    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    Sold it with unlimited tech support contract..lol Other fun fact it, while on lake Cumberland in like 2012, two different employees from the Dmax assembly plant flagged me down to check it out. A picture of the Warlock is actually centered on the breakeroom wall in the plant, along with a...

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    I had totally forgotten about that article. That is early press on the warlock. Ya can tell because the charge cooler was half the size in those pictures, and was modified before I bought it. Andrew from injectors direct bought it from me, off this forum, then changed the colors. It's currently...

    Stud packages were incorrectly marked as 50ftlbs torque. I pulled threads outa head on a couple before I caught it. Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    Happy New Year everyone. Had a nice chat today with my FL marine diesel buddies and gained a ton of insight on head studs and torque. They went as deep as load cells under the nuts data level.. While their bread and butter is 5.9 C power, they were also early pioneers of Dmax marinization, and...

    Avalanche body on Duramax frame wiring

    Was thinking they used a different map sensor part# . Not positive, but check it to be sure. Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk

    Avalanche body on Duramax frame wiring

    Spoke with a buddy today and ya should be OK with the LBZ tcm. MAF is different on LMM, and check MAP pinout and sensor Bar rating also. I recall those 2 being only things slightly different between LBZ and LMM on the stand alone builds I've done. Once ya get the ECM up to full GMLAN, then rest...

    Avalanche body on Duramax frame wiring

    That one I'll have to check for ya.. But easy upgrade if any. Few pin changes to engine harness between lbz/lmm, but then your smooth sailing with everything running high speed GMlan. Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk

    Avalanche body on Duramax frame wiring

    When you say 06 chassis, your meaning LLY correct? If so, hat makes it a bit more difficult, would require the BCM be from a LLY truck also. If early LBZ, you could easily upgrade to a LMM year ECM and pretty much plugNplay the chassis swap. Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk

    Yeah is about the only place I see ya could get a reasonable measurement. Casting surface inside coolant cavity doesn't look very uniform.

    Is there a good location to check head thickness? I have a few spares setting around and thinking maybe do a comparison before I true up these again. Sent from my SM-S901U using Tapatalk

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    I slept thru math class.. 100lbs per engine isn't horrible I guess. Have to tell the ladies to leave their purses on the dock due to recent engine modifications. Say we ring em, and send em as is for this round. Still can't say why the other engine is so darn happy with exact same parts. Gonna...

    Basically that was my last attempt. Wish I would have kept the bottle$, and listened to the end of this video rather than my buddies who swore by it... Source: https://youtu.be/jDFW7ezbPlc

    I'll look for Joe at PRI, and at least have a listen. But my guinea pig days are about done on this project. Don't have it left in me this close to the finish line. Outa 6yrs, probably 3 of them been spent resolving other peoples latest and greatest, your the first person,,, issues. 170lbs per...

    Having a bit of experience with 6leaker head studs, and chitty Black Onyx gaskets, I actually enjoyed viewing his work on this subject. As well noted on the Ford forums, the first go do Ford fix of studs and different gaskets bit about every tech who fell for some good advertising. I personally...

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    At a sportsman club meeting this evening and a friend ask me if I'd seen the Dmax cast iron heads. First I'd heard of them. Said he watched a video about them few days back. And big selling point was, no warping.. Someone school me please. Anyone put any power to em yet?

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    Some days, wonder what I'd be doing if I'd yanked that LLY and dropped a 6Leaker Power Stroke in there as was my thoughts back then. I'd learned plenty about head studs by now I bet.. To answer your question, does an air grinder with cleaning disk count??

    And this is where a lot of builders say it's better to bottom them out. I see not much has changed while I stepped away for three decades. Last loose felling I got, was on those injector hold down studs mistakenly marked for 50ftlb torque.. :) Interesting discussion none the less. Thanks for...
