New injectors, shaking at stop lights
I'm running his 110 cc now and really notice an amazing difference. Also running his stage 1 injectors as well. Really woke my engine up and believe it or not, a bit quieter. Minus the turbo whistle, it has gotten a bit louder but nothing too bad. I'd give him a call or check out the website and...- frankenwrench

New Project 6.9 E350, what did I get myself into.
I have looked in the past plenty on sourcing 6.9 sleeves and have not come up with much luck. The 6.9 and 7 both have their advantages but it has been in my experience that the pros for 7.3 have outweighed those for the 6.9. I have had several 6.9 and have actually went to the 7.3 in all my...- frankenwrench

Lost brakes
I've had really good luck with I've had really good luck with the tokico 1 1/4 MC's. Bought three of them about 4 years ago and haven't had any issues this far and seems to take a bunch of the loose pedal travel away. Much more responsive imo.- frankenwrench

CDD 110 pump.
Cruising down i-20 empty with the music loud and not paying attention I noticed some cherries and berries lit up behind me. Looked at the GPS and realized I was going 90. Bout sh*t myself. One, cause I barely had my foot in it, two, I knew that I would be lucky to get off with a ticket in that...- frankenwrench

CDD 110 pump.
That will help a lot cause I do ease out quite a bit with some heavy loads. We do have some slight hills I like to slow down to 55 and drop to 4 the gear in. But I did notice some small oil and water puddles.the other day and I di have slight weeping from the backs of my heads on those year and...- frankenwrench

Surprising enough, my average mpg comes out to about 20 thus far just driving normally. Still pretty damn good for an old brick running down the road! The throttle response still surprises me every morning. Lol. Back out of the driveway and drop her into second and ease out the clutch and give...- frankenwrench

Lol you are already ahead of me with the idit block. Hold up better to a beating than the na block. I am not sure about newer f600's but if ur dropping it into an older one like the 86 I used to work on all the time I would go bigger on the pump as well as the turbo being u have a stouter block...- frankenwrench

Boost was around 12 at the highest but stayed around 7 the majority of the trip. Egts were 1050 at highest but stayed at around 700. The higher numbers on boost and EGT were primarily from getting up to highway speed- frankenwrench

Like the two I just got! Lol. Still waiting on those turbos though. And I did do some towing today. Buddy needed his 5th wheel moved so I had that to do Didn't actually do bad at all. Seemed like nothing on the guages behaved any differently while towing other than my temps got up to about 210...- frankenwrench
