    This weekend its finally time

    Thanks a ton! Yes I am on stock body mounts, a body I'm sure would help immensely fitting a larger turbo like the he351ve, the adapter from t3 to the he351ve would help as well, might be tricky to get it on the ATS drain pedestal at that point. As far as the turnout on the compressor housing...

    Idi vs powerstroke

    Oh there's no doubt, one of my buddys street drives his 1000 horse 12 valve, but its not very streetABLE. Whereas a 1000 horse Duramax for example has no problem running to the grocery store

    Yep, 750hp 6.4 TOW RIG with an enclosed trailer, following a 1200hp Duramax race truck. The Duramax got better mileage even, tuning is a wonderful thing.

    Also if you were to see a few 500-1200 horse trucks perform in person your "not a hotrod" opinion might adjust a little.

    Idi vs powerstroke

    Of course there is no comparison to an N/A IDI to a Powerstroke towing :shaking: hang a decent turbo on an IDI against a stock Stroker and pull the same hill and it might be a little more fair.

    Need some serious help if we have any North Idaho or Eastern Washington guys..

    Yea I have to lift the 205 under my 79 with a floor jack, I can one hand this Borg Warner up. When I started my teardown the tranny mount nuts werent exactly "tight" so that may have something to do with it. That linkage towcat posted definitely isn't the one I have

    Even with splits the extra fuel will help, those are very close to Superduty injectors as Im sure you know and a tuned Superduty is a decent mover. The .84 exhaust housing helps too.

    Ill be sure to post pics when I get the old adapter out since they arent "supposed" to break like that. Thanks for all the help everyone!

    Good deal, I found a guy locally who I cant believe I didnt think of before who has a gold mine of Ford drivetrain parts. He has a few he said plus complete trans an case combos. Meeting up with him on Friday after I pull mine all apart to make sure I get the right one.

    38mm gate, welded into the crossover under the truck. I wasnt paying enough attention when I mounted it and it hangs way lower than I would like. It flows enough air that I dont get boost creep. It flows a lot of air though, the rush is deafening if it opens at high RPM again a retaining wall or...

    Digital Advance Timing lights.

    I have one made by Actron, has similar features to the ones posted. I like mine, can use it like a typical old timing light, if an engine is really out of time you can dial it one way or the other to at least get a visible mark and see how far off you are, also shows RPM. Mine claims it can be...

    Mine is definitely the z-bar then, I vividly recall popping out the ball and socket joint from the long link piece. The first style I dont see the ball and socket joint. I really dont think mine has the two bolts on the bracket to adapter but Im still waiting on pictures. Since I dont have a...

    Exactly, small injectors with a laggy exhaust housing doesnt make for a very quick truck.

    Idi vs powerstroke

    Yep, both of us rowing manual transmissions, I think my shifting helped a lot. His has a TS 6 pos with 4 inch exhaust and a cold air intake of some sort. I also have an HY35 on mine which spools very quickly and if I grab gears fast enough dont lose any noticeable boost between shifts.

    What are your gears? 4.1 Im guessing, mine is done at about 95 on 35s. If I ever get my valve springs and gov spring in however... Edit: I have 3.54s

    Noe that I googled a 1345 shift linkage I think I may have been thinking of the wrong thing. Im pretty sure the shift actuator on the case is a lever. I asked my buddy to take a picture of the linkage and where it mounts on the adapter when he gets home since its at his house, I already unbolted...

    Idi vs powerstroke

    It's all in the sig or my build thread, all the fuel I can wring out of the stock pump, Holset and some timing when I want it.

    That would be awesome for those measurements! you guys are a huge help! Also the BW that's on there is not the original case, although I'm pretty sure the one I pulled off of it originally was a BW too, but who knows if that was even the original in the trucks 28 year life
