    redundant question

    Agreed. You can do a lower barrel swap if you can cut and weld, using a gasser engine core support as your part, but it is much easier if you can find one from a diesel.

    What SCA for what coolant

    The BEST thing to do is to flush your cooling system and put what YOU KNOW is in there. Fluid maintenance is always a top priority on any new to you vehicle purchase, regardless of what it is. While your at it, through a coolant filter on there. The truck will give you a better service life...

    wicked wheel on 093 kit

    So, yes. I did send our eval unit back, and they checked it out thoroughly. What we determined is that there are variations in the compressor housing casting that can result in the wheel rubbing. One of the things the wheel does to improve efficiency is to close up some of the air gap...

    Sounds great! I'm not too upset about the Dyno. I don't think we have a lot of interest in that this time. We are still trying to figure out who/which trucks in our family will be coming. The boys have jobs and Matthias will be in Spain leading right up to the event. I doubt the Night Moose...

    Stanadyne Ds4 on a Ford IDI?

    The cam ring and the primary pump would have to be reconfigured. You would definitely be in uncharted territory for sure. How are you going to mount it? that will be a major hassle too.

    Oil Leak Help

    All the connectors are weather pack style, and I've never had a problem pressure washing a PSD. Just do it when it is cold. My bet is the HPOP.

    Selling Big Blue...

    Sorry to see you go Todd. The exchanges at the Oregon Dairy were fun, and your tales of woe were educational and inspiring. Many have enjoyed the broken crank, and my passing down the stories you told to me. I hope you will still find your way here now and then to exercise your IDI Owner...

    Stanadyne Ds4 on a Ford IDI?

    I'm all for experimenting and having fun, but what you are proposing does not sound like any kind of fun I'm used to having. LOL Most Chevy guys want to get rid of it and go back to a DB2. If you want more fuel, we got that covered. They are expensive, the PMD and the wiring is a hassle...

    Tons of Sterling 10.25 Problems

    If you have even one loose shaving floating around in there, it will wreck your bearings and races. The fact that you had to re-tighten it, means that is probably exactly what is happening.

    2015 IDI weekend

    Yeah I'm not sure why the decision was made to hold them at the same time. The MOB rally is a new annual and should have been scheduled at another time so people would not be forced to choose, but could instead attend both.

    Pro tips with IP install?

    A slow crank speed can affect starting when hot. If your crank speed is not in spec, then the cold water helps congeal the fuel which can overcome the issue. It's not a recommended patch. Verify that you are turning at least 150 RPM when cranking. Otherwise, it's time for another IP.

    Lots of water in oil pan. where to start? Asking for a friend...

    Is it water? Or coolant? Be sure you know. A bad valley pan grommet can let WATER in.

    starter needed, which type?

    I know you can't get them any more, but I'd take a factory Delco unit over all those others. Mine is 32 years old and still cranking after 120,000 miles.

    Does your 84' have the correct injection pump gear housing to accept the tach probe? You'll need that too if not.

    DT360: The beginning

    If I understand correctly, you can't drive this thing yet, can you? I would want Pyro, Boost and horsepower numbers before I spent any money on assumptions. You will need an intercooler for sure. You said this was a multi-year project. Why not get out and drive it some, and accumulate some...

    Excellent. Do we have a head count at this point? We will need a minimum of 12 people wanting shirts to put an order in.

    2015 IDI weekend

    Those of you who have posted that you are going... get on the stick and call the campground. Make a reservation. They don't charge your card the full amount. Just a deposit. This gives us the best chance of being together, rather then spread around all over the campground.
