I will take some pics of mine on the bench. I was considering going to the 351vgt but I want to try Somthing
Different. I'm confident I can get it to work. Just gonna be a little harter to fabricate. Having control of boost on the fly with a switch Will be pretty neat.
I might see if I can just buy a 68mm cheeta turbo (for the welding truck) and the controller from them at the same time and ask for a deal. Maybe I will get lucky I donno.
The veins on the LBZ and LMM are smaller. The LLY has the most flow out of them.that's why danville uses LLY chargers as cores.Fleece uses LBZ. the over heating problem is not from that specific turbo. The stock radiator is not big enough for the engine. The MP is to small. The stock air box...

truck sat for about an hour in the shop then i started it. i did an actual cold start today, It starts fine then when i turn the glow plugs off it keps smokin like a bastard untill it warms up. I will try the timing change soon. Its like the truck kinda surges a tad bit when i start it warm for...
The video shows my truck doing a warm start i had just replaced all 8 glow plugs with duraterms. replaced fuel filter, changed oil (5w40 amsoil) and cleaned air filter. I had always thought the smokey start ups were from the crappy used auto lite glow plugs i had in there. But its odvious that...
To get 1000km to a tank I gotta drive it very nice around 80-90 km/h on highway and not go over 2000 rpm in town. I have average oil pressure and no thats not my birthdate. It's January 5th of 1989. I used stock felpro head gaskets
