sounds fun.........not. I hate tearing her down, so much stuff atop.

Hey Trent,
What is that in the first pic, behind the turbo? Looks like a locking dipstick for tranny?

would someone point me in the right direction to where the strikes are coming from? LOL

Seems there's some beef, maybe just play. But I do have popcorn and coronas ready............to do some reading.

Right on Trent:D Good luck this weekend:hug:


The bolts? Or the hold downs themselves?


Bolts for the rocker bridges, Superdiesel was doing it years ago:D

Studs would be better,But I think stock bolts are metric equivlant to a grade 5 ( junk ) I run grade 12.9 bolts on mine

You can purchase a set ARP from Greg Houge IIRC

Oh, i thought you were talking about the injector hold downs. Those are both stock on my motor, but it is tore down at the moment, ill look into that. I doubt ill get studs but ill look into the bolts. On Edit, how much are the arps?

trucks almost all the way done :D, just need some plumbing parts to adapt the dual cp3 to my MITUSA plumbing. just wish i could fire it up already , but I'm really close . should be able to find what i need tommarrow. talk about a big job , i have made pretty decent time , so far i figure i have about 18 hrs for injectors, head studs, and dual fueler install , hopefully wont have but a few more hours left unless i find a problem once i can fire it up :baby: because we did have 2 cups lift that we had to re-install and 2 cylinders that filled with coolant as a result just from there being coolant left in the block .

I cant thank my freind Matt Larson enough , he has been alot of help !

That's awesome news, Trent! Hopefully everything goes smoothly tomorrow. Good luck getting it fired up again! I look forward to hearing about how your track times and dyno numbers react to the new mods. :coolspot:
