Gotcha

What ended up being your round trip miles and what was your high and low MPGs?.. If you don't mind sharing..

Total confidence. These old trucks will always find their way back home. ;)

Grab a cheeseburger and a large coffee and keep truckin:D

Lol, copy THAT At the mercy of the stores sketchy diesel tanks.. I hope not, or maybe your upgraded fuel system shruggs it off..;)

Are you carrying a diesel transfer tank? I could see some parts of your journey fuel stops and civilization would probably be few and far between.

Valve job? Check for pitting/erosion on the port side of the exhaust valves. Check for cracks between the In/Ex valves. Guides hold up pretty well but worth a check also. Strait edge the decks check for warpage. Usually they're pretty sound if they lived life on a n/a motor.

There was a YT video posted by @SmithvilleD a long time ago (iirc) of a Powermaster on his rig. It cranked fast. Sounded strong. Would be curious of what kind of service he got out of it.

Headed back north eh?

On my 6.2 big valve heads the tang that locates the pre cups in the head pockets were on the opposite sides compared to my 93 6.5 heads with the T pre cups. I kinda milled the 6.2 n/a cups to my *spec*. And felt great doing so. :)

x3 Look up how to 'bench bleed' a master cylinder. Or maybe you're versed in such activities. But I do thinks you have some air in there.

Other differences could be injector angle and injector body thread pitch. It could affect fitment depending on what lines, manifolds etc you want to run.

I could see where an air bubble would make a pump and it's pressure act strange.

The inline device is a piezoelectric trigger that works with a strobe.. I thought there was a special timing light deal for these at one time. TT1000 maybe? I can't remember.

^^IKR.. Les must have one tuff camera. :D Good to see Simon still among the living.

^^Yep, *Lifetime Warranty* means you'll be changing them out for a lifetime. May as well use Velcro on 'em.

sheet metal circle joining both screws and bend edges up over screw heads. Think camshaft lock plate.;)

Yep, it makes good sense to swap them out entirely rather than beating them up installing new bushings and joints. After all they're just stamped sheet metal from the factory. If I've seen one arm like this in Ohio, I've seen ten hundred:)

To me from just the photo it looks like your bushings are well worn, like pieces squeezing out. Usually it's easier and more cost effective to throw in new upper arms that contain new bushings and ball joints. But if your alignment is holding up, no need yet.

...and you might pencil in a new pair of upper arms..with bushings :)
