I'll have to take some more pics so everyone can see what the guy did to my truck. Thanks again for the help!

How long are you gonna be out in barstow?

I would love to but I have to work tomorrow. I also just noticed an oil leak at the front of the engine....yay!!

Did you happen to see my question about the mph of our trucks

Ok, so I drilled the ball out on the pump shaft. I only turned it about an 1/8th of a turn. I'm still waiting on a guage I ordered so I didn't want to go to far. I also took the air cleaner off and I took it for a spin. Seemed to have a little bit better throttle response. I dial it in a bit...

I just picked up a NT3B turbo for 120 bucks. I might give it a go.

Good to know, thank you

How much do you want per tire?

Yea, I saw that they are only 4ply tires to. Dont have the capacity for a 5ton

Good to know!! Hey have you seen the 450/80r20 tires? I found new old stock with 100percent tread for 50bucks each. Any idea why they are so cheap?

Nice, I'm getting all the stock parts for the intake and exhaust on friday. I think I'll just put her back to stock for now and save some money so and find the A2 intercooler setup and a turbo. Dont really wanna cut a hole in the hood. Should I still monitor the exhaust gas temps when I put it...

Ok, I wasn't sure. Thanks

I I may just go back to stock. I did find a rebuilt T46 for 324.00 bucks on Ebay. I did notice that there isn't a Watergate or blowoff valve. Does this engine require one?

Lol, I'm not sure man. He told me he had it custom built by a turbo company in San Dimas. Said he just threw it on there because he had it laying around. Anyway. Ill just do what we discussed and take it off if I have to. No big deal to me either way.

Just talked to the guy I bought the truck from. He confirmed that it's a 101mm ball bearing turbo. Its was one of 2 turbos he had on his dodge Cummins race motor, so I dont think its gonna work for me. I'll pull the air cleaner off and see how it does but will probably just remove the turbo all...

So maybe I should just do away with the intercooler then.

Apple valley, right next to victorville. 3hrs south of Vegas off the I15.

Yea I dont think its spooling either and with nm nothing coming out of the exhaust, even if you floor it. Def could be a fuel issue with the Air intake issue. I'm gonna have to Fab something because I dont have the stock components.

I've never pushed it but it can easily hit 1100 degrees. I try not to let it go above 1000 degrees.

I will pull the air filter and take her for a ride. I'm not sure what size the turbo is but the guy told me it was over 100mm. Like we were talking about in the previous posts. It seems like I'm not getting enough fuel therefore the turbo may not be boosting. I dont get any smoke at all coming...
