not saying you couldn't build a multi up, but you can buy a bus w/ a 6bta in it for less than $2k. transmission will be too long, but you'll already have the correct flywheel cover adapter, air compressor, intercooler, and even motor mounts that won't need a lot to get it to adapt. could you...

what sensors? my 12v cummins will run on all that just fine - it's all mechanical. ;-) well, yeah - but hmmwv's suck.... :grin: (just giving you a hard time) i'm really not trying to argue anything against the deuce or multi's. in fact, it's been highlighted a few times already that the...

Boost does not create high EGT's.

the motor already uses studs. and with 22:1 compression ratio, the mains, rods, heads, and even block itself can't take much more strain than it's already under. the multi is a far cry from "under-rated" as the cummins is.

yes. i start drilling w/ the engine off. then, before i break thru, i start the engine and continue drilling - as soon as you penetrate the manifold, the exhaust will blow all the shavings into your face. then, i shut the truck off to start the tap - engine vibrations make it difficult to get...

So, i was finally able to get my hands on an guage and get it installed so i could turn up the fuel. :driver: so, doing some shopping i was able to find the R609-10 and R7603 thru my local diesel shop for $246 - i thought that price beat the pants off any other price i've found. anyway, the...

why? my cummins will run up to 4k rpm. i generally won't need much more than 3300, but it's there if i need. the only real problem starts at about 4200 rpm - harmonic vibration. you need a fluid damper and balanced bottom to run past it. then you're good to go on up to 5k....... if you got...

i think scrapman is right on the money, here. i would think that custom pistons and rods would be the way to go - lower the compression down to 16-17:1 w/ some custom H-beam rods that will allow some rpm. turbos are easy. injector tips could be EDM'd if you start lacking fuel. 5T injector...

i don't understand the question - what size tires, stock size? if the stock tires were used, i would most definitely think that the acceleration would have increased, probably substantially. probably not a real gain in top end, however, since you'll still be limited by rpm. between what was...

limiting straps are cheap. maybe even cheaper than shocks.

no. a turbo would not last long if this where the case, nor would it even perform well, if at all. it would likely fly apart way before that. the whistle is produced as a by-product of the exducer design. typically, the fewer the vanes, the more prone to whistle a turbo has. example: ford...

found a decent drawing of the fuel rod and stop plate assy (originally posted by OPCOM) as well as a snipet from a TM that shows the droop screw in the drawing (originally posted by doghead).

far as i can tell (thru some fruitless searching on this site thru threads that say they won't answer the question because it's already been answered) there is just the fuel plate stop: 2 half inch nuts on a threaded rod. loosen the outer [locking] nut, then tighten the inner nut - this pulls...

i don't think it's simple as that. i just looked at the tag on my trans yesterday: 3053 w/ a shift pattern of r 2 5 1 3 4 i'm pretty sure it's the 3052 that had the shift pattern of r 2 4 1 3 5 3053's and A's and B's are all OD trans, just w/ different ratio combos as outlined here...

I disagree w/ doghead on that most guages I have seen and installed required 12V power to run them and not just for illumination - all of my ISSPRO and Diprocol guages are this way. In other threads the ISSPRO Turbocator (combo guage: boost and egt) is mentioned and seems like a real good...

update?? :popcorn:

yes. custom built 6" lift springs up front and 6" blocks w/ traction bars in rear.

nope, you'd be fine. but, you'll need to orient the diff assy so that front is still front - not for rotation purposes, but for keeping the ring/pinion gears and bearings alive. more than likely, you'll rotate the steer axle housing backwards and want to rotate the chunk 180° anyway to get...

yes, psc has a kit for front, rear, or front and rear. but, as i said before, you'll want a separate system for the rear so that the rear does not rob pressure from the front system. as for hydro tandems, basically it is not possible [practically] to control simply thru hydraulics. it'll...

got the PSC kit on the front of my truck - i love it!! [thumbzup] i am actually contemplating this same thing (rear steer) since i now have the truck and some spare steer axles. because of how well the turning radius currently is, i'm not really all that sure that it would be that large of an...
