Unfortunately my truck is usually the last to get some attention with everything we've got going on but I finally got to do a few upgrades on my 02 7.3 this week. This week we finally installed our Alradco intercooler on our 7.3 and hooked up the trans cooler in our Alradco radiator. I kind of feel bad as our own truck is always on the back burner for everything.
I pulled a small load today, was about 15k-16k gross combined. EGT's were way down over stock 100-200 degrees depending on the situation. On the freeway for example at speed limit temps were about 100 degrees lower. Pulling small grades temps were up to 200 degrees lower.
We also hooked up the trans cooler on our Alradco radiator. Before at low speeds I would see temps from 180-210 degrees on the trans. Today I couldn't get the trans over 150 degrees.
I'm looking forward to hooking up the big trailer and see how everything does.
Next up on the install list is a T500 hpop. I'm also kicking around the idea of doing a 38r and injectors at the same time.
A few pics.
