    94.5 f350 7.3 psd wont start. Looking for pcm in houston area

    Do you have it out? And if it's already bad you have nothing to lose to open it up. you might just see the problem (like a bad capacitor leaking). And there would be a chance yo could fix it for a few dollars soldering a new part in. most of the time that's all these repair services do for $$$

    Even if you find one. Odds are your old one can be repaired. I did this myself to the module in a '92 (trans module) Had a bad diode & capacitors. You might even talk to a computer repair, tv shop, etc. in your area to fix it.

    97 F350 tcm

    Might just see about repairing ECM. Pull codes of course. I repaired mine. Had a bad diode, capacitors, and worked fine after the fix. I would think anyone who does electronics repair should be able to handle it.

    Can you guys tell me about my new 6.9

    I had the same air cleaner on mine. Replaced that when I did an intercooler and intake mod. Also 3" downpipe into 4" exhaust. Making the engine breath easier, especially the difference from that Banks intake made a huge difference.

    Need help banks first gen turbo kit

    Take an old wrench, heat and bend it (see pic) helps get to those bolts back left I think where there's no room to turn a wrench. And I replaced some with allan bolts instead of studs because the tool (long hex bit) fits where a socket and extension doesn't.

    Need help banks first gen turbo kit

    You should have the up-pipe and flange for the banks from the donor engine. If you didn't get that with the turbo then you'll have to fabricate the y-pipe, and the flange you can get on ebay and weld. The center cartridge on the Banks is the same as Garrett TO4B. There's some pics just paste-...

    Need help banks first gen turbo kit

    I agree. u-clamps suck. Downpipe on mine with the 1st gen Banks is 3". Don't know if yours for sure would be the same.

    Need help banks first gen turbo kit

    Dry fit and--So you have the downpipe bolted up as normal. Just find a spot where the v-band will fit and be accessible. Mark pipe,cut and weld flange and forget about the bolts to the turbine the next time you might have to pull the turbo.(there's some that are a real b to remove) I also put a...

    Need help banks first gen turbo kit

    Just thought of something else. Do yourself a favor and weld in a V-Band flange at the top of the downpipe. Then you wont have to mess with those bolts on the turbo outlet. The original air filter on the Banks really restricts air flow. I got rid of it on mine, added an intercooler and 4"...

    Need help banks first gen turbo kit

    The part number is 93001. You can do a search. Just put the number and the word gasket in the search. Summit has it. T-04 GASKET. Banks would be no help.

    Will it work? Or your suggestions?

    This is interesting. Why can't thing be easy/simple solutions? Guess I have more to ponder and then go with what should work best for my application.

    COOL! (pun intended) I do like the visual. Really makes me wonder even more how stupid it is to block off those water jackets!

    No problem. I'm learning a lot from ALL the comments.

    Will it work? Or your suggestions?

    North Bend just far enough, but still too close to Seattle! Sure hope you don't have to do the I-90 commute. Looks like a cam should be on the list. And I finally remembered the cooling mod. Why did Ford plug up those passages? For emissions? DUMB! And I wonder if the term "rolling coal" doesn't...

    Macrobb - yea, I'm a short drive to where they are. Sent a message through their site a few days ago, but no response.

    Thewespaul. What is under your hood?OMG! And I know you all in Texas are crazy! Speed limit on SURFACE streets is 50/60mph. (around El Paso) What's the hurry! You gotta be pulling 12/14k or more. Josh Bear, did you search images for "locomotive smoke"? There's some that look awesome! You...

    Will it work? Or your suggestions?

    I do have a trans cooler and trans temp gauge, EGT and Boost also. Champion 3 row radiator. I used to drive truck and was surprised how fast temps went up pulling a full load (80k) through the mountains in so Oregon and n Cal. I did these passes with a (company truck) Cummins M-11, (330hp) and a...

    Will it work? Or your suggestions?

    Thanks all! So do you guys think it'll pull 10, maybe 12 k OK? My concern is getting up and over the mountains out here at a reasonable speed. And yes, nothing's bulletproof. Just that who sold me the truck claimed it has a billet converter and tranny rebuilt for towing, but who knows!

    Will it work? Or your suggestions?

    So I have a '92 which I posted doing the intercooler on. Well, that's all good, but the engine is TIRED! I picked up a '94 IDIT engine to rebuild and install. My plans are to build it to pull a 5th wheel RV. Lots of mountains any which way I'd travel from here (pacific nw) So here's my idea...

    adding 94 turbo to my truck

    I wondered what was up with it. That's a shame because with the turbo block you get the larger oil cooler, I believe the heads have some mods, and whatever. I myself am hoping those differences Ford made do help (like with the bottom end, wrist pins rods) Because real soon here I am going to be...

    adding 94 turbo to my truck

    Dumb idea. But if the donor is a factory turbo engine, why not just swap engines? (Stronger, bigger rods, etc)

    Think It Might Work on an IDI?

    Yea Jason, that paints an interesting picture. Imagine if Mator (CARS) in place of DeLorean!
