    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    The exhaust is all water jacked so if you blow a fuel or oil line, there is no ignition heat source. Goal is no surfaces over 250F. Now at this power level that's kinda hard to guarantee. We logged turbo cold side discharge at over 500F on the dyno. So ya do your best with what ya have. The...

    Twins with Twins, Anyone?

    I was thinking little red and BIG RED. The blades will be wired in on the kill swich lanyards too, along with ecm power. Still need to devise a failsafe release trigger on the TB. Leading contender is latching pull solenoids. But if you cut the power cord, single point of failure. The fuel...

    Your trending in Australia I hear.. :-) He has a new respect for big hp, small qube diesels for certain. I told him they demand respect, and ya really don't wanta be strapped to one that's pissed off and won't die. Nothing is 100% failsafe, but a throttle blade at the intake beats a knife in...

    Moved the boat to a bigger shop today. In town, close to a buddies speed shop, my hydraulics guy, and fastenal. So that should speed up the process a bit. Also doing up the exhaust pipes this week. I was shooting for a couple $100 hood stacks, but the owner wouldn't bite. After watching...

    L5P L5P Tuning

    Just watched that video. Felt they should have recorded it in the parking lot of a CA emissions testing facility with a big FU CARB in white letters on the side of the truck. Then I'd be impressed.. :spit:

    LML Callies Durastar Crankshaft Issues??

    Na your all good, I just drink tea .. If ya go back to the top and read my first couple post on this, which Callies obviously has also, I said believed it looked like harness issue. They say no it's machining issue on the thrust surface. Which bothers me worse because they built all those...

    LML Callies Durastar Crankshaft Issues??

    I certainly agree this problem remains with manufacturing. But it does make one think, what the heck is driving these crank fwd hard enough to cause the type a wear seen.. I mean it's riding on oil. Or is designed to be at least. Must be defective blocks... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using...

    LML Callies Durastar Crankshaft Issues??

    Ok so I may have something useful to add now besides my typical sarcastic remarks on this one. Yesterday I hit up Austin at Wagler since they had a few yellow boxes on that pallet of cranks pictured. According to him no reports of failures on the Ultra Billet version. Great new for me at...

    LML Callies Durastar Crankshaft Issues??

    Sorta reminds me of my hip Dr telling me the chrome plated steel on steel hardware he installed might need a "revision." To which I replied "Did you install a USB port in my ass or something, cause only software gets revisions, hardware gets REPLACED." Is nice to see Wagler stepping up on this...

    2011 fuel gauge issues!!

    As I posted above, read the fuel level with a scan tool. If the scan tool matches the gauge, then it's most likely the sending unit.

    LML Callies Durastar Crankshaft Issues??

    All sounds reasonable, until that last paragraph.. Unless all these failures have been in LML blocks, I don't see his installation remarks being relevant. If rear cap alignment is that critical, this issue should have shown up on other builds using stock or different cranks by now. Had a nice...

    How's about I buy you a plane ticket? Would be quicker, the boat won't fit on an airplane very easily. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    Ok I'll move.. So where to? Trying my best to make an event first week of June, but to many man hours left for one person. All the help I have today requires close supervision. Which means nothing much happens when I gotta run after parts and such. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk

    Call out to anyone who's got some free time and would like to help out on killer build. I could sure use a hand wrapping up all these small projects like fueling, electrical, and welding up the exhaust pipes. Pays shitty, but I do supply food, booze, and strippers... Sent from my...

    LML Callies Durastar Crankshaft Issues??

    Well that moves the decimal point a couple places to the left.. 2% failure rate isn't what I would call a huge issue. But what I really hate about this industry, if not for Internet forums, everybody's aftermarket parts failures would be Zero.... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G890A using Tapatalk
