    Examine this turbo...

    That is a normal part of balancing. NOT a problem.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Fixin' her up. What injectors/box?

    I'd say 4" exhaust, quad adrenaline, and rv275 injectors. You'll be more than happy! You'll need to do something for a lift pump too.

    hard starting 03

    Just got done replacing injectors in a friends 03 truck for the same reason. Took care of the problem.

    Great Smoke Stories!

    On the way to the dyno yesterday, I was running with 3 other friends. We hit the main road an all firmly planted our foot on the floor. My lil 4bt took out about half a mile of road! Not much traffic on the road at the time so I felt safe in fogging my friends! They said it was pitch black an...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) NV 4500 operating tempature should be?

    Interesting. I have a 1/2 ton chebby with a nv4500 and 4bt. After 2 hr of empty cruising, it read 202*. I have amsoil in the trans. Should I be changing it? I did think of using a pump and cooler to keep it cool. I do tow sometimes and I hate to think how hot it gets. I just put the gauge on so...

    Web browsers

    Safari here... with a mac. On my windows machines I use firefox and chrome. Chrome is a very easy to navigate and use browser. I have a friend who does lots of website building. He says when people with older versions of IE get on it somehow corrupts the root/structure of the site. I never use...

    24V cam in a 3rd gen?

    I've installed several 3rd gen cams. Everyone noticed better bottom end power and 2 - 3 mpg fuel mileage. I'd recommend haisely street puller cam. It seems to have been my best experience so far.

    any one ever pull there motor ?

    Cheers on the extra soft driver seat and the extended range fuel tank!!! The 3rd gen trucks have that goofy support bar held in by 8 bolts. I usually cut it then weld it back in place after the job.

    Great Smoke Stories!

    I wuz sitting at a lite the other day. A suburban pulled up beside me an beeped his horn. I opened my window. The guy says Hey, u know you need a tuneup? I looked at him like, HUH?? Yeah he says, I'm a diesel mechanic and you need the rack retuned. Take it to a good shop and they'll fix it up...

    TCI Converter

    A friend tried one on an '05. The stall speed is lower than idle on the common rail motor. When he pulled it in gear the truck lurched and the turbo started to spool cuz there was a load on the engine. Not the worlds coolest converter.

    4 BT swaps Who has done them and in what ?

    I have one. A '92 1500 chevy truck. P-pump, twins and 5 speed. Using dodge motor mounts. They're a lil rougher than the mounts used in a bread truck.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) HX40w ???

    What I tried was a hybrid with a 12 housing. We removed the 8 blade and then it spooled nice. Maybe something else was goin on? That's just been my experience.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) HX40w ???

    My experience: 8 blade is very slow spool. I had several people who tried it and nobody liked it. 6 blade is faster and better flow. You decide and mebbe it'll work for you. Let us know.

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) ignorance

    Fire-rings are a very heavy metal O-ring placed in special cut grooves (usually head and block) and a factory head gasket is used with the metal compression ring taken out. That's where the fire ring resides. Clear as mud?!? I wouldn't recommend fire-rings for street use. I have them and...

    Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) 5" muffler search?

    I have a very short donaldson. Baffle in the center. A 3" hole saw met with the baffle. Now it flows air and turbo sound but is still quiet. Just another idea.

    Holsets and Duramax

    It's the wheel put in a high flow hx40. Better known as a super 40. It's a friend of mine that does it. Just a one guy shop. Playin around and found this lil trick.
  17. GDMRTN

    Holsets and Duramax

    I have a friend who will put a super 40 wheel on your stock turbo. Then it'll wake the bottom end up a lil and sound good too!! We tried this on an 02 and the guy is wild about it. Sez much better low end power and nice sound. Otherwise stock motor. This may not work for you but it did for us.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) free delivery valve mod's ??

    I been cutting my own for a long time already. The best cheapest mod anyone can make. It's called a full cut delivery valve.
  20. GDMRTN

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) help, lots of mods, still lazy

    Sounds like a stock setting afc. Loosen it and see what happens.
