Id would also agree about moving away from the main 3 for a turbo kit. These kits were designed 20+ years ago and while at the time they were leading edge things have changed alot since then. I would talk to Mel about his moose boost or talk to R&D about a stage 1 turbo setup. The S200/S300...
Hey everyone,
Last weekend I finally swapped my new to me motor into my 85 and I'm slowing getting around to installing all of the accessories. I am having an issue with the dealer installed AC bracket/power steering bracket. Does anyone have any pictures of how this all goes together? At this...
Ive been slowing working on getting my old engine out of the truck so i can drop in my new one. Motor mount bolts are kicking my ass, being 31 years old they fight back a little.
You should throw this on a 6.9 you have built and dyno it. Also photos!! Look forward to seeing this take off, its certainly been a long time coming. Thanks for all of your hard work!
Are the studs not installed yet? Also the R&D stage 1s? Are those the injectors or stage 1 turbo kit? I might certainly be interested in taking some of those parts off your hands.
My 85 has dealer installed AC and the wide radiator. Id love to switch to the AC one if i had the pieces available but ill probably just buy another off rock auto.
Would you still recommend the 4KW starter even though it only mounts with 2 bolts? Im looking at ordering a new starter for my engine swap, but dont want to order something thats a problem.
Hey guys,
I was wondering if there was anyone local to me? I live in rhode island, and I'm currently getting ready to swap out my old 6.9 for a slightly fresher one.
I think the hope of spaying oil on top of the pistons to to lube the rings that have possibly dried out over the last few years of sitting dry. This way on first spin its not dry rings on a dry bore. Ill be in the same situation shortly. I just picked up a used motor that was rebuilt not too...
Picked up a new heart to replace my old worn out one. Its been sitting a while, but I was told it only had around 15-20K miles on it. The crank feels pretty tight, I'm assuming rust between the rings and the cylinder walls. Best way to free it up? I thinking some penetrating oil down into the...
If I recall, one of the biggest changes on the powerpack was that the intake lid was raised so it could use a larger filter than the stock filter housing. Then they added a high flow exhaust. I the Ray Wel kits that I have seen in the past also included a larger lid...
So im curious, if we agreed in the past that the pump should get a fuel pressure of somewhere between 4-8 psi at the IP, how does making it 60 PSI change things and is this something we could look at for use in other pumps?
We run Rotella T6 in all of our subarus and its good stuff. In the truck though I havent switched yet, still running valvoline premium blue. Truck seems to like that alot, burns the dino rotella like its going out of style.
Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone else was in the Rhode Island area and knows a good place to get inspected. Last year I had it done at flood Ford but I had to rip off my tint and I like to not have to do that again. Also wouldn't mind hanging out and working on trucks
