    Totaled my truck(pics) What should I do?

    Totaled my truck(pics) What should I do?

    i have a clean title in hand. the body is actually fairly straight, one fender is a little bent up. is an good running truck, IFS, wouldnt really want to rip the thing apart. but if you have a supercab long bed frame and D60 front ill trade straight across. I barely felt it.

    hy35 an upgrade?

    hx 40 seems awfully big and w/ a smaller shaft, these came off of 8.3 c cummins.

    hy35 an upgrade?

    dads upgrading the turbo on his cummins. its the baby hy35. would this be an improvement over my banks turbo? ie worth the work/fabrication? if not ill just get an hx35.

    Exhaust brake on a idi

    buckhorn summit on our brakes = no good. burt im not sure what you could check with gauges either. my dad seems to think they are harmless if used correctly, and hes an engine builder.

    Non turbo idi hood stack

    lol insanely loud. you can get away with a hood stack on a turbo setup because the turbo acts as a muffler. i still dont see with the infatuation with ANY kind of stack no offense though, to each their own...

    IDI "What if..." Durability and build question

    dont think number of bolts has a lot to do with it its all about black and head design, ie; deck thickness/webbing, water jacket placement, head bolt placement, distance between cylinder walls, heads design to clamp more evenly. its a matter of design, and if i remember right my dad told...

    IDI "What if..." Durability and build question

    see yeah, im simply regurgitating info i have read. i dont know which head flows more. i didnt see numbers. also, i was assuming with the precup and what not that they just flowed poorly. is the design more volume or velocity orientated? so with that said, if fuel being there and we could...
