    Never mind. Scratch that. My engine builder already has one, and is further along than I expected.

    Used truck market at standstill??

    I sold one recently. Took a little hit on it from what I was asking, but still made money. Guy showed up with cash, and was the only bite in 3 months or so. So yea it seems to have slowed down.

    LB7 LML Allison 1000 conversion & swap

    He hasn’t really gained anything other than complexity when it comes to the electronic line pressure control over using an 06-10 6 speed trans where it’s all mechanical. But as he’s talking about a solenoid blocker/epc fooler, he’s not utilizing the electronic pressure controls anyway and...

    Engine temp started to climb during last trip

    I had that issue on a hot day uphill, kinda in between gears lugging the engine cause of traffic. And it wasn’t the cooling stack as I just replaced it all. Hasn’t done it since. This was running a tow tune. Since then I’ve towed strictly on the HOT tune and never had temps climb like that...

    I’ll be home Saturday, heading out for another 2000 mile trip in a week or two, if you can get one to me by the time I leave I can run it.

    Need some opinions on 2010 LMM build

    I think I’ll like it too. Been reading lots of the old posts on here, not much for complaints running the 3794/s480 combo. I’m gonna go with the 150% lbz’s and a single 12mm.

    Who makes GM brakes?

    Akebono on the 01-10 as far as I know, TRW on the 11+. Run akebono pads on all my gm crap for the most part.

    Custom Duramax Engine Stand

    Only thing that would make that better is some forklift pockets welded to the bottom side so i can scoop it right up and put it in the back of a truck.

    I try to keep an eye on pressure, as I can tell when it gets hot but at this point, I don't even care. I have two complete low miles stock engines sitting on the floor in the garage. Gonna put this thing thru the ringer until the built motors done. LMM oil pressure sucks with Rotella T6...

    I turned it up to the hot tune towing that black truck yesterday. Temps were better than in the lower tunes. Trans didn’t get above 192, coolant hovered around 200. EGT’s hit 1100 under wot having to pass some morons but that’s about it. 800ish cruising. Ambient was 90. It was a bit tongue...

    I guess billet 480 it is then. Brad send me a pm, give me an idea of price to get mine modified to see if it’s even worth doing.

    4.30 would have gotten me just about back to stock. Having done the math in a spreadsheet, 4.56 worked best for me and I was able to get a set of US made AAM 4.56 gears over all the foreign stuff offered by everyone else. Then found a set of new old stock American made USA standard gears on...

    It’s mainly the gearing, the speeds I run at pretty much render 6th gear useless, and the rest of the times it seems just a few hundred rpm under the power band.. I’m putting 4.56’s in soon with compound turbos. Should make it better. Steel wheel adapters, load range f Toyos and a Kodiak fan...
