Have you used their radiators?

Yea put their cooler and radiator in a 379 for a guy and he ran it a few months and hit a deer and ran an antler right through both. Worked really well right up to that point. Lol
Been getting radiators from https://radiatorsupplyhouse.com. VERY well made but not cheap but you get what you pay for.

Puts 630 miles down Monday, dropped 62g of fuel back into the tanks.. for 10.1 mpg with boost leak for better part of 500 miles...
Only come up with too conclusion.. truck so doing better than 10mpg
Or
Boost leak was enough to blead off enough air to keep from choking the turnine wheel up and result in increase in MPG..
New CAC is on... Air compressor elbow is on.. new injector return lines on.. quick bobtail test drive.. boost hits 35# now definetly scoots better.. head to Charlotte NC tonight with a load..

Boost leaks do not increase flow through the turbine.

Boost leaks mean you lose your 10 second car to VinDiesel.

Correct... What I was referring to.. is my opinion that the current turbine where is too small and choking the engine... A boost leak would reduce the air flow through the Engine thus unchoking the turbine wheel allowing the Engine to operate more efficiently.... As a possibility of why I saw almost 2mpg increase over normal MPG...

Could be too that the afc just wasn't fueling as much with the missing boost.

I think it’s the turbo causing mileage issues. I don’t care for the heat myself.

Well either I cracked something or blew some gaskets.. got some oil leak at the front of the Engine...
The air compressor adapter is clean and it got glued on with rtv adhesive...
So What tools do i need, to pull everything from the block forward off, to reseal it.. mainly the bull/cam gear/harmonic balancer
I'm guessing I'm got to have to drop the oil pan as well looks like the front bolts, bolt into timing gear cover..

Shouldn't have to drop the pan, just use some rtv. I've used wooden Dowells in the tappets to pull them up and hold them there to remove the cam if pulling the gear doesn't sound fun to you. The rest is straight forward.

Well warm enough to play outside in the water.. pressure washed everything.. oil leak is coming from around #2 main.. idk about the B series... the 8.3 have a 1/8" NPT boss on each main.. oil is coming from #2 main area... So either plug is leaking or the inboard side of the PS pump to AC pump adapter is cracked...
When I got the Engine the timing cover to AC pump was broke and the rear brace was not bolted on... and the adpater could be collateral damage...

I've seen those adapters break a couple times, nothing super common though.

I'm sure not having the rear brace bolted up and it beating against the block wasn't exactly healthy for it
