Turbo Decision

Posted

So I found out my 2001's turbo is full of oil and not very happy so here's two options:

 

I have a replacement hx35 to throw on 

 

Or

 

A Smeding 62/64/14 I can throw on it.

 

Truck has 100hp sticks, a Quadzilla, Airdog 150.

 

What would your guy's recommendation be?

    For 7 x .009's i wouldnt do a 62 id do that 57 dap has been talking about.     To really use the 62 you will have to run a lot of wiretap with the 7x.009's.

Do you want to stay with the 7 x .009's or do you see yourself stepping up to 7 x .010's

    I ended up throwing on the hx lying around, but I have ran into some other problems..... What originally went from a VP swap and tappet reseal turned into a full blown reseal job, and had everything off that needed sealed, now the truck won't get out of second, and something's eating the belt :mad:. Only thing in the belt drive we changed was the tensioner pulley and we threw on off a 97 12v cause my wheel was a little stiff. VP is an old VP that was off my old motor that was new when we got the truck (53 block problems) and the old one showed signs of giving up, now I have no idea what's going on. Throwing some codes last I check, 0500 and 1693.

    Might be stepping up injectors, as when I turned in my old injection pump on a core, it was insanely rusty, and upon pulling the filters after 12k miles, there was a healthy amount of rust in the water filter. So that begs the question, are my injectors shot if my pump was rusty? What do you think @Mopar1973Man?
