    New ip and injectors

    Correct, the builder I used in portland for 40+ years cant build a pump that works right. 3 hot start issues on the last builds, was told by the new regime, "well its in spec". Had to send them to Justin to fix them. The one guy that was doing them retired. Justin built me a few but I cannot...

    Better than new IMO, all other things being equal, Genuine Mahle are the best.

    Pending Machine Work

    Do not let them put in thick margin valves. Also valve depth should be near 60 thou deep. Dont let them tell you it will hard start, it wont . 21.1 comp ratio has its advantages. Ive done many engines this way , near 50, never an issue. ALSO I have never replaced valves unless stem is worn...

    Knocking after injector change

    Is there an end to this? And It would be nice to know where the absurdity comment came from. AND there are standards at which injectors are tested/ set.

    Max safe sustainable RPM

    My dually has a stock 7.3 with NA pump. It is making 10 lbs without the fuel turned up, on a used factory turbo, and its night and day different than NA. It will stay like that till I do up the new engine.

    Max safe sustainable RPM

    these rods are very tough, they are not going to stretch. They do bend when repeatedly boosted to 50 lbs. As witnessed when I rode in Justins bronco. Fun ride.

    Max safe sustainable RPM

    Those stories are with High mile valve springs. I always put new springs on with a cam swap or headwork. Most turbo swaps wont be making enough pressure to be a problem. Ive seen to many broken springs in my career resulting in a dropped valve to fret over 100 bucks for new. Especially with...

    Thread locker orange vs blue for fan clutch

    If it's tightened properly that'll never happen.

    pickup tube strainer required?

    Know the return hose will not work. You need to use truck air brake tubing and as said push it on there as far as possible and even put a worm type clamp on it will hold it on there but I like the crimp type. And then keep trimming it until it's just a little bit off the bottom sliced at an angle

    Unidentified Flying Plug

    I advise people to do exactly this when they've just acquired a truck that has a bunch of hacked up wiring and add-ons. Put it back to stock and almost all of your problems will go away. Then you can properly add accessories.

    7.3 IDI Cranking but not catching.

    Use Stanadyne blue label, its designed for lubricating these pumps. WAY better than ATF.

    New R&D injectors

    The injectors had nothing to do with hot start issues. It may have aggravated it but didnt cause it.

    $745 Driveshaft games

    Dont move the radiator, put the IC behind the bumper, works fine. If you have a 92 up use the PS bumper with vents, If not , get the vents and cut the bumper. Radiator HAS to have the pins or the weight of the core/coolant will crack the header plate. You can come look at mine anytime.
