    Turbo rebuild, replace, upgrade

    I am indeed using stock manifolds. The Banks Stinger system I mentioned is the downpipe and rearward, not the manifolds.

    Turbo rebuild, replace, upgrade

    I found this adapter for this turbo swap. https://rudysdiesel.com/i-30522361-rudys-v-band-holset-hx35-turbo-direct-pipe-adapter-for-gm-6-5l-turbo-diesel.html?q=6.5+holset What other parts will be necessary? Supply hose connector? Drain adapter of some sort? I have a 2-1/2" downpipe I...

    Cub 154 lowbboy.

    When I was little, dad had a cub mower and my uncle put it in gear for me to let me drive it around the yard. I pulled up to the shop to get off when I was done, thinking the clutch pedal I had been riding the whole time was the gas pedal, so naturally, I let off of it when it was time to stop...

    6.5 cylinder head leaking

    Was that the passenger side head?

    My new shop

    if you end up with white ceiling and white walls, you will be surprised how bright it will be. Dad's old shop had black wallboard on both and it was awful. New shop has white all over and 3 rows of lights. We normally only have one row on at a time depending on where we are working. Turn...

    My new shop

    Lights on the wall are fine if it is a paint booth but I can think of no other reason to have them on a wall. There are some in our shop at work and they are blinding half the time. Dad has some in his tool shed and they are blinding half the time. If you think you want them on the wall, I...

    Timing -1.94?

    I'm not doing the timing myself but am having a guy come over to do so. I was trying to remember what the ideal setting was. Mine was at -1.85 and I didn't have any complaints about it. If there is nothing detrimental to the engine then I'm fine with either I suppose. I don't have a factory...

    Timing -1.94?

    Is this the correct timing on my 95 with the DS4? Trying to search on a phone and am having trouble.

    Engine fire wall?

    PTFE is the correct choice in my estimation when replacing factory steel on those and the engine oil cooler lines. The temperature rating and pressure rating make them the best option from my research.

    Engine fire wall?

    Those are nice looking. Are they PTFE?

    Engine fire wall?

    MRB9265 from Kartek. My transmission cooler is bigger than the original. It is from our old '94 Suburban. About the same size as the oil cooler. It swapped in without issue. Swapped bracket between trucks.

    Engine fire wall?

    Check my thread in my signature line. Covered a product in there on mine recently.

    P0131

    In 05 Suburban. Rough idle all of a sudden yesterday. Pulled the code and seems to point to Bank 1 position 1 which should be driver side before catalytic convertor if I am not mistaken. Is that a 2131702 o2 sensor...

    12v key-on power

    This is probably similar on a gasser. I would suppose the only difference is the box instead of the battery?

    '95 Engine build

    Just to round this out, I added an hour meter successfully. Here is the link for that: https://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/threads/12v-key-on-power.51829/

    12v key-on power

    That worked great! Grounded right below on a bolt for the brake module.

    My new shop

    I guess that is quite a span even for steel ceiling. Probably need some intermediate support between trusses.
