How does my turbo look?
Yes last leg too. Maybe 8 years ago it was making noise on a dyno. That was the last dyno it was on.

How does my turbo look?
Sounded like a M-80 going off under the hood. I definitely had to check the pants after that one. I then drove it from Lynnwood to the to of Everett and back.

Fass Fuel Systems and air in fuel issues.
I had problems with FASS lift pump too. I cut the screens out, then still getting air. My float totally came off the stick. I bought a new pick and the pickup was longer and lower in tank. It was from Vulcan Performance.com. It was one that was made for a differant car and was modified by the seller.

Cummins vs Powerstroke Diesels
Cummins engine is a medium duty and others are considered a light duty. I bought the engine not the truck. Cummins has much more touque than others as well. The Ford has more creature comfort, but I had to go Cummins. I have used the international 7.3 and it had problems with cavation on #8 cylinder.

Days like today lots of snow
I was a driver for 25 years lots of practice and no accidents on snow or ice. I agree it's the 9nes who shouldn't be on the road. We are lucky that we just have anywhere we need to go.

Turbo smart blow off valve
I could see where the pieces had gouged the other side of intercooler and even the piece before the grid heaters. I was surprised at the number and also the size of them. I guess just the force of 40+ psi and sounded like a M80 blew up under the hood. I also had 100's of pieces in the air filter. Just expand the pic and look at how much is missing off wheel

Turbo smart blow off valve
Yep still ran till we ran out of coolant on the side of hwy. We were still 150 to home. So I used water in the trailer to refill multiple times. Last 30 miles or so I just continued to drive home with not much in it and getting real hot.

Turbo smart blow off valve
I talked to Rip and he said when he blows 3 or 4 turbos is when he rebuilds on his race truck. Only reason I bought a long block was the major crack. My turbo was a 14cm and in past when on a dyno I could hear squealing from the turbo.
