    New twin pics

    Very cool :coolspot: But I have a question: What am I looking at behind the coolant reservoir? What is the transmitter for?

    Driver's side exhaust Manifold

    Almost everything has arrived!!!

    I have the sleeves (PPE from McRat) already. They went on with last summers front end alignment. My concern with the straight centerlink is the loss of turn radius. I will probably end up with one anyway, but it makes me a little nervous because of the CC/LB. Thanx...

    Driver's side exhaust Manifold

    If you keep an eye on the boards they do come up used. I found one for $200 USD + shipping. It just depends on how long you are willing to wait. I'm not sure about the difference in EGT's side to side, but it has to help. FWIW, someone here has some RDL up pipes for sale used.

    Almost everything has arrived!!!

    The post man and UPS have been working overtime at our place. The used BD manifold and Caltracs arrived early last week, and UPS showed up on Friday with the new HTT 6616 SS from Pat. I am waiting for the RDL's to show up, and some new pressure transmitters for fuel, drive, and boost, then...

    Question: How many have broken Input shafts ?

    How messy does a broken input shaft get? Is it the kind of deal were you can just pull the shaft and replace the thing, or does it start taking out other hard parts when it lets go?

    Can you fix ECMs?

    The dealers in our area charge $100 to hook up with the Tech II, read, then reflash for the stock settings and all the updates if you are out of warranty.

    IHI rebuild

    Check HTT here, I think they may sell rebuilt IHI's, and rebuild yours if you don't mind waiting.

    Up Pipes. are they worth it?

    Another way to ask the question is has anyone seen a decrease in EGT's from running the up pipes? This may not be a valid question on the track, but for on the daily driven truck?

    where to get-up pipe studs, ex manifold bolts?

    I am starting to collect parts for my HTT install, and want to put studs in my up pipes, and to replace the exhaust manifold bolts on the drivers side (putting on the BD manifold). Is there someone how has figured out what size the studs are for the up pipes and has a kit I can just buy, or...

    Banks???

    FWIW, I put mine on level 6 and never looked back. That was OK for towing my 6800# Airstream, but I nuked the tranny when I used level 6 for the slide in camper. I did play with the Speed Loader setting a little and liked it, but it WILL get the stock tranny if you play hard.

    LB7 Starting issue

    What about the oil? It could be leaking under the valve covers into the pan.

    Banks???

    I bought the Six-Gun Bundle w/PDA-intake, wastegate, exhaust, tuner. I figured I did not need the intercooler in Alaska. I like that my exhaust does not drone going down the road. I loved the system, it all worked, was well engineered, and it allowed me to milk the last few miles out of the...

    LB7 Starting issue

    Are there any fuel leaks from the injector lines? Is it making oil? It sounds to me like he is getting air in the system somewhere.

    It's been warm here for this time of year. It was 42* at the house this morning (at 5:30). It's been a crazy fall.

    Twin 38mm wastegates

    This is just a comment, but I think it would be hard to get two wastegates to open at the exact same pressure. It may end up being slightly staged on the opening because of differences in springs, specific adjustment, and how each wastegate senses the pressure from the up pipe. Again, just a...
