    GP Connector Replacement Tips

    Apparently it is rumored the 6.0 harness can be made to work by removing the connector. You can pick up both sides for less than $40. Nice and clean setup.

    Hydroboost Conversion

    Riotwarrior is correct. I forgot about the MC hole spacing over on FTE. The hydro boost MC has a wider hole spacing.

    Disc brake dually

    Vacuum sucks! Hydro is awesome. Replaced everything (calipers, pads, rubber hoses, shoes) including booster on my 88 DRW. Took it off and sent it packing. These should have come OE with hydroboost. The hydro swap does to the brakes what a turbo kit does for the motor. Daylight and dark.

    Hydroboost Question

    I swapped the whole assembly after disassembling the doner checking bushings and adding grease to the cross shaft. Manual trans on my truck and donor. Didnt see point in taking apart pedal assemblies since both trucks were standard trans.

    Need a little help with Brakes

    I changed everything from booster to the wheels. Brakes still sucked. I got fedup with it and put a hydroboost on it. Hydroboost is AWSOME and hands down best upgrade to truck made it much safer. Even better upgrade than turbo IMO.

    Vac pump delete ideas

    Since Ive done the hydroboost conversion the idea has been sparked to delete the vac pump. Ideas? Still need to run the heater controls though. I have thought of adding the little electric pump from a newer truck. I dont have a 3g conversion so i dont want to draw to much on alternator. Thanx

    whats your oil pressure at???

    11-12 hot idle 9 idle after a good pull 35 cold Numbers were alot higher before my turbo install. Maybe turbo line bleeds off alot of pressure or placement of sender

    Some hydroboost swap questions

    Havent disassembled it yet but looks like the plastic bushings are good just looking onthe outside. They move easily by hand but will br replaced and greased before installation. Anyone know the dorman part # off hand?. I got the pin bushings.

    Fuel Sending Units

    Buy a gasser. Cut off fuel pump mount extend tube with brake line and compression fitting then plug your connector on the two of the four terminals used for the sender. The other two for fuel pump power. Mine works well so far.

    banks gen 2 install (bout time)

    What the heck? Ive lost 10-15psi of oil pressure. Let it warm up good after work tonight and gauge was on 0. Went up to 20 after a little throttle. Oil filter was warm so oil must be flowing. Never got over 25-30 on the way home even at 3000rpm. Now i have oil in the valley pan too back...

    This pump has never been dynamic timed. Should I back off some timing just to be safe until I can have it timed correctly?
