    Tow tune

    x2 Although if you already have a tow tune there are instructions on tuning in a turbo brake on this or other forums. Not sure where but I know I saw one.

    Gauges

    I have been thinking of using the old 6.5 sender, I do remember speaking with you through pm about it, I just wanted to make sure that I had the whole range covered. I know my 6.5 used to peg the gauge at 80 on some nights and so does our 01. I figure I will set up the old sender, just wanted...

    Gauges

    I know this question has been asked many many times, but here goes again. I'm putting gauges in my truck. I'm going with the standard Boost and EGT, I have to add oil pressure since I'm swapping the motor into my 97, using the old cluster. I'm not sure whether to use a 0-100 or 0-150 psi...

    duramax or cummins

    I got an 03 chevy for $4350 delivered, it was a rollover truck with 118k on it. When I was looking the prices ranged from 4k to 8k depending on the condition and the milage. I believe that I got a really good deal on my donor though, found it locally on craigslist. If you want I can send you...

    dmax in a 97

    I was hopin to drop an lbz in it; but your posts about the motor being fit to the existing systems makes sense. I don't mind doing the body lift if it gives me some extra clearance, i already have 6in of suspension lift. It seems like after you got your build going you really enjoyed it and I...

    dmax in a 97

    I'm wondering what everyones opinions are on this? I can get a motor and the electronics easy enough, just need to find one that was wrecked and buy the whole rig. I should be able to sell the allison to buy a zf6. my truck is a regular cab, so i would prolly need a new driveshaft. Do all of...

    Momentary jerk/miss/shudder at highway speed

    I had the same problem under, except mine happened in 4th gear under hard acceleration. I still to this day do not know what caused it, however it did not show the ses light, but it stored codes PO236 and PO238 which are for boost. The ecm was reading to much boost and cut vacuum or fuel for...

    Van vs Truck 6.5

    thats what i thought, and therein lies the issue. I want to redo the heads when I rebuild the motor, so i guess ill need to find another setup

    Van vs Truck 6.5

    Hey guys, as some of you know I'm in the market for a rebuild or a crate motor right now. I may have found a cheap replacement until I find the money to buy or rebuild to exactly what I want. I found a guy that has a 99' van motor, it was running, but they parted the van out. I know the turbo...

    Rebuild Ideas?

    Hey 6.2, I'm trying to get a motor from a friend of a friend. It would be a replacement untill I have enough money to rebuild or buy the motor I want. If this is the case I would have an extra electronic pump. If your still interested, I'll keep you posted

    Rebuild Ideas?

    no change in running, the oil does not smell like diesel, thats why im going to have it tested. I was having a problem with the truck defueling due to over boost. Made a mechanical wastegate actuator to solve this problem. I run 5-8 psi highway with a peak around 13 psi. In my opinion the two...

    Rebuild Ideas?

    Hey guys, I'm new on this forum. I noticed the other day my truck had low oil pressure. Hooked up an oil pressure gauge and at idle I had no pressure at all. Oil appears to be thin, I'm going to have it tested as soon as I can get the oil changed. The oil isnt grayed so I assume that...
