    help 85 k10 6.2 with a wh1c turbo

    10-12 psi is pushing. max recomended is about 8 psi. once you hit 4 psi you'll notice a big difference.:D make sure you have the guages(EGT,Boost) to back it up. the pump will need to be turned up 1'/8-1/4 turn depending on how hot you want to push it. keep the EGT's below 1100F or pistons...

    fuel manger questions

    OK here's the deal. my square filter need to be fixed(leak) and I have the 6.5 setup. Is there a tee for the drain line or just straight hose? what size are the mounting bolts? is there a thread on how to bleed this setup(never had to deal with it before)?

    something as simple as a weeping line will add up to a leak. check real close around the front crossmember. lots of crap gets piled in there(snow/salt,mud). the hangers(where it bolted to the frame is another bad spot.

    6.2 with v-belts in place of 6.5 ?

    the 6.2 and 6.5 are about he same in size and weight. the late 6.2s even share the same block. as AK said make sure you get all the accessories with it. the WP runs backwards compared to the serpentine setup. the other option if it doesn't come with everything is to run a 6.2 with the...

    need help identifying a battery charger.

    I can't find a model number on it. I know it's around to 20 years mark(type of wire used). it's rate at 12/50A or 6V 135A. it's 120V input. it has a load tester built in. if anybody has info for me that would be great, a manual would be even better:D here's a couple of pics.
