Got it figured out. Thanks

Thanks Will, just gotta figure it out on the phone now. Looks totally different here.

Just where do I find the signature line to fill out?

I'll do that as soon as I find where that is.

I guess my biggest problem is egt's while towing. I could bump up to 1200° really quick even with a 14cm2 turbine housing. I can tell I still have more power available but I have to back off because of the egt's. I have a intercooler planned so maybe that will take care of my problem. I'm...

Now that we have the crankcase ventilation covered does anybody have any hands on experience with running a compound turbo setup on a 6.5?

I'm worried about having to buy an excessive amount of filters for the CCV4500. Seems like that's the biggest complaint I read about them.

I really like this. With the right oil filler neck and the baffle over the timing chain that should work great in our applications. Maybe to old military filler cap would work here.

Here's some good information on CCV methods. Espically thorough on the 4500. http://powerstrokearmy.com/forums/showpost.php?p=43510&postcount=9 This is a single post but the whole thread is pretty good.

I used one of the Tractor Supply sprayer filters filled with stainless steel pot scrubbers for a while. I had it plumbed between the CDR and the K47 filter box. It kept the turbo dry but I had to replace the air filter quite frequently. Wonder if the filter box would be a good place to plumb the...

I'm working on putting together a 2006 Optimizer with 18:1 pistons and hapless rings so blow-by shouldn't be a problem.

I've got a new Racor CCV4500 still in the box. When I can figure out a good way to mount it I'll gladly use it. I had kinda thought about mounting where the factory fuel used to be and letting it drain back through the center mount turbo drain hole. Now after watching the videos that Will posted...

I ran a CDR for a long time and finally decided to try just a road draft. Been running that for about a year and a half and I'm not experiencing any of the negative affects that people talk about.

I'm sure you're right but there would always be that nagging thought in the back of my mind. I've had lots of good luck with Holsets, so I guess I'll stick with them until one of them changes my mind.

I've got an early style Banks turbo manifold and a civilian H1 passenger manifold for the driver's side. Gonna run a short crossover under the balancer. I'm hoping to be able to mount the primary close enough to the orginal position so I can use the exhaust without any modifications.

I've got a pile of those. Probably wouldn't ever have faith in any GM-X though.

Good idea but I'll probably use something like a HX50 or HX55. Much more affordable.

Rode in the mountains today with the 12cm for the first time. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna like it. I'm hoping that this setup will work for my secondary. Now to figure out a primary that will give me more volume and not too much boost.

I've run all kinds of ideas through my head. I have no experience with compounds but it seems like with them sized right it would be very useful. I run a H1C with a H1E compressor housing and wheel. Pretty much the same as a HX35/HX40 hybrid. It has allowed me to swap all kinds of exhaust...

Anybody ever tried compound turbos on a 6.5? Not setup to make high boost but to provide a much more useable rpm range. Maybe something like a HX30 secondary and a HX35/40 primary.
