I can confirm the above, measured with digital calipers on both. i know supposedly the 351ve inducer is a slight upgrade over the 351cw, both are 60mm inducer but the VE has a larger exducer. i think my terminology is right...

Might be a good idea, if I may, what did he charge to do that?

Picked up a spare HE341, thought of rebuilding and keeping as a spare. Now I've been thinking of making a hybrid. what are the options? A: thought of changing the charge side to 351 housing and wheel. B: port and polish both sides and open the exhaust bypass and add the 351 side. C: aftermarket...

The typical enthusiastic response "oh it will work great! Lower EGT's and better fuel mileage! I recommend you have us rebuild it though just to make sure it's still in balance." "How much is that?" "Oh, only about 900 bucks, but then you know it's good to go..." "Holy crap, between that and...

Bump for more info.

Question for the turbo guys. Got a good deal on an industrial injection phatshaft turbo, wondering if it is worth the effort to make it fit the truck. Tag says Phatshaft 64/76 6.0L It looks like it was a 64/80 and somebody scratched the 76 over the 80. Guessing industrial did it, wish...

Cerb Buddy of mine has an 03, the guy he got it from said it was an 06 motor but used the 03 computer. He says the head tag is 03 but is worried that the block might be 06 How can you tell? He also had to replace an injector and wants to make sure he didn put an 03 injector in an 03 head...

Update. Truck is back. After many pan drops and adjustments he finally resorted to installing a new stock style servo and a slightly stiffer spring than stock. Downshifts are now crisp and quick with no flare. The 2-3 up shift feels like a stock shift with a light pause, not great but...

Crappy options. Drop the trans to change the lever to 4.2 and buy a lever or buy the TCS servo for $110 and hope it works with the 5.0 lever and superior kit. Superior says their super servo works with 4.7-5.2 levers and is a "must use" in diesel applications. Does that mean only with a...

Just spoke to tcs, they said the same thing, the super servo isn't needed. Too much pressure, they said to see what apply lever superior recommends with their kit and use a stock style servo like theirs.

I looked in the box, he stuck everything back that he swapped out so the whole kit was used, the stock servo shows signs of binding on the shaft. I would say he used the stock lever since the kit doesn't come with different ones. I've read the 4.2 lever helps. Superior said they don't offer a...

Talked to superior again today, they said because the super servo has more apply area and the band used is a full surface band there will always be the slight drag feel to 3rd He said without this overlap there would be a flair or slip bump to 3rd and would do damage to the 3rd gear clutches...

That's a tough one, he says he's installed a bunch of them and every time these trans's end up with overlap on the 2nd to 3rd Even the superior trans guy said it was common and their fix was to keep backing off the screw. I'm afraid running with overlap is going to wear the band or clutches...

Shift kit is K48RE The K080-MAG And the K086 kit He also installed all new electronics with borg warners, the gov pressure sensor is the new style borg. Not the gm though. Superior says all parts were correct for the 03 48re

I see this one has been hashed to death but I'm not getting concrete help. For those of you who have superior trans stuff. I had a trans shop install the shift kit and both low rev and 2nd gear kits. After that I had no 2nd gear, the shop said it was because the band was down to the rivets...
