The fuel filter canister? No. It is in my scrap pile.

Oh ok. 

[Marcus2000monster]

What turbos are you going with? Compounds or single?

I am excite. I ordered a Goerends triple on Wednesday and it will be here today. So I can FINALLY finish the transmission for this thing. No one should have to drive a stock 47re for a year. I will be pirating most of the transmission from the green truck. 3rd gen rotors are coming today as well. Just need the flex lines from Crown and I can finish the rear axle. Gonna be busy here in the coming weeks.

Makes me wanna drive up to see it when it's done and see how it drives

[jlbayes]

Converter and rotors showed up on Friday. I now have everything to do 3rd gen brakes on the rear axle. I did discover my front drive shaft is thrashed so I will need to do something about that.

[Royal Squire]

You could just remove it 

[jlbayes]

It already is. It would have damaged a bunch of stuff with the ujoint darn near apart and the drive shaft flapping around. 

[Royal Squire]

Had a neighbor that lost a joint in rear drive line on his bronco and drove for quite a while with just front shaft. Never went very far or very fast though 

[notlimah]

What triple from Goerend did you end up going with?

[jlbayes]

Had to do that in my old square body @Royal Squire. Talk about torque steer lol.

 

15ss @notlimah

[notlimah]

Nice, I have the same. I wasn’t sure they could be run on a compound setup so that’s nice to hear.

[jlbayes]

I will have a small secondary. Only reason I went with it.

[notlimah]

Ah gotcha. I read earlier about the compounds so just assumed you’d need something like the 17ss so I’ll definitely be interested to hear how it all works out.

 

Also with a 650hp goal are you leaving the flex plate stock?

I have an aftermarket sitting on the shelf waiting. I have a ton of stuff I've gathered up over the last year.  

[notlimah]

That doesn’t exactly sound like a bad place to be in!

I was busy af all weekend. Pulled the built trans from my 24v, removed the mpm input with the direct and forward clutches. Installed those on a standard billet input and into what was the 24v trans. I also installed brand spankin new Goerends 15ss triple disc and valve body. So the old 24v trans has a fancy Sonnax billet direct drum, mpm 2nd gear band, mpm billet output, tcs & sonnax billet little pieces, 3.8 lever and prolly a couple other things I am forgetting. A buddy and I spent most of yesterday finishing reassembly of the old 24v trans, removing the trans from the 12v and installing the new trans. But......it was so worth it. Trans is solid af. It has taken a year but we now have a built auto in the 12v. Injectors are next.

Only pics I took.

Man it's a vicious cycle.   did you splash holy water on the parts after pulling them from the green thing?

[jlbayes]

We blessed it in every way possible. Had a hell of a time getting the new converter to seat. Idk what its problem was.
