    I just have nothing so I got the baumann instead of looking for ford stuff after getting 2 TCU's that were known "GOOD" and were wet inside.

    Info on turbo by Turbo Engineering Inc.

    I have done a few of those. The seal is a carbon seal if it is original and Will need to be upgraded when rebuilt. Sometimes takes a few extra parts to do.

    Using 2nd gear with E4OD while towing?

    Im putting an E4OD in the dually with an aftermarket controller. Going to update the trans before it goes in. Its a ford reman for a PS . It will be interesting to see what updates are in it from the reman. Im guessing none. I like the parallel cooler idea.

    1989 idi with ATS turbo. Need a vent hose

    A/c condenser upgrade

    When I did my trucks, my AC guy said all the replacement condensers are upgraded to work with 134. Your problem is your fan is not pulling air across the condenser at idle. Both of my trucks do the exact same thing. If I put a lock plate across the fan bolts to the pulley bolts it cools great.

    Identifying an injection pump..

    DDA has /had one of the biggest foundries for engine manufacturing, so its plausible they made many parts for the 6.2-6.5 The engine would have been fine except the mainline cracked at stock power let alone modded levels. The late blocks used by the hummer folks are much stronger. Cant...

    painting fuel tanks

    I use dupli color engine enamel. clean with acetone or laquer thinner, 2- 3 coats over a warm day. The other option would be epoxy primer. Expensive but works the best. Napa commercial has a single part epoxy that we did a water truck tank with, seems to be holding up good.

    fuel system w/ frame rail mounted filters.

    So if you're not running a filter inside the engine compartment I would definitely incorporate a fitting at the top somewhere of the engine with an orifice in it returning to the return block at the back of the engine or the return line wherever you don't want that excess to go through the...

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    clean all the antifreeze residue off of it and after you get the hose pushed on it squirt some ultra RTV under there and that will anchor it to the radiator and it won't flex and break off. Off roader trick from long ago.

    fuel system w/ frame rail mounted filters.

    Oil Pressure port

    Use steel hydraulic fittings. It's a pain in the ass to get cheap China stainless steel fittings to not leak. I have a five gallon bucket full of them that I'm going to scrap because they will not seal.

    That brass is a bad idea, vibration will break it.
