    Promise i'm not a liar

    I get high mileage My self. The zf6 and reg cab plays a big part in it. Like the truck by btw:thumb: Thanks man. but yeah single cabs and zf-6 helps a lot. its got manifolds and intercooler too, which probably doesn't hurt

    Promise i'm not a liar

    Yeah I fill it up to the click so it's probably a little off. But I'm sure on the mileage I've googled it before. But like I said I clicked it and let it run again and it showed about 25. I think that might be a truer number Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Promise i'm not a liar

    Yeah I get what you're saying catman. I got 28.5 one other time and let the pump run again and still showed 24.7. on that drive the truck usually averages 24-25 and I just wanted to see what was the very best I could get. True aberage with idling and everything else is about 19. Seems to get the...

    Promise i'm not a liar

    I know its hard to believe anyone on fuel mileage but these numbers are hand calculated and I wanna see if anyone else has ever seen these. filled up at home and drove to college, all highway and interstate. filled back up, 70 miles, and averaged 29.2 MPG. anyone else ever seen anything this...

    Question: Flywheel question

    Got a clutch builder that can build a dual disc for me around $1400, looking for a stepped flywheel. anyone know where I could buy one? also is there any difference in a dual and triple disc flywheel?

    Broken Crankshaft Count?

    I've noticed this in my truck. It's a zf6 solid flywheel and especially in 5gear just bringing it up, the gearshift really moves left to right from about 1700-2000 then stops like you flipped a switch. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Broken Crankshaft Count?

    To me it still goes back to balance because they all break in nearly the same place. We all know about the firing order being 3-1-2 and that makes me think that throws the harmonics off. If it was an inherent design flaw of the crank itself they should break in any and every spot. It would be...

    Broken Crankshaft Count?

    I'm definitely no expert but these are just my thoughts on it. I did some research on the old 6.5's a while back on why they break cranks and the best I could come up with was balance. I don't think it has any correlation to power because the 6.5's didn't have enough power to get out of their...

    New Clutch

    Put a new single disc in 3 years ago rated for 500hp. 30k miles later and had no trouble at all, clutch has been great. got new max effort tunes and sure enough tunes #3, 4 and 5 slip it. was wandering what everyone is running. I want a very streetable dual disc with a pretty easy pedal feel

    Question: Can you hurt a built transmission with a 5th to 4th downshift?

    So i'm curious, how do you know? lol

    Towing MPG?

    9 MPG sounds perfectly fine to me when pulling that long of a trailer with bad injectors. was the wind blowing? something that size will catch a lot of wind on the road. and when was the last time you changed the fuel and air filter?

    Newbie to zf-6 question

    I bought my zf-6 with 170k and it was going in 5th fine but jumping out. ended up being a roll pin in the shifting fork but replaced the entire 5th gear assembly and it wasn't horrible. few hundred for parts and a few hundred more for labor. if you can get it caught early you're probably better...

    Really? that's kind of disappointing i've heard EGT peaks would be 200 lower. thanks for the advice

    LB7: Intake horn, Downpipe, Batmo wheel

    So I've got an 03 LB7 with the only turbo mods being a banks wastegate spring and a ppe boost valve. I was looking at doing a downpipe and intake horn from profab and maybe an upgraded compressor wheel of some type. looking for opinions on how much of a difference it makes? opted for this since...

    LB7: Excessive Knock

    Problem Solved Pulled the rubber boot around the shifter and there was no insulation around the hole in the floor or shifter linkage. insulated it up with dynamat and put the boot back on. Unbelievable how much noise came through there.

    LB7: Excessive Knock

    Yeah I definitely don't think its any internal hard parts creating the knock. My guess is it has to be something in the injection system. It doesn't sound as violent as a hung open injector, but maybe a much more mild version of that. But yes I've run power service, lucas, 2 stroke oil. any...

    LB7: Excessive Knock

    nope. it actually hardly smokes at all. My biggest tune is about a 200 hp tune and even it only grey hazes. no smoke at idle or anywhere else.

    Spongey Clutch Pedal

    Do you mean pumping it that many times when bleeding the master cylinder? if so then no. I usually only pump it 8-10 times until the pedal comes back up
