    Cold start upgrades

    A functional 7.3 does not need to be plugged it. Should fire immediately. As for the idea of improvements to cold running..... B-code nozzle VOP. I don't even wait to start anymore in normal temps, no matter how long it's been sitting. It just cranks immediately. Make sure your program...

    Heui Injection

    My timeline for swapping out my fully filled and girdled engine for a fully water-jacketed engine in my 02 DD was moved up when the "exhaust leak" I kept chasing for the last 4 months or so, while taking apart everything pre-turbo, including the turbo itself multiple times seems to have been a...

    7.3 lift

    37 x 12.50 I get it but you can't run any of the new, large steering boxes with leafsprings. They physically occupy the same space. Truck only drives like an old truck because of the box. With the larger box the truck drives just like my 17 or 20 model. I lost the leaves to clear that box...

    7.3 lift

    I know you already balked at radius arms but man..... it's right there. Most of the holes are already in the frame. I did 2010 axles under my 02 with Carli tuned King coilovers in the front and a 2016 steering box. Drives just like a 17+ now.... if only they had kings that is. Plus the wider...

    PCS themselves have always been hands off. Yes, the 5R is shit..... as a transmission, because it is catch and release. I literally just sold a beautiful F450 just to get away from a 10R for this reason. I am driving a 22 year old truck because I chose a PCS 4R over a brand new 10R precisely...

    If you did 1-2, lock, 2 over 3, 3 over, 4, 4 over You just did 8 solid ratio changes. As for the pressure...... might be interesting to disable the pump and route fluid pressure from the 4R.... then it would be pressure controlled with all the other shifts. Then adjust the orifice in the GV...

    B-Code VOP

    Geez..... has NOBODY actually run higher nozzle opening pressures? Grandma's, cousin's brother-in-law..... nobody? I have run them with a stock BD nozzle some but not much on a power oriented nozzle. I bet it would clear the idle haze on a 200. Might even egt better still.

    Also.... don't know what the max input torque is on the GV.... but I bet you could get it unhappy engaging it in lower gears.

    I am extremely confident the PCS will kick it on after 4th as a double over. 99.999%. And I bet you could also split gears with it.... just don't know how good those shifts would feel. Might feel like the 5, 6 and 10R garbage transmission shifts. Stacking shifts one atop the other is why the...

    B codes vs hybrids

    I think hydraulic pressure is easier to accomplish by simply asking for less Rotella flow rather than constantly trying to flow 5 or 6 or 7 TIMES as much Rotella as fuel. Everybody else is just flowing fuel. Imagine if a CR guy suddenly had to flow 5 or 6 TIMES as much fuel per millisecond to...

    No.... it is a stand-alone trans controller. You literally tell it which outputs go to which solenoids and what order you would like to fire them in. I run my EPC valve based on MAP for instance.... not TPS. My trans is nearly always spot on with shift firmness this way. You can do just...

    B-Code VOP

    I can tell you they run cleaner and crisp. I just broke a couple nozzles week over week, then popped an input shaft and parked it...... for half a decade.... I need to revisit it. V-alve O-pening P-ressure

    PCS should run a GV no problem. The PCS just wants to know how many gears (in that case 5) and what solenoid order you want to use. I imagine a person might be able to have the PCS pop the GV on and off and split each gear automatically if they wanted. Is there a reason you aren't looking...

    B codes vs hybrids

    Old thread.... but close to a topic I am working through right now so I will respond in case it may be useful down the line. IIRC.... with larger nozzles, like a 200 or 400 for instance, the Hybrid flows more fuel with the same pw and icp on the bench and in the truck. The only way that is...

    B-Code VOP

    I need to know if anyone has run B-Code VOP on non-stock nozzles and put some real miles on them. Years and years ago I ran BI springs IIRC on some 200 EDM's and had a couple broken nozzles in rapid succession. I don't know if it was related or not. If anyone has put some miles on some high...

    Don't grunt it out, spin it up. 500hp at 2800 rpm is 937ft/lbs. Stock forged will hold that all day. But, 937 ft/lbs at 4500 rpm is 802hp....

    Heui Injection

    I think with the reality that ports don't flow into open air and that there is a piston in the way, as air pumps, the 7.3 and the 12v should move air similarly, cylinder per cylinder. I don't agree that having 2 more cylinders will basically wash out. As bad as the 7.3 flows, it should still...

    The beauty is..... it's tied to crank.... So no matter what speed you spin it, the fuel goes in the hole in the same degrees crank for the same cc's of fuel... and you move that window forward in time with the SOI timing with the stock Ford timing table. As for comparing the E7 to the 7.3 on...
