    What is the fastest idi truck

    My boss and I were racing about 2 months ago. My 93 F250 7.3 turbo, ZF5-s42, 3.73 rearend, all stock with 250,000 miles on it. His 2017 Chevy Silverado stock 5.3. I was leading all the way! When we got to work he told me that he back out of the throttle at 103 mph. And I had little bit of peddle...

    Heath, when you say center section, what are you referring to? The cover over the injection pump drive gear?

    Increased Oil Consumption

    Good morning guys, I’ve got a problem here that needs some serious expertise. I’ve got a 93 F250 7.3 idi factory turbo. My normal oil consumption has been about a gallon every 5,000 miles for the last few years. About 2 months ago I deleted the CDR and rigged up a RDT in the grommet and just...

    e4od and how much to toughen it up?

    I just rebuilt an E4OD out of a 93 F250 4x4. It had been rebuilt by one of the previous owners so I can’t really say how many miles were on it. I got it stuck at the river back in December and was slamming on it pretty hard, hard enough that I busted extension housing on it and filled it up with...

    Proposed setup and stock E4OD

    Just wandering, why you choose the 6.9 over the 7.3? If you don’t mind me asking?

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Gotta love the south this time of year!

    Give me a damn Christmas starter recommendation.

    Just replaced my OE starter(with nose cone) with a gear reduction starter from O’Riellys (without nose cone)! Bolted right up with no problems, works like a dream, never knew that engine could crank that fast! My recommendation is new gear reduction starter!

    Awesome looking truck!

    I'm done

    If you’ve some way to pick up the bed of the truck (lift, three good friends that’ll work for beer, etc....) it’s a pretty easy job! Six nuts under the bed, that hold it in place, come off! Pick up the bed and set it off, make you repairs, set it back on, tighten your six bed bolts back down...

    FIPL, E4OD TRANS, SHIFT, FRIKK!!!!

    I can assure you, if your tach is screwy it will affect how this trans shifts. I’ve got two 93s. My DD has the zf5 and the tach has been intermittent for years. So when I bought the last 93 earlier this year I decided I’d swap the sensors to confirm or eliminate that as a problem. The new truck...

    Hope you get it fixed, I love these old trucks and engines. I have two 93s, so my wife might flip out if I show up with another one!
