    LLY: My first oil change in the lly

    I've never heard that Schaeffer's does, I guess it all depends what was used before. I'm not all that familiar with Mystic...

    Should I consider this project

    U'll need a CP3 and I'd do 45% Inj as well. They'll make a really easy 600 with a very mild tune.

    LLY: My first oil change in the lly

    Schaeffer's is one of the best. The higher the quality of oil, the better the cold and hot weather margins...they expand together.

    LLY: My first oil change in the lly

    Make sure whatever you use has Molly in it. Schaeffer's I know does. I'd recommend the Schaeffer's Supreme Full Synthetic 9000 5w-40. The lower grade oils like Rotella T etc. are ok on stock engines, but I haven't been to impressed with the protection it gives a high performance engine. For...

    injector sleeves/locktite

    Lol No Problem. One more thing I thought about. I normally apply Mystic Grease to the O-Rings. Makes them slide into the head much easier.

    injector sleeves/locktite

    The surface that you apply the sealant to is marked by the #1. U do not want to put lock tight on the top were the 0-Rings are. Also you install it separate from the injector. It takes a little tap with a rubber hammer to get it seated properly in the head. You don't want to tap on the...

    Cordless Impact Gun, suggestions please

    As I understand it Snap-On Dealers have an inventory limit that is relative to sales. At our old location the dealers had to much driving in their route and were rather sporadic. We'd have one for 2 years then Snap-On would say, "Your not selling enough!" and they'd get the boot, then we'd be...

    Cordless Impact Gun, suggestions please

    X136! I ran the CT8810 for about 1 1/2 years and about 4 weeks ago I got the CT761. Now my clumsy CT8810 sits in the drawer! If my CT761 won't pull it my CT8810 prolly won't either! It is much cheaper than the CT8810 as well! Definitely an indispensable tool for an engine mechanic! I have the...

    Allison 5sp: Pops out of 5th

    I can't help you out much at this point, but I'm working at figuring it out. I'll let you know what I find out. I think I'm just do a trans build, but I want to figure out why its doing what it is b4 I go in hook, line, and sinker.

    I'd try a Turbo Socket and if that don't work do what the other guys are saying...weld a nut on.

    So, Why Oval?

    That makes sense

    So, Why Oval?

    I can't say why JD has the bowl off to the side, but that engine was most likely mechanically injected. John Deere's Piston and engine designs didn't change much between 1961 and 2007. The Injectors were angled into the head sort of like a 12v.

    Allison 5sp: Pops out of 5th

    Um no but I was trying to dial in my speedo to no avail. It's always about 4 MPH off. When I was doing that I did not change my rear ratio. I was changing pulses per km I think.

    Allison 5sp: Pops out of 5th

    Ok...its 2wd so no transfer case, I thought that if the C3 would be slipping it would put it in limp mode till it you manually clear the code? Yes every time so far I drop it into N then back into drive and it clears up and drives like normal. It has 4.10 Rears so its been in 5th for a couple...

    Allison 5sp: Pops out of 5th

    Allison 5spd Pops out of 5th Hello every one, I am having a little problem with a stock 5spd Allison. While under WOT at anywhere between 90-120 MPH it pops out of 5th then almost instantaneously drops into 4th, if I shift it into N then back into D it immediately is back to normal. Someone...

    New turbo! Couple questions...

    Goodness, he don't tell me anything about tuning. He said he figured about everything himself so I got to too. LOL I can't really blame him. No tuner is going to tell you his tricks. All I know is that he has a knack for it and I have used his tunes on several different trucks. Definitely not...

    New turbo! Couple questions...

    Not sure what's annoying about it. I personally am not a VGT fan and hate the hiss sound. On my LLY I had every tune LB7 Rumble, but u still couldn't get away from the annoying VGT squeal at WOT. Its especially obvious with 5" strait ex.
