So far so good i've only drove it bout five miles my drain tube is leaking really bad so i'm gonna work on that tommorrow. I didnt go real hard on it I think the most boost I saw was 5 pounds. REALLY loud lol rite now I jus have a 4 inch straight pipe...
lol kinda sounds like a stupid question now but I understand them now. They are fun tho me and my friend were driving there farms semi around at midnight one night throwin the jake brake on past every house lol
Anyone ever put a jake brake on a 6.5. I dont really know much about them but i'm sure some one on here could explain how one works. But they do sound cool :smile5:
The most important thing to do if you are going to switch to an hx-35 is to do the little things to so your engine will safely handle the boost. Such as an intercooler, a good cleaning of the radiator, and maybe some arp headstuds or a rebuild to lower compression. If not you run the risk of...
more progress on the truck. All I got left is the crossover pipe, exhaust and fuel line fitting is being made for the ip for feed the best mod. Should have her goin by the weekend!!! gonna be a lil loud at first lol rite now all I got is the down pipe on so i'm jus gonna run a piece of 4 inch...

Alright it kinda scared me for a min i'll try it tommorrow i''m in no hurry my arp moly lube is in the mail anyways so no rush. Also john deere hasn't called yet with my feed the beast fitting lol i'm tryin to get them to get a hydraulic fitting for the ip for a 3/8 inch line.
Anyone know the torque specs for arp head studs? The paper I got with them when I bought them got lost. Also what kinda silicone do I need to use to seal them in the block?
Lol nice! I unwrapped my A team this morning!!! I gotta pick up my heads tommorrow and get a passenger side manifold then I can start the reassembly. Wut size flange do I need to buy to connect the exhaust?
Not bad lol we left the grill and quarter panels on when I pulled mine it was dangling pretty high in the air but it slid right out. You oughta do the feed the beast and get an A team turbo on it while you got easy access to the motor.
