Glad it came together nicely, can't wait for Wednesday!just buttoning things up. nothing very interesting to show. Driveshaft is at 6-9/16" working length . stock shifter location is useable, but will modify it to have it higher and closer to the left so I dont bonk my dogs head when shifting.
also the lcutch is ridiculously light. The stock dodge clutch in the dodge truck felt very easy compared to the IDI Luk, my clutch pedal in my truck is approx 4" longer than stock, and i have the luk sintered ceramic in this one..feels almost like its not there. I bench bled the whole assembly pretty well...well see how it behaves once i fire the truck up...this wednesday!

I am jealous!Here she is running. Been driving it around since the weekend, love it!.
Small things here and there, finish the wiring, run wsher pump, hook up grid heaters.
Thing smokes blue on cold start till it gets warm though. Not sure what it is exactly.
Going to check valve lash soon, and do a diesel purge clean on it.

When you "bark" the throttle a little, I got a smile on my face! Love the in-line six sound.
I wish I could give 100 likes! One day I hope I can do the same.couple of pics. Enjoying driving it very much. even at 10F lights off no problem with no grid heaters. smokes blue real bad on cold start, fine when cold. Thinking its injectors, they are most likely original. Also sprung a leak at the fuel fitler head banjo fittings, but got new seals on the way.
Oddly enough when I ran diesel purge through it in a closed loop, and cold. no smoke. Once i switched back to regular diesel, it was back to blue smoke...
