    Oil feed, stock location vs galley

    Does anyone know if the stock turbo oil feed location at rear of block has less oil volume or pressure then a galley feed? Also wondering if it changes at high rpm's.

    Stock Bore using 4.04 rings

    What are the advantages to putting a 4.04 ring on a standard bore piston that is 4.055. This is on a dedicated puller.

    Little vid of the truck

    It should be going down the track by now but between my family and farm work time has been extremely tight. Also it seems every little thing takes 10 times longer then I think it should. Thanks to all those that helped me get it this far...

    My dads modifed tractor from 1974.

    My mom found this magazine from 1974 about my dad it was a good find. It was quite the tractor in it's day. The announcer use to say the tractor runs on alcohol and so does the driver. No safety rules at all back then.

    Best front locker

    I have an elocker but last year I just ran a welded front diff with a Fleece big shaft. It was a complete pig to try and turn end since I'm going open driveline I need a locker for sure. Just looking for some other ideas. Was thinking about an air locker and I'm guessing they're better but...

    Is P2771 related to your torque converter

    Last pull I got Ecm P2771 and Tcm 2771 It says its "Four wheel Drive circuit Switch low" but after doing some searches I found some people saying there was a problem with the converter locking and it will take so many key cycles to reset the tranny codes. Does clearing the codes clear my TCM...

    Dirty Hooker Diesel

    My truck just wasn't running quite right so I took it to Tony's and he worked his magic along with Mark from Danville. Can't say enough good things about Tony and his crew. Anyone thinking of dealing with either Mark or Tony can rest assured they will be well looked after. Thanks for...

    Some updates to the truck

    Finally got a break from farm work to work on the truck. Put a new w2a box on with my batteries, fuel cell and lift pump under it. New 200 over injectors from All Seasons and had Mark from from Danville work his majic on my big turbo. Hoping to get the tuning figured out pretty soon so I can...

    Tuned a few John Deere's

    I had this guy http://ekotuning.ca/ come and tune 4 tractors for me. He brought a mobile dyno with him and he tuned a 8220, 7820, 7830 and a 7130 for me. All I can say is wow, it's like they are totally different tractors now. He gave the 7130 25 pto hp, the 78's close to 60hp and the 8220...

    Billet wheel vs Machine Screw

    This is what happens when you buy a new turbo and they don't put locktite on the screws that hold the 3.2 reducer in. I was very upset after my first pull to notice this had happened but I ran it the rest of the season and it worked pretty darn good.

    Dual Fueler Belt Routing with Van coolant bridge.

    Thought I'd start a thread since a few people have seemed interested in this. Do you think this routing will work alright? I need to get a longer belt but thought I'd see if this is how others have done it. Sorry for the bad picture.

    Header Warping Problem

    I have 2 sets of RDL headers, 1 is a normal set about 2 years old and the other is a brand new set of Extreme Flow's. Both sets both seem to bow out on the ends. The pics are of the Extreme's and they only have 1 pull on them. Not sure if this is common or not so I thought I'd ask. I havn't...

    LMM Hood Stack

    Got this kit from Mark at Danville. Pretty happy with the way it turned out but I didn't like doing it the least little bit. I'll get some better pics later.

    Crew Cab Sort Box Vs Reg Cab for Pulling

    I found a great deal on a reg cab LBZ and I'd much rather cut it apart then my LMM. For a dedicated puller I'm assuming the shorter wheel base would kill me but I'm really wanting some people's opinions on this. My LMM only has 12k on it and I still have the stock motor sitting on the shelf...
