    Engine build

    Don't pay any attention to the naysayers, it's your truck and your money, do what makes you happy. I'd spend hours just looking at everything, let alone starting and driving it! It's a work of art for the mechanically inclined.

    Cummins SS/PS we built

    good mph for that ET, shows the potential (HP is there) once the chassis gets sorted look out! very nice work, especially given the short timeframe

    03 crank but will not start

    He's talking about pressure at the injectors, not pressure to the CP3 pump. You need a scanner to test. There is no lift pump from the factory on the Duramax, the CP3 pump provides high pressure fuel to the injectors (more than 20,000 psi at times). The fuel to the CP3 is routed from the filter...

    mustang kill, new personal best.

    Interesting, I'll bet you didn't expect it to turn out that way regarding the shifter. Yes, I can see how much fun it would be, nothing like rowing through the gears :thumb: Please keep us informed, I love reading your posts. There's just not many manual trans equipped duramax powered drag...

    mustang kill, new personal best.

    It really is very impressive, I'd love to see an in the cab video showing both the shifting and clutch work as well as a video showing the gauges and windshield view. Does it consistently shift well, or maybe I should ask do you ever miss a shift? It sounds like it's very consistent as far as...

    Question: Spring clamp location?

    Mopar used to have what they called Super Stock leaf springs, which were intended for drag racing. The left and right springs were slightly different, with the weight of the car and an auto or manual trans being the difference between the different part #'s offered. The springs always had a very...

    PPE Boost increase valve

    You aren't going to make any additional power. You may lower your EGT slightly, and if you have a program installed you may decrease the smoke very slightly.

    Allison 6sp: 2 to 1 downshift neutral

    Going back to the 2 foot driving.... A lot of us older guys who used to drag race with an automatic and no trans-brake had to use both feet to launch the car. You would hold the brakes to come up on the converter somewhat (I used to go between 2500-2800 rpm on an 8" 4200 stall converter), then...

    PPE experience

    Despite both customer's efforts to mess things up, I still see a vendor doing everything possible to make things right. So who really looks bad here? It would seem PPE is more forgiving than I would be given what has transpired. Kudos to PPE for maintaining your cool, that couldn't have been...
