    C6 flexplate vs 94 IDIT

    I remember that on the flywheel i removed from my other truck. I cant remember about the flexplate. i'll have to look through the parts box where i kept this, if it was on there it's in there. Seems like lots of people have these though i thought they were hard to find. Does anyone have a...

    C6 flexplate vs 94 IDIT

    This is the part number I have to compare. The truck was a vin number match 1994 idi turbo, I removed the engine and had it overhauled and had to spend $240 on just the rings because they were special and almost impossible to find for an idi turbo with the stock turbo pistons. Two keystone rings...

    Zerex G-05

    That's interesting, not really a deadly mixture. The potassium hydroxide is used to neutralize the phosphoric and keep the sodium molybdate in solution. The purpose of the phosphoric is to provide phosphate which will protect the metal. Usually leaves a dark gray color as does the sodium...

    Zerex G-05

    Always di water. Tap water will have maybe 200ppm of alkalinity. Di water, less than 5ppm. Chlorine at 1ppm isn't bad sodium nitrite will neutralize it instantly, but hardness from tap water can form magnesium silicate on heat transfer surfaces with the presence of silica in most coolant (and...

    Zerex G-05

    That's not true at all. There is no buffering capacity in Di water. It will accept whatever pH your coolant is. Your coolant is 10-11

    Zerex G-05

    Silicates are absolutely compatible with "SCAs" (sodium nitrite and sodium molybdate). Too much of any of the 3 will cause issues though. Your best protection against aluminum is keeping the pH below 8.5 which won't happen on any coolant designed to protect steel/iron all of that coolant is...

    Oil in valley pan

    CDR is installed on manifold at back of intake? How is that even working? It's going to be pressurizing you crank case the entire time you're under boost. It would probably be blowing some oil out around the grommets too. Never mind I misread that post

    Thinking of building a trailer

    I'll try to grab some pictures tomorrow. It's got dual cylinders and I've drug 9000lb electric reach trucks up on it. what's nice it's it power lifts so high you can easily remove all 4 wheels to service even without a truck hooked up to it. When you use a manual tilt what you're loading has to...

    100,000 miles later.

    That's crazy. I moved one thing that heavy with a srw and wouldn't do it again haha. (Didn't get a pic of it chained down or after I put air in the tire) I moved it about a mile just to test the trailer and truck with that weight. Trailer was 7500 I think the truck was around 14k

    100,000 miles later.

    Wow bumper pulling that backhoe with a srw is impressive. What's that like 18k with the trailer?

    catch can - CDR delete

    Similar to this one but i tapped it for 3/4" NPT or ordered it like that i cant remember. It's somewhere out in the garage http://www.ebay.com/itm/1-Litre-Oil-Catch-Tank-Fitting-Kit-Universal-Polished-Aluminium-Catch-Can-/191984659961?hash=item2cb32d6df9:g:pg8AAOSwLF1X7~Zw

    catch can - CDR delete

    Yup that's why i ordered one that had 3/4" pipe threads and used a 1x3/4 barb. I used 1" hose for mine too. I couldnt find one that was 1" NPT but 3/4" should have been close enough.

    catch can - CDR delete

    I used a 1 liter version of that one and i really didnt catch any oil mist with it. I did notice my front main leaked more i believe from the extra hose running to it caused some back pressre on the crank case as the turbo really doesnt pull any vacuum on the filter

    Thinking of building a trailer

    And if you're gonna go with wood i would use 5/16 self threading bolts. I just put a new deck on mine with 2x10s and bolted every cross member with two 5/16 Self tapping bolts. Took me 7 hours to strip the old deck and put the new one on by myself. I drilled almost 200 holes and only went...

    Thinking of building a trailer

    I highly suggest going with a power tilt trailer. If you can make the trailer you can make it hydraulically tilt. I use mine for everything. I picked up an 8x12 shed for $300 the other day. Backed right up to it and winched it on by myself. My wife took a video of me taking it off which could...

    Question regarding bench seats

    Mines been about 10k miles so far with no issues. My seats have a one piece frame like the old bench seat and sit just on the outside of the seat reinforment rail. I used two oversized fender washers undeneath for support and 1/2" grade 8 bolts with lock nuts. Hasnt loosened up yet.

    Are you going to add fins on the outside to help cool it? Cooling more so than baffles will condense the vapors. I'd mount it at the front of the engine where the clutch fan is blowing, or in front of the radiator if possible. You could probably get away with aluminum it resists corrosion well...

    Question regarding bench seats

    I used some seats from the rear of a 2004 crew cab. Just had to notch the console some but drilled 4 holes and they fit my single cab perfect.
