07 5.9 truck with a 6.7 swap. Running 5.9 electronics.
Just had the engine completely rebuilt. 20 over pistons, Hamilton Street cam, Hamilton springs. Rotating assy balanced, all new valves etc. Glacier Diesel intake, grid heater delete, ARP 625's. 3500 miles on it.
Brand new Bosch injectors, just got them back from Industrial today after being punched out to 200hp.
48re new, triple converter Goerned VB.
62/65/14 over a S475, I realize this is a bit small for a 6.7 but for the towing I do I believe its perfect. No racing just pulling a 20 car hauler around the county.
Not the stock intercooler either, all the boots are new clamps and all.
EFI Live, Anarchy tune. (tuning in process)
I've not had the chance to drive it much the last week or so Phil has not been able to get any info from me for tuning.
The issue; before the injectors though it ran really smooth if I was loaded and I pushed the skinny peddle I would not see more then 40 psi. Saw 43 once unloaded up a small hill.
EGT's will hit 1700deg if I stay in it.
Now with the injectors in there (unloaded) and I roll into it after the converter locks it will hi 40 fast then stops, lots of smoke at first, it will clean up bt not enough.
Yes I'm using analog gauges.
Drive pressure it about 65 psi at 40 boost when I'm on it.
Now my first reaction was a boost leak, double checked EVERY connection.
Nothing.
Power wise, I rode in a 06 5.9 truck with a 64 over a 480 and it was night and day difference. I mean if you drive that truck then drive mine you would think mine was stock.
What should I be looking for here? I just feel lost at this point. :nail:
Another bit of info. Before the build I was running a silver 66 and boost was the same at 40 psi.
EDIT*** Rail pressure (after injectors) on the Race tune will drop to 12k then recover. Street tune it holds at 20k.
