Hey all,
Figured I'd ask some of yall here. My latest build includes a cherry 97 f-350, obs 4x4 cclb truck. As this is version 2.0 I decided to do the dreaded vp44 5.9 as I basically got a donor truck for free. Truck runs relatively well, but experiencing a few little issues.
Mods engine wise are:
Fire-ringed head, springs, tappets, push rods, ARP everywhere, stock rods, treated pistons, etc. stock cam,
Billet wheel 64mm charger
fluid dampr
3 piece manifold
.093 stainless lines (just added )
Scheid race pump vp44
oversized push tubes
Trans - ant eater , billet 48re by my buddy Jessie Harris
Tunes: Quadzilla, custom by 1badvp44 (TJ Frey)
Fuel system: Big a1000, regulated return at 15psi.
The problem I'm experiencing is air, and or turbo surge on the race tune. The truck died once on a WOT run. Can get started after bleeding lines. I'm fairly certain that it is the .093 lines causing the issue, but seeing if there was a "fix" before going back to stock lines. Just want a good running street truck. Heres a goofy link to truck before I did a bunch of extra work and cleaning it up for my nephew. Thnx in advance for your help! -JJ
