    Power Steering Noise

    I got a call from gm they're giving me a new pump. They said its because the metal the pump is made of as well as the brackets is weak. So everyone should call gm and find out if its been changed. I'm the second owner so they had no way to get in touch with me. It was a coincidence I called gm...

    My New (To me) Hummer take out, courtesy of Ted's Trucks 'n Stuff.

    Well I was thinking of doing a re power. I have a 2000 k3500. My truck is running good, no overheating no loss of power. But after I installed my ATT I noticed blowby coming from the cdr. My block is supposed to be problem free in regards to cracks overheating and such. I just think for 2800...

    My New (To me) Hummer take out, courtesy of Ted's Trucks 'n Stuff.

    Just a question you say you have 2050.00 on the motor with lines? Did you make a deal? I know this is a two year old post. The price is on his site for 2800-. Just kicking the idea around about buying a Teds engine, albeit the block and cooling system in my truck is supposed to be the best...

    AM General/GEP' New 6.5 6500 Optimizer

    I just got off the phone with a company that sells these am general engines. No intake, no ip, no injectors. You get the engine with heads that's it. But they want $5800 delivered. No core. My 6.5 is still running very well. It's a 2000 so from what I've been told it could run to 250-300...

    Fuel leak metal to rubber line

    Forgot how to start a new thread. Not sure when this started but when I'm in park and bring the tach up to 2500 as it falls it starts to break up. I noticed a fuel leak where the metal line meets the rubber line. Former owner already cut the return and hose clamped it together. Also since the...

    New member turbo confusion

    Strange that was going to be my next post. Ever since the ATT the filter has been getting noticeply dirtier. I have the box that hooks to the fender well and has duct work running to the front.

    gauges for 6.5 turbo diesel???

    My dash temp gauge isn't working. I changed the sending unit at the crossover housing still nothing. Somewhere there's a problem. Can I just run an aftermarket gauge and wire it to the factory sender?

    New member turbo confusion

    I haven't seen any blowby coming from the dipstick or from the filler tube. It's puffing just from the cdr. As I said I've felt no power loss. But going back to what was told to me by the manufacturer, the emissions being removed, more air being pumped into the engine seems, in theory, to be an...

    New member turbo confusion

    Just an update and question. I have the ATT on as well as the 4inch exsaust. Before the mods 6.5 had no blowby. Now I noticed its pushing a lot. The CDR is junk for sure. I decided not to re-burn the vapors and for now I just rotated the cdr pipe upwards so oil can't escape. I've seen excellent...

    Copper spray on head gaskets?

    The mechanic who worked for us used Coppercoat everytime he installed heads. He used it on heavy equipment and heavy trucks. It was explained to me that its for severe duty applications. If I were doing the heads I'd use it.

    ATT run vs. HX40II

    Ok so I'm getting mixed reviews about running an intercooler with my ATT. But ill ask again, what about water/methanol injection? Getting off the subject a bit, the compressor side of my turbo and the coupler to the intake are really cold. How does the ATT pull that off? I've been around trucks...

    Those that run a Devils Own WMI system

    Regarding wmi, is the Snow set up the way to go? Is it worth the money? Was considering an intercooler but after reading around hear seems wmi is more popular.

    ATT run vs. HX40II

    I was just looking at water to air intercoolers, I think this type will be worth the time and money.

    ATT run vs. HX40II

    Ok so an intercooler is always good. Can I fab one up with the same effectiveness as the one sold for $1800.00? I think I could do it for a fraction of that with all the generic stuff available. What makes those 1800 intercoolers worth it?

    ATT run vs. HX40II

    I was thinking of installing an intercooler. It seems most people who have an ATT remove there intercoolers. Anyone have advice? The manufacturer says I don't need it?

    ATT run vs. HX40II

    Yes, now that I see that sentence it does make me laugh!! My girl sleeps on my left the turbo was sitting on a table to my right, when we "get it on" I'd look over at my turbo. So I don't know what was making me excited, maybe both??? All kidding aside the turbo is breaking in nicely have to say...

    ATT run vs. HX40II

    Just installed my ATT on Friday. It sat next to my bed all winter so was more than excited to get it on. I have to say it meets all the hype and worth what I paid. Also installed that stove pipe diamond eye sells, a little loud for my taste. I use my truck for hauling heavy steel. Can't wait to...
