    Where to cut

    If he’s running a turbo pump on an NA engine another contributing factor of his higher EGTs

    Where to cut

    It’s an NA IDI, If I understand you correctly, the 2.5” doesn’t matter just run whatever is easier to accomplish what you want. On my bronco I used a new Y you just mentioned and then 2.5” turned down by the passenger door.

    Rebuilding a 7.3 IDI Turbo

    You can use gator studs for the IDI which are under $400. Reviews are mixed, I tested them on the engine in my bronco no issues so far.

    Project Stress Test

    Choosing not to run one in version 1 IDIs love heat and diesels run cooler, part of my initial thoughts. Rather have hot water in it then a busted radiator and no water.

    7.3 tear down/rebuild (hydrolocked)

    I’m over 20 hour round trip from you so unfortunately even if it was free I would think twice

    Talk me out of it, please

    If your long term strategy is to remain living on the road I would prefer the bus platform

    Dodge 3500 towing

    Nothing like blowing kegger intake manifold gaskets on 5.2/5.9 magnum engines and peering down the butterflies with a flashlight to see a pool of oil. I have to thank magnum engines - because of them I swore off of gas engines in trucks and it resulted in me buying my first idi

    Tire dismounting and mounting by hand, IDIBRONCO style

    I use a manual tire changer and just did 8 tires this weekend. This thread popped in my mind. For anyone doing it manually the first time I want to emphasize that you read and understand @IDIBRONCO explanation of a drop center in the introduction. If it doesn’t make sense conceptually, when...

    Project Stress Test

    I’ve done some testing and I’m estimating to get to 253 degrees of water in the heads which will then start steaming off. Then if that steams off it will essentially be dry blocked for however long.

    Dodge 3500 towing

    Most people if they aren’t dodge folks like the Cummins but don’t like the truck around it. I’m relatively indifferent to things. Ford IMO has the best build & price portal and setup for customizing truck orders. I also like how they split the commercial and non-commercial service and sales...

    Hydroboost Conversion

    Just use OEM parts. You can get them new/refurbished. I’ve done quite a bit of testing in this space. If you want a list of part numbers let me know.

    Oil pressure delay

    I’ve ran T4, T6 (full synth), cheap conventionals, up to 130cc pumps on my engines. No delay. I don’t think your issue is oil or pump.

    2024 Mid-Atlantic Events

    Green is newb, blue is intermediate, red/black advanced. I brought a grand am with welded up suspension on green for reference. SXS are a different part of the park and doesn’t mix in but I haven’t specifically asked before if they could hang with the rigs.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I volunteered at a county fair with the bronco pulling dead cars off the track and it did great. Pulled cars in third gear np205 in low with zero gas once rolling. Also went across the scales.

    1988 IDI Bronco

    I hear you. This is a dedicated work/play vehicle and not a driver besides around town and as needed. It will be trailered to the trails. For the “work” aspect I want to put a plow on it one day if I move further north to a larger property, I plan to volunteer with it pulling derby cars off of...
