    Lost the motor?

    If your into trying to get rid of extra parts 3,000 isn’t too bad. Wouldn’t hurt to see if he takes less. You could probably have yourself what you need pretty cheap by selling the good parts you don’t need.

    Blue smoke burning oil

    So you say oil is coming out exhaust now? It was not when you changed Turbo? Oil in the intercooler pipe can only come from turbo or PCV.

    Blue smoke burning oil

    Reroute the PCV to atmosphere and see how much oil comes out of it and if your smoke quits.

    Lost the motor?

    Hicksville Auto Recyclers would be a good place to start on the search of a used bottom end. I don’t know if miles would be to much of an issue if your gonna go through it anyway.

    Hot Shot Secret vs Optilube

    Ive had best results with OptiLube so far but haven’t tried hot shot or Exergy. Local shop stocks the OptiLube to that’s what i use.

    Clock spring replacement?

    Start with the above post. If your horn still works and airbag light isn’t on its not the clockspring.

    LMM Glow Plug Control Module

    Yes the module will need to have the right operating system installed along with injector flow rates programmed in to get rid of the light. I am a little confused tho why you say the module is on passenger side as the LMM GPCMs are on driver side rear valve cover beside turbo.

    Squeal on acceleration

    Everything looks fine in them pics besides the loose manifold bolt. That gap your seeing by up-pipe to manifold is normal. Mine looked the same way.

    MAP sensor?? 08 LMM

    If you need a new sensor get a GM one as any aftermarket unit will likely fail shortly.

    Transgo Jr question

    Yep that’s right. Local shop here had a 03 duramax the guy put in the ratio-tek and trans-go kits and was holding 500hp for quit awhile. After numerous burn outs and dirt drag passes it did let go.

    Transgo Jr question

    But i do get the point like for OP he would have to drop trans to do the ratio-tek kit. But i still say its a lot cheaper than a built trans and makes it hold good for just moderate tuning like what the OP seems to be after.

    Transgo Jr question

    Because i had trans out anyway and it’s a whole lot cheaper than building the trans and makes it hold a lot more. Buys time to get money around for the real build.

    Transgo Jr question

    Hey Mike why not tell him to pair the Trans-go with the Ratio-tek kit. That is what i have on my truck and love it. Time will tell how long my trans will last.
