    Duramax block strength

    Blocks I split cylinder walls at 1000 hp on my first motor in the white truck. I then hard blocked it had 8 sleeves put in and no more problems with that block. All the others have been good with a half fill on the blocks. All with stock caps and no girdle. I'm not a believer they help much...

    New injectors new build = Misfire#8

    Cyl 8 I'm thinking its a valve problem or lash. A plus number means that cyl is down on power and the computer is trying to make it up with fuel. If your sure the lash is good I'm think a valve not sealed or bent.

    NEED LMM shortblock

    motor If you shut it down as soon as it happened you might get luck and just put a piston in it. If you keep driving it you need a motor. Sorry that it happened. I just got back from a test drive on a LBZ with 445k of the hardest miles you could expect and it still runs like new. Crazy how...

    Injector Spray Pattern - LMM

    EGT's I think that is the problem with 6 speed trucks. I never tow in 6th and when pulling big hills don't be afraid to shift down and run a little rpm's. Just because the motor has enough power to pull a taller gear doesn't mean it should be doing it. Ken passed you just as you crossed the...

    $4000 machine shop bill!!

    Not bad At first I thought it was high until I read the bill. With assembly and all its more than fair. I also agree most "Shops" are just bolt on and go. I would rather have a shop do that than act like they know what they are doing and mess it up.

    Anyone tried no intercooler on Duramax?

    No IC Yep I'm different than most. I just wanted to win. lol Basic is simple and simple is basic! Like you said way less problems. Some guys just try to hard to reinvent the wheel. With your power turned back I bet you will be fine.

    Anyone tried no intercooler on Duramax?

    No IC I run my dragster with no IC and didn't have any problems. I run a hand full of passes with no nitrous also. In a max effort deal you will be down a little power but in my deal I didn't care. I just wanted simple and basic. In 4 years racing the Dragster I never hurt a motor and only 1...

    Core returns

    How long does it normally take to get your core return money back? I have sent a couple converters and a apply plate back a couple of months ago.

    Kicker!!! Just for the record the truck I had towed in from another shop just got finished. They put in a new mass air meter (that was the code) and told the gentleman they didn't know what was wrong with it. It had the most plugged up air filter known to man!! The top side looked good but WOW...
