LLY: Build thread/Compound install

Thanks for the reply. I thought it was a good idea but I wasn't sure if i'd have a priming issue or if something else about it wouldn't work. Did you reattach the fuel filter head heater wires?

I didn't attach it but probably will. I have 12 volt heating pads around my lift pump which is right next to the filter. I'll probably just tap into the power feed for that and hook the factory heater back up. Never hurts when it's cold out.

Found an old picture when I first got it moved. This was before the heating pads.

I relocated the positive battery cable. There is plenty extra wire and I think its going to work good.

Some handy tools. I used the 3/8 air ratchet to take the bottom starter bolt off. The combination of extensions works really well to get it from the other side of the motor mount.

I was considering relocating the factory fuel filter to the frame rail. Think it would work?

And an update. The turbo kit shipped today:bananallama:

put that cat filter on your air dog and be done with the factory crap. jmo

Is there a larger cat filter that fits the airdog?

That looks slick. Nice work!

I wanted to keep it for the extra filtration

Just waiting on the drives side charge pipe, the coolant tank, valve body, and the TCM

In the mean time I'll be fixing my power steering leak. Again.. The input seal on the gear box is leaking. Don't want to put shiny new parts in and have them get caked up with fluid

I'm really digging the color. The intake runners and 3'' y bridge were a nice upgrade. Yes the y bridge is sitting backwards just testing

some more

Nice progress so far. Obviously, you have another vehicle for winter use right?

 

[andy-stevenson]

Are the intake runners stock except for where the y bridge mounts?

They are close. The driver side doesn't have a place for the MAP sensor and the passenger side has one less threaded hole

Thanks! I've been picking at it slowly. We've been using my girlfriends trailblazer and I drive one of my bosses pickups to and from work which is only a mile away. So pretty set as far as vehicles go but I need mine back for fun

But in terms of flow they are the same?

Yes except where the y bridge mates. The new ones have a larger inlet that starts higher up and extend downward towards the block probably an inch or so further than the stock ones

There is a CAT filter that fits the AirDog. I'm not sure if the one I have on my fuel filter head would fit

Got this hot pipe heat wrapped

 

[jlitton232]

If you dnt get 2500 pics to fuel injectors, dose that mean, pump bad or fuel pressure regular

I had a up pipe bolt brake off in the pedestal when I was removing the turbo. The bolt didn't brake off flush lucky so it wasn't too hard to get out. Just soaked it with some lubricant and turned it out with vise grips

Nice build what runners are those the opening looks huge compared to you factory ones
