    hey yall gotta 6.9 in my boat

    they are a tough old powerplant though... but they run about the same hp/tq as a 4 cyl cummins or Isuzu out of the gate, stock to stock.

    hey yall gotta 6.9 in my boat

    No, mostly PowerStrokes, like this is mostly for the IDI. Both sites have mebers of the other type. HUGE difference between wht you got and a Stroke. 1 wire makes yours run, PSD has a brain. The baddest fastest IDI here barely scratches the surface of a STOCK PSD. Your engine take's it's...

    hey yall gotta 6.9 in my boat

    Most folks over here will tell ya that its kinda a waste of time to build real power, the kind you want out of one of these motors. Head on over to PowerStrokeNation, and do some sniffin'. There is a cat there who is building an IDI that'll run yer boat right up to and embarass all the Cummins...

    For those of you with a ZF5.......

    My Expedition E40D just lost the battle for survival to a ZF 6.. there are smarter things to be done than throw a dollar at the DAMNED abortion of a transmission.

    Building a 6.9 to kill

    Hairy, go see .... umm, can't think of his name, but the bloke that runs alternative fuel injection off Garrity. He doesnt do EFI diesels, only MEchanical... he should be able to answer your questions about the limits. Head up Garrity, when you get to the Jungle, start looking for 39th.. take a...

    i keep losing prime

    Check for air everywhere in your fuel system. I dropped my tank and worked out from there. the root culprit (I had issues in tank as well, after that tank surgery it would hold prime if I didn't run it), was a lack of teflon tape on the inlet side of my e-pump. Teflon taped that, and lost all...

    SUV to convert?

    Are you asking if what I linked was a honda ridgeline? Umm.. NO. In the 90's it was the only full size topless one ton SUV available off a dealers showroom. That lil' guy (140" wb...) sold new for 50-55k in 1993. A PSD with Leather 2 years later flirted with 60... and mine with ZERO...

    Smokey black truck UPDATE. Screwed up my Rally plans, but still had FUN.

    I started a thread, "Trouble in an IDI Paradise." This black truck is doing exactly what the FIL's truck does, except Bobs is easy starting, and has no ill manners. Just a gallon in 50, and it belches like the pic.

    Lets talk tires. Big ones.

    Friend of mine in Utah built his tow rig, with Rockwells, 46" Michelins... all said and done, economy was similar to stock. Never had an issue with "weak" regarding strength of Drivetrain. 99 Chev Vortec 454 CCSB

    Lets talk tires. Big ones.

    What I was gonna say. I like Pit Bull.. Pit Bull now has radial offerings in "medium sized tires" e.g. up to 41". ANd reasonably priced. Having said that, the Good Years are probably gonna be it for me.

    More power.....idi? psd? cummins?

    DT360. Ford 6.6/BRAZILIAN WHATEVAH or Cumstain. Best of all worlds.. Dmax/Allison. Easiest newer diesel to get 450 hp... and Allisons are bomob diggity.

    ok then, BACK TO THE 1200hp IDI

    Woulda had to have been 76 or 77, as it was rollin' coal in 78. After 5 years of R and D, Ferd ran it production in 83.. selected fleets got it in 81 and up.
