:banghead: 1) You cannot make a Freightliner configuration engine think it's a Dodge because the tone wheels for the crankshaft and the cam shaft are in different locations. Time to buy a grossly overpriced, remanufactured and reprogrammed CM-850 computer from Cummins because the CM-849 just ain't gonna work.2) "a few dyno pulls" means that they pulled the rings right out of the engine so I didn't have enough compression to even light the fire despite how good the cylinder walls look.3) My rule of thumb for how long it's going to take to finish a project (2.5 times my best honest guess) is not obsolete but ancient history. 4) Injecting methanol into a diesel engine will make it run great for only a very short and very expensive amount of time. A belated thank you for the suggestions.

What about the flared end fittings that appear to be welded or brazed in place?

HELP!!! I've tranplanted a 2006 HPCR into a 2000 Ford Excursion 4x4 with an Allison 1000 5-speed and I CANNOT get it to fire. Anyone got any ideas? I had Bob Wagner (Smarty) program the ECU to shut off the SKIM requirement and make it into a "stickshift" so I can run the Allison TCM as a stand alone. I have 90hp injector tips, a modified cam and have bypassed all the wiring I can think of just to eliminate potential problems so I can get it running, but it simply will NOT fire without a shot of NO-NO fluid, but will not keep running. Once the ether is gone, no fire, period. Also, it appears that the oil pump is losing it's prime if it sits overnight and won't pump oil up to the rockers without forcing oil into the turbo oil feed tube first. Any ideas and suggestions short of shoving it off a cliff would be appreciated. Thanks in advance- steve "dieselclam holmes

First post here- Greetings to all and I hope y'all can help me:pray: with a few problems. For this thread, I need to know where I can get a custom made fuel line that will fit between an added CP3 fuel pump that sits on top of the front of the intake plenum and the fuel rail log that is lower and behind and ATS intake horn. I have to route the line UNDER the intake or I cannot run heaters. I have a REAR GEARCASE ISBe installed in a 2000 Ford Excursion. Anyone have any ideas? I've faked it by bending and twisting a line that I had, but that is going to fail at the worst possible moment. Thanks in advance- steve "dieselclam" holmes
