    Trial run = trials and tribulations

    As of now I have a cheap Mr Gasket pump, a selector valve, up to a fuel screen, to another pump. I'll be adding a 10 and 2 micron filter before the second pump. Ill be trying to put them in the engine bay to avoid laying under the truck in another parking lot.

    Trial run = trials and tribulations

    I've ordered new filters and bases to mount in the engine bay with manual pre and post pressure gauges. I'll have a 10 micron filter, then direct to a 2 micron. I'll still have a post tank fuel pump and a post filters fuel pump plumbed in. My fuel tank selector valves are the type that...

    Trial run = trials and tribulations

    Picking your brains, fuel issue Driver's front fuel injection. return line popped off. Replaced. Did it again a couple times. Both stanadyne racor filters underneath leaked around the gaskets. The clear filter screen downstream from those shows algea, white stuff, black stuff. 2 micron...

    Re filter bases Don't buy the solid aluminum ones unless your never going to run a filter with aluminum threads in it. I put a cat filter on one and it galled. A filter wrench won't turn it. I'm going to have to cut it off.

    The cat filter seized on the bases threads. Apparently it's all aluminum and it's a known issue. Any idea on a base for the cat 0750 filter that is better?

    Trial run = trials and tribulations

    Tried to make it down the road today. Having fuel issues. Diesel leaking past the o ring seals on the racor spin on filter, fuel injection return line on the driver's front leaking, replaced, and then popping off. I bypassed the racor filter and when I cut the line it had pressure and sprayed...

    Another 700r4, plus a turbo addition

    I thought a body lift and raised mother and trans mounts would help a lot where the crossover needs to clear the frame. Oval pipe would do it slick too.

    Switch panel is in. A dptt center off for accessory, from either battery or ignition to my outlets and other switches. Pull for map light LEDs under the switches. Two more dptt co switches I can turn on or from say for the hi beams or rev lights for my light bars. The cooling fans and water...

    CUCV 1986 M1008 - In a Real Pickle - Bad Heads - Need Advice

    Check the mains for cracks. If good, get some 6.5 heads and I'd go arp studs. I don't have a good reason as you don't have a turbo tho. If the bottom end is good, you might consider the Ford pinto head studs in the mains to take some stress off the webs. It's excessive, but...

    Magnetic pickup 4l80 length?

    If I drill through a cast cover (thank you Ken!), how long of a magnetic sensor do I need to reach the flywheel.

    4l80 6.5 flywheel cover and torque rods.

    Pm sent. I'll take bolts, motor mount plates, etc too, if you have them.

    Think I found someone local to do the timing. Looks like upping the fuel and boost is coming. Still tuning the shifting and buttoning up as I look for that flywheel cover and parts. Bought a new isspro pyro boost gauge, haven't tried it yet. Also got a multi tester coming that has millivolt...

    4l80 6.5 flywheel cover and torque rods.

    I don't think the gmparts website likes Android. It kinda works, then doesn't. I'm not adverse to buying new. The cover and brackets would-be great. Mounting hardware too, even better.

    4l80 6.5 flywheel cover and torque rods.

    Yes, your funny... Looking, smelling, a bit odd, the whole funny farm:) Sorry, I couldn't resist either. If I had a shop with a cement floor, some sort of roof, a lift, or something other than mud and grass, I would do it.

    I'm going to be paying to have the rods installed. However many parts I can get is money saved.

    4l80 6.5 flywheel cover and torque rods.

    I'm just going by what I was told. 4x4 4l80e from behind a 6.5 diesel for the cover and rod parts. The t400 cover does not fit and I need the plates that goes behind the motor mounts.

    4l80 6.5 flywheel cover and torque rods.

    I've been told t400 and 4l80 are different. The parts long discontinued, I'm stuck finding used.

    I keep hoping to find one of the 6 bolt hole covers. I hate thinking all the money spent on the transmission is waiting to wasted because of a cracked case.
