When it warms up its baby smooth?
What is the compression ratio with those monotherms installed?
Seems weird man a broken ring or tweaked rod doesn't usually go away with higher temps.
None the less good luck. I don't know WTF to say ....
Oh.... and... your not running the fracture split rods with those heavy assed pistons are you?
Yes, it runs very smooth when warm with the exception of a slight stumble just off idle or right off no boost...When boost comes on it seem to pur like it always did.. Very weird..
The monotherms were made to be in the 16.5:1 range according to Eric with Mahle...But I also used the slightly thicker ( two hole ) HG with this build due to being paranoid about valve clearance with this Fletcher DP3 cam..
I was thinking the same thing about the ring / rod senario... If it wasn't for the using oil and having more blow by than we'd like, I dang sure wouldn't be rushing to pull the motor...
BTW, I put those new cross tubes in and that crank case filter on top of the VC... None made a difference... I would say money wasted but at least I can rule those out too!
NO Sir in the CR rods...These are polished, lightened, balanced, & radiused VP Rods...
I hear that they are coming it with new software so thet when your commonrail engine melts down, you just push the reset button and everything goes back to the way it was before the meltdown.
LOL
That was funny!!
But I DO like the idea!! A Mulligan Switch if you will....lol
I was trying to be polite Saturday night on the phone, but now I can tell you what you need to hear. Finish the damn thing!:lolly:Tear it down , and fix it. I hate that it happened, but the longer you sit around worrying about it, the less work gets done on it. If you must sell it though, DIBS ON THE VALVE COVER.
Hopefully this will inspire you, and you will get it going soon. If I can help, let me know
LOL
I know man! Quit my *****in and get to work, hun??
Okay, you got the VC and Unbroken has the Monotherms if I decide to pull the plug.... lol
i want the exhaust....i need one bad:lolly:
Prob. keep the exhaust Brah!! I'm not going back to stock That Far!! lol
No offense but I have zero dibs on any part that has been installed touched or been within a 25 mile radius of that truck.
^^^^ This is the Smart guy here!! LOL
I wouldn't blame ya man...!
Trust me though...It's not the truck, the parts, the work, or whatever.. It's just ME man!! My freakin luck!!
I was put here to entertain you folks with stories of carnage and dispear....How am I doin folks???? lol
