    Harmonic Balancer differences between 6.9 and 7.3 NA

    I have a 6.9 engine with a harmonic balancer that doesn't seem correct. The pulley doesn't sit evenly on it and the timing mark doesn't line up at 0 degrees despite the timing gears being set correctly. I've got a harmonic balancer from a newer truck, unsure of what year, but it had a...

    GearVendors behind ZF5 4x4 - Anyone done it and care to share their setup?

    I picked up a GV unit for $350 meant for an E4OD equipped RV with a driveline brake. Bolts right to my transfer case, seems like it'll bolt right to my ZF5 4x4 transmission as well. The issue with this particular setup is the transfer case shifter linkage mounting, I'll need to figure that...

    2WD Super Duty front brakes to match 10.5 rear axle swap wheel pattern - easy or complicated?

    I have a 1986 2WD F-250 SRW. I am planning on doing a Sterling 10.5 swap in the rear to get disc brakes with a parking brake. The wheel pattern changes, I can either drill it out or change the front to match. I have a line on some 17" Eagle Alloys in 8x170 that I could put on the truck, or I...

    Parts for sale - Gearvendors for C6, Banks Sidewinder, Saginaw pump brackets, etc

    Early Gearvendors unit with C6 tailhousing. Doesn't say Gearvendors on the actual unit, however I sent pictures in to the gentleman that runs https://www.maximum-overdrive.com/ and he told me it looks like an early unit. It definitely wouldn't fit a Volvo where Laycock ODs usually come from...

    Smoke after turbo install

    I'm getting quite a bit of smoke after installing a turbo. I had the truck running well before the turbo, now it smokes at idle and even worse at throttle. Smoke makes my eyes water, seems to be fuel related. I have these following questions: Do I need to turn the fuel up to get a more...

    2WD C6 to ZF5 driveshaft question

    I thought I had this all figured out, however I think I just ran into a snag. All the threads I read, and have now reread, seem to point to a C6 to ZF5 swap not needing anything done to the driveshaft. However, this seems to pertain to the 4x4 swaps, not 2WD. I have a 1986 2WD long bed...

    ZF5 swap - Another throwout bearing question

    I did search through some threads, found some fairly old ones or ones not quite relating. Figured I'd repost and see what answers are available in 2021. I purchased a Luk 07-225 clutch kit and the throwout bearing has a chip in the plastic from shipping. I couldn't find a number so I grabbed...

    Funky exhaust setup

    The previous owner removed the Banks turbo from the truck I purchased. What was underneath the truck is what looks to be the old Y pipe that had been hacked and a, well, custom exhaust installed. The exhaust was connected with some sort of metal foil wrap and some screws. Certainly less...
