the pump when you add the charger. Stock sized charger ain't gonna cut it either... At minimum, I'd get his 093 drop in or just...

    Proper adjustment for parking brake?

    Yeah... That's what I needed. Mine isn't ran down anywhere near that far. I'll run it down a bit more and see how it does. Thanks!

    1993 Ford F-Super Duty XLT - "Log Truck" (new to me truck-pic heavy)

    Yeah... Those controllers can be a PITA sometimes. Considered going with a Baumann US Shift controller? The one I have on my 4l80e is great.

    Proper adjustment for parking brake?

    Ok... shoes are adjusted and it stops great now... still no parking brake. I adjusted the slack out of the cable and with the tires off the ground, I cant turn the tires by hand with the brake set... but it still wont hold the weight of the truck on anything more then flat ground... So...

    1993 Ford F-Super Duty XLT - "Log Truck" (new to me truck-pic heavy)

    Sounds electronic to me. Did you only swap the one solenoid or did you swap all of the electronics when you pulled the pan?

    Proper adjustment for parking brake?

    I hadnt rebuilt drums in a LONG time... then I decided to rebuild the whole axle and regear it. I just backed it in the shop and will manually adjust the rears and go from there. I thought the pedal was riding a bit low on stopping. I had fully flushed the brake system after swapping in the...

    Proper adjustment for parking brake?

    Hey guys.. Anyone have specifics on how the parking brake is supposed to be set? Everything is new in the rear including brake cables. Brakes feel good but the parking brakes do nothing. The rear cables move the shoes... so I must not have them adjusted right. With the pedal released...

    Surging? Burst of power??

    Gotta give you crap... it's typically me being too slow so I have to jump on the opportunity when it arises.

    Too slow. Lolz

    Surging? Burst of power??

    From my understanding, the sudden burst of power you feel when air hits the IP is from the timing advance system of the pump. When small air bubbles hit the pump, the timing advance pretty well pegs giving that "burst of power" feeling. To find your air leak, I'd start by putting a small piece...

    Who sells a good glow plug controller?

    Wouldn't need an RV water heater sensor... just use a standard coolant temp switch that is normally closed and opens in the 140F-160F range. Run the ground for the timer relay through that switch so as long as coolant temp is below 140-160, the relay will be grounded and will trigger the glow...

    Who sells a good glow plug controller?

    That's why I run mine via push button. Only triggered when needed.

    Bauman E4OD controller

    Ive got an optishift bauman controller on my 4l80e in my Tahoe. It's simple... it works. No bells/whistles.. no bs. Not sure about differences between the e4od unit and the 4l80e, but I'd us one on an e4od no question.

    Who sells a good glow plug controller?

    Build your own. Get a 506-902 Stancor solenoid and a 12v timer relay. Set the relay for 10 seconds and either set it to trigger via key on or a push button. Key on, the relay will cycle the glow plug solenoid for 10 seconds or push the button once and it will do the same. Nearly bomb proof...

    New 10.25 pinion has lip under pinion head.. shim wont seat??

    The shop was using what I provided. The shims that came with my national install kit had the same ID as the bearings meaning they were a snug fit to the pinion. With that slight chamfered lip on the pinion (which my stock gear set didn't have), the shim wouldn't sit flush against the pinion...
