    3D printing questions

    I've got a 3d printer here that I tinker with every once in a while. I agree with some of the above posts, should be able to have that made for <$10. I've only ever printed in ABS but it's silly strong and hard to break with the way it prints inner-truss.

    Swapping Dmax into vehicles - Need wiring Info/Help

    I used alldatadiy.com to wire up my street rod for standalone. I didn't have to integrate dash and all that, but it did have all the pinouts and wiring diagrams for the engine and body harness. You just have to select the year of the Dmax harness you're using and probably have a 2nd subscription...

    Shout out to Levi!!!

    Honestly, I wasn't looking for better performance since the original blankets do a really solid job heat retention wise. Just looking to give everyone more color options and a good alternative to paying $250+ for a "titanium" color blanket. I'm working on several other colors, just a matter of...

    Shout out to Levi!!!

    Thanks Landon. Glad you like them. Hoping to have these and a few other options available to everyone else soon.

    Broke up pipe bolts

    I'd just look for a high grade flanged bolt if buying factory bolts isn't an option. I wouldn't overthink it too much.

    Oroville Lake Dam

    Made it to post #13 before linking the dam repair negligence to immigration and political issues. The internet is moving slower than usual this Monday morning. :rofl:

    Engine build

    :hug: Thanks Chris! Just happy to help. This truck build is getting so cool I'd be happy just to put fuel in it. :rofl: I won't clutter your thread but if anyone has questions about blankets, just shoot me a PM.

    MAP sensor flange

    Might try Mat at S&T steel.They're in Wichita Falls,TX. They're the ones the did my Dmax valve cover blanks and IIRC said they had most Dmax stuff scanned so they can waterjet if needed. Worth a call. Was really decent to work with.

    Colorado Diesel Parts

    Sounds like this might be a good upgrade for the Colorado diesel guys. Though the part in bold has me a little confused to say the least.

    Sweet, holiday really slowed down delivery but glad it made it. Looking forward to hearing how the truck runs with all the new additions.

    Any dyno or seat-o-pants results from this pipe over stock?

    Duramax aftermarket ecm?

    Doesn't really say this controls any other truck functions than engine/trans does it? Not sure what market this caters to if it doesn't control all the factory truck stuff though. At 5K you've got to really want a tuned truck.

    2 Stroke Detroit swapped duramax.

    Sweet! I'm not gonna thrash someone for being different, I was more curious than anything. To each their own.

    2 Stroke Detroit swapped duramax.

    Other than why not, why? They're definitely cool but isn't that a big step down in power unless it's been massaged?

    Duramax swapped Trailblazer SS...you might say why?...I say why not.

    I don't think Davies Craig makes a pump that moves more water. Not to say it won't work. I run the EWP115 on my Dmax street rod and it works fine but it's also open engine bay and not making as much power as you're planning on. IIRC the factory Dmax water pump is rated at a stupid 80gpm but...

    Stand alone wire harness

    I did the stand alone in my street rod. First attempt and I'm not what I consider good at wiring. It's time consuming but not all that difficult. Just need to hunt down what wires you want to remove and where to add power/grounds. You can buy a subscription on Alldatadiy.com that should have...

    New SFI Chassis rules allow sub 8.5 certs for Pro Street?

    I haven't heard that the committee had actually approved/implemented the new rules yet but word on the street was 7.99et, 5000lbs, 25.5spec expandable.

    Updates to The Dumpster

    Always very cool to see the van out there mixing it up. Have you considered modifying the dog house to fit the 72 on the back of the engine vs. having it in front of the engine? Moving turbo weight forward negates a little of the desired 7" setback effect. How much I don't know but it all...

    Duramax c10 swap...looking for opinions

    Where did you ripple your chassis at? Any pictures of the damage? Ryan Tucker also specifically left flex into this truck to make it hook on the launch, i.e. left certain areas unboxed to let it twist. Then Bean's bought it, put 4 digit power in it and started dragging the bumper. I'm not...
