Yeah, we saw the black 818.....or whatever M it was

Does it need the generator? If it does, it would probably better to use a modern generator, they are quieter, easier to get parts for and make better power for electronics.

Your post seemed as though you bypassed the pump, no biggie. The only way to measure the cranking flow is on a pump stand. A trick to try and force feed rail pressure is to pinch/plug off the return line going back to the tank, do this as close to the engine as possible. It should make some...

^^ That is incorrect. A PT system has no pressure at idle, only a spike on acceleration. There will only be flow, measurable with a flow meter in lbs per hour. Rail pressure only happens when loaded. No cracking lines needed, it is self priming. PT screen filter is only there IF a pump failure...

Mine WAS a Jeep! I do kinda miss the pig:driver:

Two Jeep trips, one the weekend before, one the week after, looks like I am a no show.....again

They are BIG and slow. Check into the price of tires. Ever seen one in person? Come south to the Museum and have a look.

Easy with the starting smelling salts, it likes to loosen carbon and stick rings.

Man, I was about to crack a beer in celebration of forward progress, Dammmm, no beer for me tonite!

OBC method is quicker. They need to make sure they have the correct injectors for the CPL, remember different lobe lifts. Non TS injectors and OBC don't care what the lift is, but a short top stop and a cam profile greater than the top stop will cause damage IBC or OBC. They NEED to make certain...

See post 8. You can also adjust by OBC method. The procedure for checking the Acc. dr. timing it there too. https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?73256-Nhc250-valve-injector-overhead-adjusting

Didn't answer your Q's, sorry. Cracked cups can fracture into small pie piece shaped parts that can come out of the retainer, only seen that a couple of times, so that's why I mentioned it. Yes it causes cylinder and head damage. The most common thing that happens is the bending of push tubes...

Another "thing" small cam, non top stop engines were known for for dillution was a failed cam lobe. A little history..... The reason TS injectors came about was to relieve the pressure on the cam lobe from the non top stop injector spring pressure always riding on the lobe with force. The top...

6 in lb is the "normal" top stop injector setting for IBC setting. IF it was set at 16 in lb using the inner base method, injector 3, valve 5, inj 6, v, 3, etc, the stroke of the injector was shortened by the amount the 16 inch lb torque took up, the top stop was not in play, injector spring...

Yeah, Mil Spec gauges are less than optimal.

Have you guys been re huck bolting them?

Use grease to hold the gaskets in the groove, DO NOT over tighten the cans, you will cut the gasket.

Rusty, does your truck have power steering?

Can't wait to see the finished product. On a side note, frame flanges shouldn't be drilled. The flange is the strong point. You should glove the frame if you intend to put weight in it.

Have you been just starting and letting it idle/short hop to the beer store? Take it out and run it on the highway.
