for now anyway. From what i research my HP goals are achievable with this setup and VE pump. It may be a little more work that a P pump swap but im going to stick with the VE for its simplicity and tune ability. Got a couple things done today.
oil pan on and sealed.
bran spanky new cummins oil pump.
New cummins thermostat and gasket install as well as the water neck. Taped it for 1/2NPT to go to -10AN. When you start building high HP numbers as well as turn higher rpms. The water pump starts to build a lot of pressure in the cylinder. Combined with the heat generated back in the number 5 and 6 cylinder, the rear freeze plug is known to shoot out. I purchased a billet plate that bolts in and has 1/2npt hole in the center. An adjustable regulator will then be installed into the rear of the billet freeze plug. At a set PSI the valve opens and relieves hot coolant from the rear of the engine and sends it back to the top of the radiator. I have more pics on it when i get the engine off the stand.
