I've not been on the site in quite a while, I read some links to things you should check, but really no updates on how you made out on the various things tried other than change a fuel filter and keep it warm in the garage. Did you check the gnds, those could have a "cold junction" where when...

They are wrong and you are right I've got 3:42s in my burb and my results with the "bad gears" for ATT mirror yours, the unbiased tester there.......not so much

I've been MIA from the forum for a while been dealing with some extensive issues at home with wife's health; a little insight on the lack of IC recommendation. I've never said that an IC was not a worthwhile venture I had one for years (I still have it on the shelf) it was required IMO when...

I've been running Balance flow setup for years now, Bill quit selling them because his source to make them became cost prohibitive, plus his "Balanced Flow" setup he sells now with restrictor, retuned clutch- pump & stats keep things cool. I don't think head heat is as bad as some think, with a...

Paul There was a 6.2. Diesel drag racerback in the day had a highly modified mech Ip on it not a Gm one IIRC from a Navstar Diesel I think. Bill has told me before I just don't remember. Strictly drag machine 14:1 CR I think said it took forever to warm up enough to make runs 15 minute pre...

With a walbro pump like Leroy sells there is no need for a bypass, it is self regulating and will only pump as long as there is a fuel demand sort of along same lines of the OEM pump to "pulse/pump" when fuel is required, another benefit of Walbro they are rebuildable if they become worn out...

If it is fresh out the box I imagine it might do that, per OEM manual it is supposed to be 28gph, if doing any HP above stock I highly recommend upgrade to a FTB & Walbro upgrade http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/showthread.php?572-Feed-The-Beast-Part-I-amp-Part-II-Improve-fuel-to-IP, with...

That looks like a add on gnd nothing wrong with more as gnds are problematic with these trucks more info for them see here http://www.thetruckstop.us/forum/showthread.php?14596-6-5-grounds

Factory filter rating is a 5 micron nominal, and plenty IMO for our low pressure fuel systems I run a 10 mic on my promary pre lift filter as those seem to be easisest for me to find at retailers off shelf inventories, 20-30 mic is generally accepted rating for a primary filter.

Heater maybe depends if operating in really cold area often or running a belended "heavy fuel" Vo/WVO that may need thinning when cold, my Racor has the capability for pre-heat if I want to add the kit, water separation IMO is a yes, but that is a function of the filter element itself treated...

Hi Terry long time no see, negative on the Cometic gaskets, according to stuff Bill shared with me on my project engine, great for gassers, but not so well with 6.5s suspect someting to do with higher CR and clamping arrangement of the 6.5s head. But rebuild for sure that truck can't be...

It's not the issue of a 1500 being equipped with a ATT I have (2) a K1500 (S) truck & a C1500 (F) burb with ATT; both have better performance & mpg over stock turbo, 99% of my driving is around town driving, towing is the shining star for the ATT but I have no complaints whatsoever in daily...

Go for it :thumbsup: it looks like you have a good understanding on risks and have been down this road before, so with that give it a shot ATT by paper was not supposed to work either, even Bill not a fan of it but IMO he/it did not get a fair shake out, and much of Bills mind made up by...

X2 to Ferms advise, also don't reuse the old TTY head bolts only new bolts, though some have & gotten away with it, IMO cheap insurance to go with studs and allow for more strength overall.

Was the support brace still there ?

Me personaly I would not give up just yet you know your 6.5, you don't know the Cummins or maybe you do, but if you do you also know they can have issues as well,,,,,,, expensive ones,,,,,, which is easy for me to say not knowing the full situation before you, but if it is a head gasket you are...

Not always about the math how something should work, proof is in pudding over long haul dynamically how it hold up, my setup has been there since 2008. I'm not saying the HX or other turbos won't work and that it is also the cause of the problem or a contributor in this instance; But...

Umm 8 grommets ???? for CDR that is a lot of bad grommets out there ? Now that I think of it I'll check my (2) 98s to see if bad/hardened beyond service life, Maybe if there is a need we could get one of our regular vendors to buy some and stock them +$9 ship & handling is some serious...

Not to digress too much( my apology to the OP for the derail) I'll add this: and if you want to discuss further we can do it in an independent thread in OT. JR you comments are noted, but be that as it may; New folks if we start using the sub forums like rest of the forum worlds do will...

Early on we sort of lumped all in one bag because it didn't matter with low traffic we had here, but traffic is up so we are trying to make the change so electrical goes to electrical, drivetrain to drivetrain etc. we move as makes sense if it isn't a model specific question/issue to where it...
