What size water lines did you run to your turbo?
Heath I’m pretty sure you tapped your heater hoses. tjsea, I think you pulled your supply from the back of the drivers side head like I did but I don’t remember where you returned it to. no mufflers, I honestly don’t remember where you took your water from.
I’ve spent a lot of time thinking and reading and I’m wondering if my temp issue is a result of overtaxing the water pump. I think I put 5/8 hoses on mine so that may be robbing too much water from the system keeping the turbo nice and cool but making the heads run hotter. I have s feeling the heads are running hot more than the gauge is telling me and it’s not showing up until I downshift to bring the revs up and of course push more water.
I don’t know. Just thinking out loud here. Do any of you guys have water temp issues towing? I’m not interested in solving this the way Heath did (nice solution as it was) but I need to do something. She gets pretty warm going over the mountains with the camper and AC on even though the truck really doesn’t seem to be working that hard.
