    Catastrophic turbo failure - 72mm Danville performance- Now what?

    My truck blew the dip stick out maybe 3 times at the drag strip and I was worried I had big problems but the truck ran fine no blow by or anything else wrong so I pinched the tube a little… that same season it ended up putting a rod and piston through the block. I always wondered if it was...

    The post intercooler pipe used to be 3 pieces including the y bridge so now it’s one. And he welded a bunch of tabs around the tanks for a little piece of mind but it’s crazy the temp difference of each side of the intercooler after making a pass.

    Thanks for that info I’ll have to remember that. And yes it was made for my truck the cores are vibrant I can’t remember the dimensions off hand and so far everything has been working well. The intercooler and most of the pipes have been done for a few years now I have an old thread of the build...

    They are very nice.. the only thing I don’t care for is they only come with aluminum ferrules you have the buy the stainless separately and always end up with a bunch of aluminum ones laying around.

    If you go on vibrants website they call them hd clamps motion raceworks makes them as well.. vibrant already redid them since they came out they don’t take the pin anymore probably because everyone would always lose them.

    Yeah he tacks everything and then checks for all movements to make sure nothing will rub… I see a lot of stuff firepunk does on social media it seems that’s all they use anymore. I can have all the pipes off in about 5 minutes

    Yes i believe they have like 12 degrees of movement if I remember right.

    Little update haven’t done much been redoing the last 2 pipes haven’t touched the wiring harness… little before and after of the y bridge my buddy does all of the pipe work and made the intercooler he wants to get rid of the last rubber boot which is the 4inch going in to the 366.

    Yeah that’s what I was thinking about doing just ordering some pins, I think my dad has the tool to crimp the pins and just cut the wires at the bail connector.

    Well there goes my chances of 9s this year

    Thanks man and yeah I got tired of trying to work around the upper rad hose or having to drain the coolant… but first time I had the engine out I completely stripped the harness took out every wire/plug I didn’t need and recovered everything. Now everything that goes to the passenger side of the...

    Thanks guys I appreciate it! And I have no idea who made this turbo kit I know it’s pretty old and we reworked a lot of the piping.

    Getting pretty close to start putting the front end back on. I’ve been putting off cleaning up the wiring harness I have miles of extra wire that I don’t know what to do with so I’ll probably end up taking a break for a while.
