    2022 Rally

    This is a post I have been dragging my feet to make. Megan and I aren't going to make the rally this year. As much as we wanted to we just can't swing it financially between the cost of fuel and how much everything else in life has gone up in price. It's all left our vacation fund almost...

    Rally location/date poll

    @Danielle I casted my vote for the 16th because talking with the wife we have something local the week of the 23rd. With that being said our trek down might be a little dependent on fuel prices too. Depending on the date decided and the hope that fuel prices stabilize or better yet drop...

    2022 Rally

    We'd be in as long as it isn't the week of July 16th. Megan has a friend's bachelorette party that weekend. Of course I'll have to talk it over with the wife and crunch the financial numbers first but hopefully we can make it work! Keep us posted asap so we can make sure we can get off work.

    08 axle in 1993 f350

    I'm pretty sure the newer superdutys had 1/4in brake lines from the master to the rear hose. You might want to double check this. I think the idea of the larger line was because of the rear disc brakes requiring more fluid and the distance it needed to run.

    Zf5 swap

    If you are talking about the angle on the teeth, that is machined into the flywheel from the factory. It helps the starter and flywheel teeth line up as the starter is engaging. Also, yes the IDI starters are all interchangeable with the exception of the early direct drive starters in like...

    How hot is too hot?

    I've actually wondered about this myself. I know the psd uses a bypass blocker on their thermostat and I've always read that if someone installed a thermostat without it in a psd they would overheat under load. I've often wondered that the lack of it in our engines may be the root of the issue...

    2021 Mid-Atlantic Events

    We are planning on going to the junk car race. I'm not sure if we will go to the truck show yet. It all depends what I have going on that Saturday. With springtime in a mower shop we are loosing our minds a bit at the moment, lol! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    "Tank" my 91 Crew Cab Dually

    Yep, those are the Mitsubishi style starters. I'll add insult and say I love my Powermaster too, haha! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    See I feel how the turbo comes alive and cleans things up and it just makes me want to feed it more fuel, haha! All in good time though [emoji16] Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    What Gear Oil Do You Run in Your Diffs...

    Speaking from experience don't add the Amsoil friction modifier unless you have chattering issues. That is what I remember reading on their site back when I did mine. I made the mistake of adding it right away and my lsd no longer works as good as it did prior. From what I've read the synthetic...

    New turbo, no power

    So if I'm reading this right, you drilled and tapped the turbine housing for the wastegate? The wastegate should reference off of the boost pressure, not the drive pressure. Drive pressure is always higher than boost. There is usually a port on the compressor housing, or it can be pulled from a...

    New turbo, no power

    So it sounds like it is running better and that you just need to get the wastegate dialed in yet, am I correct? Did getting the timing dialed in correctly help with power and spool up? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    New turbo, no power

    Yep, like @chillman88 said if you are timing by luminosity the timing figures are far different. The 8 degree setting is for the pulse method only. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    Power loss?

    I would start with having it timed dynamically to 9.5 degrees at 2000rpms and invest in some gauges. If timing is off a couple degrees it will make all the difference in how the truck runs and drives. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    Power loss?

    3k at 65 seems a bit high for an E4OD. My old 86 with 4.10s and a C6 would be spinning those rpms at 65ish and would be on the governor by 70mph. Does it run well other than being low on power? Did anyone ever check and adjust the timing with a meter? What kind of boost numbers are you seeing...

    Sending Unit for Rear Plastic Tank

    If you pull the sending unit out you may just have a bad float. If that isn't the issue there are places that rebuild the sending units for odd ball stuff. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    Lazy lifter & partial miss

    @OldIron82 does your miss change with rpm? I ask because my engine has had a slight miss/shake since I've put my rebuilt engine together. I used aftermarket lifters during the rebuild and have been chasing this annoying miss since. I've checked and swapped the complete fuel system, checked...

    Idit main cap bolts

    I followed the IDIT manual the first time and it screwed me over. It caused me to have to pull the engine again due to bearing material in my oil samples. Turns out the extra torqued egg shaped the mains causing the bearings to wear funny. After talking with my machine shop he said that spec...

    2021 Rally Information

    Any update or plans for the 2021 rally yet? With our wedding coming up we most likely won't be able to make it the full week, but as long as it's close enough we'd love to make a long weekend and visit everyone! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    Project: The New CDD Shop Truck

    As sad as it is something like this can be a major learning time. You said the bearings and valves were good so that means the bearings can hold quite a bit of power and the valves didn't seem to float then. So the real question is what was the weak link? I see the piston is broke out at the...

    blakpete91 88 F-250 IDI Build thread

    Wes, I've seen you do a single piece rear driveshaft on a couple trucks now, what is the advantage of this? Is it just to eliminate the carrier bearing and a u-joint? I always figured there must be a reason Ford used a carrier bearing. I would have thought it would have been cheaper for them to...

    Just added a hypermax intercooler, can't reach fuel filter..

    Just install a flexible hose instead of hard line from the filter to the pump. Conestoga sells a kit for this reason, but you could probally make one pretty easy yourself. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk
