    Cranks

    I'm wondering how many of the breaks had anything to do with water methonal injection. I had a snow system installed on mine about 10 months prior to busting the crank, and I'm pretty sure I cracked it soon after it was installed by doing a boosted launch (something really weird happend...

    Rear Brakes Wear Fast

    Something like this is what I have essentially thought all along. Truck always seemed to stop pretty well, but as I said before I have the bigger brakes on the front so that may have compensated somewhat for not getting sufficient pressure to the front calipers? I flushed the brake fluid...

    Rear Brakes Wear Fast

    I can't get any of my brakes to lock (truck has anti-locks). Rusted sliders may be an issue elsewhere, but not here in Las Vegas. I did find, however, that on my last change, that the slider grease was essentailly fried onto the slider. I guess that is just the excessive heat (and I may...

    Rear Brakes Wear Fast

    Does anyone else have a problem with their rear brakes wearing ridiculously fast? I get about 15,000 miles out of mine rear brakes and 50,000 out of my front brakes. Also, when I go to change the pads, the rear rotors are usually cracked from the excessive heat. Even the after market ones I...

    Boxing

    What? Not nearly as many knockouts boxing, and with the fights continually getting shorter, fights nearly always going the distance, and continuously rigged judging, I gave up on boxing quite a while ago. Hell there aren't even any good heavyweights left are there? MMA is a much more complete...

    Don't know how much this adds to the discussion, but i saw this blurb on the Confederate Diesel site along with the pictures of the bearings: "Here are some bearings from a bent crank. This happens to stock engines and as well as 1200 hp units. Internal balanced cranks, and external balanced...

    If You Have/Want A Built Motor Look Here.

    So McRat, would you: Re-use the oil pump and cooler? Use stock head studs and main studs? Would you replace any of the factory bolts if you all looked OK? And, when you say, "cut pistons," would you just use delipped LB& pistons or is there a particular brand (and cut?)...
