    Turning radius--crew cab vs super cab

    I have a kingpin 60 super cab, that is worse than a ball joint one at trying to turn on a dime. You basically have to plot out parking and backing into a spot is easyer to do when not much room, also the slower you go the better radius can be had. I did not pick the axle for how well it steers...

    Tank breather thingy

    Got the vent tingy good and tight, then smothered it in the recomended seal all. So that leaves trying to figger out what is wrong with the sending unit, that was marked as correct... So pryed out the old tank and fought with its unit, for somewhere over a hour and found the new one sundry...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    There is high crankcase pressure and its blowing oil out ever seal it can, that is the best could get it with two cdr valves and vent filter. The engine sat for about 2 years after I overhauled it, so thinking the rings are not wanting to seat right. I have put somewhere over 4000 miles on it...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    I have 3.55 gear and 315/75/16 tires with turbos, and is way better than 4.10 gear with no turbo. With 4.10 gearing and no turbo, she took her sweet time to get up to 55 with a 1ton load in the bed and could think about doing 65mph with no load. With the change to 3.55 gear and the addition of...

My above though might lead to a miserable time making work with fishing my mitts in a tight hole, this spud work but would need to try an find how much room...

    7.3 idi hx35 turbo build

    That will work since is oem and local stock to you, so you dont incur extra shipping fees. Let us know how it works out and if its too high in the rpm for your liking, there is also one under size wheel and cover that looks to have availability if not far off. 58mm/82.04mm comp wheel 3599592 &...

    Tank breather thingy

    This valve is 1in nptf, so its the right size to thread into the given hole nice and tight. Dont think that oem will work out, since this is not pushed in. So what I could think up, would be get this nut to have it welded on or just put jb weld puddy around to maybe make it sealed up...

    Tank breather thingy

    I have no recollection where this rollover vent valve was found many moons ago, but its finaly time for show and tell since now have a gooder tank for the rear. It will tread into the given hole but not sure on sealing it. Is there room above this tank, so that a nut could be welded to the...

    Where to buy a turbo bumper cutout insert

    The plate mount will still work, it just needs a few thick washers to move it outward some.

    7.3 idi hx35 turbo build

    Over on the other side of the aisle with the 6.5 guys, they are liking the spec of this hx40 but this one wont have many quality parts. I talked with one then in the past that also did twin hx35's, that was getting close to same response but said was using a 9cm vs the 10cm I have. hx40wII So...

    7.3 idi hx35 turbo build

    Went digging to see what is next up in size and has a wastegate, where I cam up with this... he351 with 14cm turbine This about what I could find on info for it. I believe it is using a hx35 size turbine wheel but has a bigger compressor wheel at 58mm inducer and 85mm exducer, so would be a...

    7.3 idi hx35 turbo build

    You go up to a hx40, you will be going to bigger turbine wheel and in turn will move boost up in the rpm. Reason I metioned the hx30 turbine as the next step of adjustment for my setup, is that it would give me a smaller turbine since I cant go any smaller with the compressor wheel. Holsets are...

    7.3 idi hx35 turbo build

    What size turbine housing you have on that hx35, its stamped on the inlet to the turbine? I have twin hx35's with 10cm housing and is about right in size to have non wastgated housings, with about 6psi back presure high in the rpm with no load. I dont have my gauge panel sorted and dont have a...

    Running without a fan or shroud?

    I can attest to the fact that one small fan will keep almost keep the engine from thermal meltdown... Im not sure on being able to cram twin windstar fans on a idi rad, but 95 taurus SHO ones show would. These fans do adequate at keeping the idi from getting hotter than a hoochie c**chie, but...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Good point on something that needs done. I stoped at the parts store and got one, since is easy to get and this one was spair in the f100. This one if for 1-4 psi and dose sliting, so maybe could run two small engines off this pump.
