    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Cummins1942

    If your wanting to build a 24v using a 12v block, yes you can, 12v blocks have different threads for sensors so a adaptor is needed. If you wanting to just swap a 24v head onto a 12v engine it's best to use 24v pistons, you may need to swap in a 24v cam but I not sure, if you can keep the 12v...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Compression Test

    My SnapOn diesel compression tester goes the 600 psi, adapters don't come with the gauge, you buy them individually. I've used it two times in five years, wasn't really worth buying.

    Well I'll muddy it up some more, after a series of incidents with DPF and regen issues causing emergency vehicles to shut down during life saving emergencies, in 2014 Fed exempted emissions equipment on emergency vehicles (fire trucks, ambulances). Now mfg of emergency equipment can order new...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Top of the line "towing cam"?

    HHhuntitail I did some checking and it appears the .050 gasket you mentioned was .050mm and I mistook it for .050in. .050mm is .020in, my bad.

    I understand a thicker head gsk if you deck the block but most go with a .020 over gsk, your the first I've heard of using a .050 over gsk. I don't fly cut the piston I use a piston notching tool I got from Isky years ago, I just got a smaller cutter for 5.9 size valves. Mine's still stock bore...

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) S300 Waste Gate

    I would think anybody that handles b/w style turbo's would be able to get you an actuator. My BD Super B is an S300.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) S300 Waste Gate

    If it's leaking down that sounds like the actuator diaphragm has a hole in it. Can you hear air coming out around the shaft, if so you need a new actuator.

    +.050 head gsk, WOW! Have my short block together but need to check piston height then set the head on and check valve clearance. If they're to close I may notch the pistons to keep compression up.

    Good to hear, I was going to get a stage 2 but they talked me into the big stick, was hoping it wasn't to big for towing heavy.

    Building a new engine for my tow rig also, old engine is puking oil out the radiator and burning oil. After a bit of research and phone calls I'm going with a Colt Big Stick on a single turbo setup.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Fuel plate recommendation

    It takes the place of the fuel plate and allows you to tune the engine in the cab while driving.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Fuel Plate Q?

    Remove the plate and get AFC Line tuner then 5x12 or 5x14 inj. Marine inj are 155* spray and 145* spray inj is best for second gen pistons.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) A microcosm of my life.....

    The grommet thing is for ind and ag apps that have a different valve cover, they use a grommet instead of an oring that also takes a different bolt. The New Holland Vented valve covers I'm using use grommets.

    Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) Negative Lugs on Engine

    Electrical supply stores have many different size lugs to chose from, I've used some crimp style that had room for a flat washer.

    Forget the fuel plate and get AFC Live from Power Driven Diesel, It makes tuning the engine way easier and allows you to set the tune while driving down the road.
