After the engine is built and in the truck I’ll start on the intercooler. Yesterday I got the manifolds painted with vht and installed them with new hardware and anti seize. Then I installed the crossover and up pipe assembly, and set a T04Z I have in stock in place, did a torque on the studs one last time and torqued all the rockers.

Next I blasted and primed the valve covers, then cleaned up the stock ip before opening it up to shorten the governor, bottom the leaf spring screw, adjust the advance, replace the delivery valve, back out the torque screw, and adjust the transfer pressure setting. Always want to have the pump clean before making any adjustments.

The valve covers dried overnight and I sanded them down this morning. The driver side needed another stage of primer, but I was able to color and clear the passenger side. Also got the engine mount adapters cleaned up and painted with a good chassis paint.

Got the injection lines painted and drying overnight then I’ll be able to complete the fuel system. Tomorrow I’m going to finish flushing some buildup out of the oil cooler and get the cooling system finished up to go for a first test fire as soon as the new turbo comes in from the balancer.
