Just got a divorce, and I need to do something stupid lol! Looking for ideas to make good power from a 7.3 in my 02 F450, it's already a Hoss, I've currently got Rosewood stage 3 injectors and a Hydra with custom tunes on it and a powermax turbo. I've blown through multiple transmissions and...

Hi guys, I'm looking at playing with a turbo that I have been running for awhile, the engine setup is changing drastically and I thought I'd just give my turbos a little boost while I'm deep into things. Not having $3500+ to throw at a turbo right now, and having a full machine shop at my...

I'm building a truck for a customer, a work/tow rig. F350/5.9/Allison. I just got the twins set up and finally started the engine and can't build boost. I've got a S472 (83/1.10) over a S300g with the 12Cm housing. Got it timed at 16 deg, has a Colt Cam, and when I put it in gear I can get maybe...

I'm gear driving a CP3 on an old Detroit 2 stroker, or at least I want to. I'm constrained to a a 2:1 gear ratio with the crank, and my design RPM for the engine is 3750. That means I'm going to be running the CP3 at 7500 RPM. Granade? Anyone spun one until it floated the plungers? Or is that...

I'm tired of running under/oversized turbos. just dang tired of it. So now I hope I have tried enough combos that you guys can throw some numbers out for me based on what I have run! Btw, this is on my stupid little detroit powered toyota... Ran a 351CW over an HX40, hot damn instant spool...

I've been rolling this idea over in my mind for about a week, and am almost ready to roll her into the shop to get started. I have a BHW (2.0 balance shaft engine from a passat) out back with less than 100K on the clock, that had an injector go bad and broke a rod. I'm thinking of using...

Is there a way to **** things up enough with EFI on a 6spd Allison to allow the transmission to go into gear at a higher RPM. I know it may be dangerous for parts, bet can I change the calibration to allow neutral to 1st at 2000 RPM? I'm having a hard time spooling in front of the sled, and at...

Detroit Diesel Toyota Truck Pull, 2013 Dickson - YouTube

Like the title says, I'm just bragging! I feel like its really coming along nicely. Here'a my last pull, just busted a u-joint, so I'm making some driveline mods this week and have one last pull for the season next saturday.:woohoo: Detroit Diesel Toyota Truck Pull, 2013 Dickson - YouTube

Background... early 03 6.0. Truck died and got towed in to me. it was obvious HGs were blown, 1 qt black coolant left and water spots all around the resivoir. I put scan tool on and found FICM voltage was very slow to build, se we did HG, studs, egr delete, oil coooler, and I rebuilt the ficm...

I'm wanting to swap compressor wheels around on a T04e turbo this weekend, but the new wheel I have is a 7.48 bore and the shaft is the standard 6.35mm. It seems I have seen sleeves advertised somewhere to adapt wheels, but can't for the life of me find anything like that now. What I'm trying...

Looking for a good 6 speed allison 2wd transmission. Have money and am ready to deal. Would also like TCM, wire harness and SAE #3 bell for it. PM me, I check it daily.

I have always thought that any impeller type pump would freewheel when the flow was capped and pressure was the greatest, and be under maximum load at maximum flow low pressure. This would suggest to me that a cold side pipe blowing off would NOT overspeed the turbo. I was just reading the other...

Well guys, (and gals!) I never though i'd be here, but I'm breaking stuff... I'm running a 3-53 detroit in a toyota, with twins, and 155mm of fuel. I have the high speed limit on the govorner disabled, but it doesn't like to twist past 3800 without popping and missing, I assume it is valve...

It is my understanding the A/R on the compressor housing makes very minimal difference on a single turbo setup, but I have been thinking that on the secondary in a twin setup, larger could be better, as it would be easlier for the primary to push more air thru the secondary housing? What say...

I just picked up a detroit p/n 23509399 or garret TV8405 turbo. I was told it was a GTA42 for a 12.7, which i think would work just nicly in my twin setup, but this thing is obviously much bigger. Tell me how it compares to a GTA42, and can I get a smaller exhuast housing to make it work? I'm...

I have a Toyota with a Detroit Diesel 3-53T that I have been pulling. I'm running a single T04E with a .68 AR hot side. It is matched perfectly to the engine as it produces just enough boost (around 50 lbs) to burn all the fuel I can throw at it so far. The problem is I'm going to upgrade the...

I am running a pulling truck with a Detroit Diesel in it, and run a single T04E. I am completly happy with it's performance, but I'm worried I'm pushing it too far. Under full power, I can top over 50 lbs of boost, and I just watched a video of my last pull tonight, and noticed a very distictive...
