LPO Issue?

Made some progress today. Engine is back together and installed. As anyways lining up the tranny was a bitch. Got it filled with oil, cranked it by hand then hooked it up to crank it with the starter. Need to install the coolers and trans filter tomorrow. Hopefully I'll have it up and running tomorrow.

Back together and running like a champ!

Anyone know the headgasket break-in time/conditions?

Depends on boost and if you got studs.

I like doing a hot retorque.

Stock studs, stock turbo.

We did the same thing yesterday lol. Good to see it back up and running.

You can hold off truck pulling and mountain trailer pulling till after 10,000 miles.

Won't be doing any heavy work until winter, most likely. Maybe late fall to tow some gravel for the driveway.

Basically what I did so far was let it idle up to temp, then drove it for 20 minutes or so,, let it cool and set overnight, checked/cleared codes, and did the same thing the next day.

Ran great, didn't push it hard but did see ~900*F and 17lbs of boost up one bigger hill. So if that didn't pop it I suspect she's good to go. I'll still take it easy for a couple hundred miles before I run it hard tho.

(Re)Register it Wednesday so I'll be able to put some miles on it. New Rosewood injectors sound and run great, no more AE in the #8 slot, too.
