New Clutch
So Im looking for a new clutch I like working with DAP, so I emailed them this: Also need to figure out which clutch I need to get. When I bought the truck I was “told” it had a dragon flow vp44, 6x18’s, .093 lines and tubes, ham cam, springs, and 64/71/14 turbo and all the supporting mods and more. I did verify I have a valair competition dual disk (sintered iron) for pulling, I have taken all the electronics off of it and the only thing I havent verified is if the vp is infact a dragon flow… It does still have a ton of power so it might have it. I don’t plan on racing or pulling with this truck just a occasional driver or weekend truck and pulling a gooseneck with a skidsteer. I would guess the clutch would have to hold at least 600hp idk… and dual disk for towing. What do you think? What do you guys think? He put this on the quote: Valair Dual Disc Performance Replacement Clutch (Ceramic) 650HP NMU70NV45DDSN | 1989-2003 Dodge 5.9L Cummins With NV4500 or Getrag 5SPD SKU: VAL-NMU70NV45DDSN And yes I know it says for a nv4500... I need one for a nv5600... however... I really dont have a good estimate of what I might be close to on power. I dont want to get a new one and slip it cause I have to many ponies...

Question regarding 2000-2002 original steel dually wheels. Paint or powder coat?
I didnt see just the lug nut covers like yours? I have some 3rd gen 17" wheels that those might look good on.

Best or better anyway cruising rpm
Yea, my 02 6spd at 70 is 2500 with 285's. I'd say he has 3.55s... but I could be wrong.

New Battery Cable Terminals Going In
Yes indeed, might need some monster battery cables! 4/0 gauge... rated @ 600 amps @9 ft ? From one site I found. I'd say 12 ft would be more than enough but 9ft might make it back there.

New Battery Cable Terminals Going In
Gonna be updating my battery terminals also, still looking for a good set... also thought about relocating the batteries to a box in my flatbed and just have a power block up front, trick is finding a power block big enough for all that juice! Good info on oiling the terminals.

Increasing Fass PSI
Haha... Well that seems easy enough to do. Thanks guys. I'm guess this would jump the psi up 5 or so? What yalls experience with the increase...

Increasing Fass PSI
The spring bend you mentioned is what is pictured last?
-
Increasing Fass PSI
I have seen it before some where but cant find it anywhere... HA Short and sweet: Where can I get a shim or make one to increase my psi on my fass 200 titanium. Heard of guys shimming with washers, but id like to move from a consistent 14-15 psi to 20 psi for my bigger IP...

Best or better anyway cruising rpm
I'm pretty sure I have 4.10s I havent counted teeth yet but, I'd love to go to 3.55s though. Shes pretty high up there.

Brand new VP44
I have had good luck with remans, CPP Diesel or DAP always has good deals. I wouldn't dream of spending that much on a vp44... 1k to 1.2k tops. Even at that point I'd still question a P7100 conversion..
