Yeah! I appologize for any confusion... but I could tell by your post(s) we were on different pages so to speak. But I'm fairly certain now that I'm straight on what I need to do.
For your sake and probably a few others, I'll recap what happened from the start;
1. I started with a...
Ok. If I understand this correctly.... and since I have the HB installed... really what I need to to is remove the '96 vintage MC and put the original '99 MC back in this hot rod.
Of course, same goes for anti-lock brake module... remove '96 vintage and put the '99 back in.
I'm not...
MC = Master Cylinder, HB = Hydro Boost... right?
I presently have the '96 HB and MC and antilock brake module from the 2500 truck installed in project vehicle.
I still have stored away in the basement, the original parts from project vehicle which was a '99 true 1/2 ton 5.7L gaser with...
Good stuff guys! I thought I was crazy, but countryboy69 mixing '95 and '01, yikes! I guess that would be the inverse of theferminater's project? I am pretty sure my next one will get done in Florida and it'll be a 2012 or so????
As for my rig, we got the speed sensor signal issues sorted...
I have a '95 with a/c and 100 amp alternator, vacuum pump delete... 101.5" belt (4061010 or 6PK2565).
If you don't have a/c, I too am curious if you have the dummy idler?
Hi there, back again. Been way too busy this summer. But I did get this vehicle in the hands of a competent gm guy with a tech2. Progress is slow as he has limited time and I've had to get him up to speed on all the history.
Progress thus far...
1. Found the brake pedal swith always...
Hey fella's, I have to confess a bit of "hind-sight is better by a damb sight"!
I installed the ATT back on 7-Feb-10, with the wonderfull orange hose as supplied.
I always had engine oil weeping out of the orange hose (so I thought?).
Sometime in 2011 I talked SlimShady into sending me...
Installed ATT on 7-Feb-10 at 315,961 miles.
Today, 23-Oct-12 turned over 387,000 miles.
That's over 2 years and 8 months with 71,039 miles.
Lovin' every minute of it!!

Here is an update to post #702;
Data Set #3 matured a bit, but didn't change much. Then I installed a set of Kennedy Diesel High Pop High Flow Injectors (mostly for the high pop) and started another set of data, Data Set #4. Kennedy said you will see improvement in the high pop, but if you...
Just to be sure, I was talking about the hose between turbo and upper intake manifold. As supplied with ATT, the orange corrigated hose.
I called "http://www.ssdieselsupply.com" at 716-874-6900, and the fella claimed they have never had anything like that?
Are we talking about a different...
My '95 started sipping coolant at 232k, couldn't see an obvious head gasket leak, so I didn't take any chances on a cracked block and or head(s). Kennedy reman has been running since, 373k - 232k = 141k. All in miles, eh!! The last 57k have been with an ATT. At 232k miles with a fresh $7k...
The English language is a wonderful tool because it is very flexilble, but for the same reason it can be difficult to communicate and easy for same the text to have several different meanings.
Here are my two "sense"... lol....
Who really cares about turbo lag or even turbo boost pressure...
Ok, I'll have to study all the above comments when I get home. We are snowmobiling this week around Island Park, Idaho.
But I did have a chance to quiz a few GM guys and tranny guys that I should share.
1. The passlock is in the ignition switch (wire harness). We had to install this new...
