  1. What do you have on that thing? My brother's 05 is 7500 and it's got the loaded interior and a set of twins. My brother and I both went the spacer route. No issues related to the lift from either of ours.
  2. I'd be a little scared of your pull angle if you pulled on it hard enough. You'd hate to rotate the bumper into he grill. I've got a shin bumper on the back so why not throw a couple on the front
  3. I think this is the one programmer I'll skip. My next one will likely be a TS MVP.
  4. Build it myself! Pretty close @Dieselfuture! I personally like the sides that go straight down though. I don't run wide tires so no need for the protection.
  5. Higher numbers on the comp usually give higher timing (Or so I read) and hifher timing gives lower egt's
  6. Airdog had a pretty bad slip in quality for a while. Some say the issues are ironed out, and some say there are still problems. If I were you I'd go with the tried and true Fass
  7. So this is on its way
  8. At least I'm not doing it off of mommy and daddy's money like many of the "kids" in my area
  9. Twins are fun... I'll never own another diesel without twins, even for low power they're amazing.
  10. NO driveline shop was closed on black Friday. I'll have to figure out a time when I'm off school to do it. Yeah I've been driving a LOT. It'll come to a halt after Christmas though.
  11. I think you could with a CR, but given the limitations of the P7100 stepping up to a larger primary would probably make it easier.
  12. I won't be the one to test that theory Going snowmobiling and having the pump crap out in -20* weather wouldn't be much fun. I can't imagine they're very fun to DD. Heck that one even has top feed injectors! I think I'll be happy in the 600's. It's hard enough keeping the tires planted in the cold!
  13. Also a VERY unreliable pump..... I think Industrial's dragon fire goes above 700, but again reliability sucks.
  14. 700 is unlikely on a VP. With a HO VP it's unlikely you'll make it to 600. If your VP happens to go out look into a SO VP. I've ridden and driven a 725hp 3rd gen... It's crazy when you can blow the back tires off at 50mph with 285/70/17. All it has are studs, twins (62/75), an 85% over cp3, 100hp injector tips, UDC tuning by me, and a south bend dual disc.
  15. From what I've seen the rods start to bend and break around 1,000. @ 900 you're pretty safe depending on how much torque you're making. Keeping the head on usually requires studs and fire rings.
  16. It's been intentional.... I'm trying to get miles on it so that I can switch to synthetic over Christmas! Currently been putting on close to 500 a week! 1,000 is going to cost some money.... I wouldn't try that on a stock bottom end. You've got a much looser exhaust side than I do. Elevation SUCKS
  17. I've got 8K on the motor now, so it started leaking a couple thousand ago. Secondary is an industrial injection phatshaft 62/65/12. Not sure about boost numbers. I was watching RPMs. I still need to buy the injectors......
  18. I like the mounting location.... Might have to copy that. Mine currently resides in the ash tray!
  19. Ever had a seal this crooked actually seal for 6k miles?? The rubber was actually formed crooked from the heat and position. When I installed the PS pump I must have hit it. This happened when the engine was rebuilt and a new PS pump went in. Note: I had not touched the seal at this point. Just popped the center section out!
  20. Steel is pretty heavy.... Even some chevys came with a stock one piece that was aluminum.
  21. Had my dad drive it last night. He believes the driveshaft is out somehow. Hopefully get it balanced tomorrow. Rolled over to 8K on the motor last night!
  22. I normally park in BFE, but I knew I wouldn't be leaving early so I parked close. I think they would hate the 3cyl idle every morning more than a little smoke.
  23. You should just do the upgrade now.... Would definitely be worth it!
  24. Exact opposite Large wheel: Slow spool, high flow. Small wheel: Fast spool, less flow. You also have to take into account the housing A/R to know how spool up is affected.
  25. Look something like this out the pipe?
