    I'll check again for boost leaks. How would you check a drive pressure leak or can you?

    Built motor sluggish

    Nope I haven't done anything since I got it back from the engine builder. It's been like this the whole time. That's why I don't know if it's just me

    Built motor sluggish

    Ok I'm new to this built motor stuff so it might just be me. But my motor seems sluggish until it gets to 2200rpms then it's an animal. Like goin down the road 70mph I'm at 1500rpms and 3psi of boost so on a hill it just chugs and puffs smoke the egts are around 1300 up a hill and around a 1000...

    Zinc additive

    The motor should be around 1000hp and it's not really a daily driver. Lucky to see 5000 miles a year on it

    Zinc additive

    I'm ready for my 500 mile oil change on my built motor. So do I need to put zinc additive in it? If so do I need to do it every change since all this new oil has less zinc in it?

    Built motors with lml cranks

    So if a narrow rod crank isn't in your budget. You would be taking a gamble with the compstar just as you would be with a stock crank?

    Built motors with lml cranks

    To the guys runnin lml cranks in their built motors. How are they holdin up? I've seen Wagler and a couple other companies on Facebook lately posting broken lml cranks and pushin the new Callies compstar. Wagler claims the lml is the weakest crank so I was just curious how they are holdin up.

    It was a white dually with ATS on the doors. They still have it but it's now got a wrap on it with their logo. They also got a black dually now.

    $4000 machine shop bill!!

    Yea my buddy was carrying it in and he dropped it. Not much of a fall maybe a foot and a half landed flat but I told them to check it to make sure. It was a brand new lml crank he felt pretty bad about it lol

    $4000 machine shop bill!!

    The shop isn't done with the heads yet. They're getttin completely redone they needed everything. The cam is a wagler af cam so it was already keyed. As far as the rest I'll ask for a full list when I pay the final bill. So like you said it'll help down the road.
