    Help with converter choice.

    Thank you. I am planning on a small turbo upgrade down the road but nothing extreme or put the LLY turbo on and go full LLY, easier down the road for tuning options vs the hybrid setup I have now. Get it from the source?

    Help with converter choice.

    2002 Lb7 with a tow tune, tow 12K plus, 28ft toy hauler thru very steep and hilly terrain. Never had an issue with my OE converter but lost 5th gear after 460,000km's, so decided to upgrade, local single disc billet and have the trans built. Last summer, going up a hill, rolled into it and it...

    Piston rings not seating

    Good to hear. FYI, I've tried gaplass rings twice and both times, they didn't work. One in my Turbo Caravan, has massive blowby issues and tried them in my wife's ALH tdi. Burn's oil. Bores done to their specs. :(

    Power differences between the LB7 thru to the L5P.

    Above says LML, 397/765, so you're telling me a tune won't add 100 ft/lbs? Not talking HP, :) Again, are any of the previous platforms capable of 750-800 ft/lbs with just a tune? Like I said, just trying to understand when all the engines are virtually identical.

    Power differences between the LB7 thru to the L5P.

    That doesn't explain the huge power difference. Internally, virtually identical, injectors, all around the same size, all use the CP3 pump except LML, turbo sizes pretty close. My last post said ignore rads, transmissions. :)
