I logged in to update my diesel conversion thread and it has been closed. Can it be re-opened? Link to thread below. Thanks for any help. 5.9 CR going in a 1984 GMC 1500 - Page 16 - Competition Diesel.Com - Bringing The BEST Together

Anybody ever trim some of the extra casting out of one of these? Seems excessive, and extra heavy. I was thinking of leaving the tubes tied together at the head mount surface, but cutting out the majority of that webbing in between runners. Curious if anyone had tried this. Sent from my...

I'm pulling my head to do studs. While it's off I'm gonna get it surfaced and a valve job. I just ordered some parts to bring the power up by a lot. I've been warned a few times about 2003 valve seats dropping out and wrecking the engine. Should I have the seats staked? Is there a better fix? I...

I've had a DPC Reman in my beater for about a year now. No issues. Took it to the track a couple weeks ago and it is super tight. My little 1/2 ton wilwood brakes just won't hold it. Called and talked to Phil, he's gonna restall it (for a very reasonable fee). Can't wait to get it to him and...

Need some ARP 625 Head Studs for my 2003 5.9 24V On a budget, figured I'd look for good used ones first. Thanks.

It's an 84 gmc 1500 with a commonrail 5.9. Street/strip use. Right now just efi live tune. Future plans are for 700hp. The guy at my local driveshaft shop wants me to go 5" aluminum. I am gonna have hell fitting that. I was really thinking a 3.5" steel would be fine, but wanted to see what y'all...

That's really cool. I drilled and tapped the filter housing for 1/2" npt so I could put a -8 fuel line adapter in it.

Worked on the cage some more.

Got my harness and ecm in. Not much to look at, but here's a pic anyway.

Started extending the dash with some 4" exhaust pipe.

Didn't know that was possible. I've already committed to manual vb and standalone harness. I like the manual for this truck. On to some progress pics.

I'm in the process of a very slow swap and I'm trying to find some info. I have been planning to use the factory 2003 dodge harness, ecm, and modules to make all this work, but seems I'm hitting a roadblock. I am new to this swap, and really don't know much about the wiring. Can anyone tell me...

Anyone building these? Figured I'd check before I start on mine. I'd rather buy one, than trial and error.

Anyone running a PATC triple disc? I have a friend who swears by them, but he is using them for gas burner trans parts.

OK so I have a 2003 Dodge dually 2wd auto. Frame is bent in the rear pretty bad. So I have decided to pull the engine, trans, wiring and computers and sell the rest. I also have an '84 GMC 1500 rcsb. It's already 4 linked, coilovers, moser 9" with 35 splines, locker, and 3.89 gears. Had a...

Hey guys. Lurked here for a while, figured I'd sign up. I had a 2003 ram 3500 until my wife hit a tree at 35 with it. Luckily it was in the back, but the insurance still totaled it. I bought it back and will be swapping the motor and trans into my 1984 GMC rcsb prostreet. To replace the Dodge I...
