    Max boost for att

    Just wondering what other's results are. I still haven't got a retune so I'm running a gl4 designed for the gm-4. I was coming back from town last night and gave her a slow roll in to 85-90mph and the boost creeped over 22 psi. So I tried to recreate it with the camera out and the boost actually...

    Well install is done

    Sweet. Make a vid man. How was the install? I looked into this a while ago to do to mine, but could never get myself to part with the cash for a good snow one. I'm sure you will thank yourself later if you've ever gotta go inside it though. 25psi with no headstuds? You may be checking out those...

    Gauges reading wrong

    So i'm actually just getting around to checking out my fuel gauge. After about an hour crawling around under my truck with a maglite, I can't find the fsu ground. I found the static ground on the filler but other than that it doesn't look like i have any stray wires going to or from my frame...

    Didn't this thread take an interesting turn... What do you have to do to the 6.9 or 7.3 idi to make them withstand 4-500hp? These are all mechanical pumps you are speaking of right? Just DB's no DS's right?

    Merlin SHO IP

    Lol you're probably right but when I do drop that much cash I'll probably go ahead and get some 40% overs and a bigger turbo so it won't hurt my feelins too terribly bad. It makes me feel like I'm runnin kerosene or somethin I can't believe I'm burning the same fuel as I was in the 6.5 lol I do...

    Well guys, looks like I won't be buying much more for my truck except rockwell's and some tractor tires lol I lucked across a 06 lly/lbz sclb 4x4, grandpa driven, 183k hwy miles. This guy that owned it worked in Oklahoma for 20+ years and recently passed away. 6 months later his wife did too and...

    Awesome! I've got a few more mods to do to mine before I get it. (and i gotta sweet talk my ol lady into believing my truck needs this stuff lmao) I want a QSV, water/meth, few other little things. Just looking around on Heath's site again, seems he's added a stage 4 Towing kit, WITH AN W2A...

    upgrading

    I have an ATT. The install was pretty easy, it came with all the necessary parts except some hose and clamps for the return, but I had those laying around anyways. I can say that the more I drive it, the more "broken in" it seems to get. Its starting to whistle louder. The exhaust sounds really...

    Now you're talkin my language! I used to have some 33's on my truck, it was just about unstoppable (except one time... I hit some skidder ruts that were disguised by water... passenger side of the cab's floorboard filled up with water lol) 4low would pull the Empire State Building off its...

    Merlin SHO IP

    Exactly. I would love to ditch the computer stuff, my pmd/electrical system has given me problems from day one. So far I've replaced the alternator and both batteries, and the pmd extension. And now the short pmd cable is fried. I keep melting pins, can't figure out why. It's like there's too...

    HX35 video

    Nice dude, that definitely looks like wyoming. So you like the hx35? Planning on keeping it or is the ATT TDV the best for you? I'm really diggin my ATT at the moment. Looking into getting a Super84 though.:reddevil:

    New injectors

    well I pulled a set off of mine after 25,000mi due to leaking overnight and gobs of white smoke even with brand new glows. They are an off-brand, they aren't Bosch, ac delco, which is what is usually recommended. I've got a set of rebuilt Bosch with marine nozzles and I could definitely tell a...

    Thanks for the insight GW. I'm new to 6.5's, always drove a chevy though, just a gas engine one. Let's just say I'm testing the waters... Honestly I really don't care if I blow the bottom end out of this engine, a hummer take-out is just a phone call away, and cheap as hell at that. This is...

    Merlin SHO IP

    I totally missed the part about flywheel hp. That's crazy though, I wouldn't think even the most modded 6.5 could make as much power as a stock LML, and the fact that I may be ATLEAST halfway there is cool as hell. I will definitely be looking into the cam, in the near future. I'm running out of...

    Yea i agree on the numbers.. Heath has always kinda "ricer style" combined #'s anyways. I haven't really heard good things about the cam, but I haven't heard bad things either. Can you elaborate on what's missing from the cam department, or if the heath cam does the job? I also didn't know you...

    Just looking around at heathdiesel.com, and came across the stage 3 performance kit. It mentions a "Merlin SHO Injection Pump" and he says for $6580 you can have 415hp/750ft lbs. Stage 3 Kit Well that got me wondering about these Merlin IP's, I came across merlindiesel.com, Not sure if even...

    borg warner 4401 T-case

    I believe fluid capacity for the transfer case is along the lines of a differential, being you just add fluid until you can stick your pinky in the fill hole and feel fluid. That's the way i've always done it anyways.
