    Stumped! Help!

    if your scan tool is reporting "2465psi" then that is a bogus number, and you (most likely) do not have actual pressure in the HPOil system. monitor ICP while cranking....see if it ramps up gradually while cranking..or sits low (sub 300psi) for a while then instantly spikes to "2465"... if...

    coolant leaking from head stud nut

    160/100's with fresh stock headgaskets and arp studs? FWIW, we wouldn't warranty HG failure with 100% nozzles...not on a fresh build. stock gaskets even with studs on a newly rebuilt engine are not reliable above 35psi. take a 100k mile engine, do studs one at a time (bolt out, stud in, etc.)...

    Trans problems

    what gears/tire size are in the truck (thinking tuning/shift point issue) does it shift better/normally w/o the chip?

    Had a thought, regarding IPR

    pressure and aeration would still be constant for allll the injectors..allll the time. the IPR is 'after' the oil being sent to the heads/injectors. My point is....why don't we see guy's replacing individual injectors to 'fix' suspected IPR issues, LOL? in every instance...the injector...

    Had a thought, regarding IPR

    still can't put together how movement of that valve could affect movement of another valve in the system.

    Had a thought, regarding IPR

    I've never understood how it would even be possible for an IPR issue to affect 'an' injector differently from another individual injector... What set of mechanical conditions have to line up to make this even feasible? the IPR is simply a valve.. as far as the HPOil system is concerned...the...

    Oil pressure

    yeah ...as far as (simply) MAKING ICP pressure...you really only need a 'volume' of oil IN the reservoir...it's simply a 'fuel tank' for the HPOP(s) to draw from...nothing more. with a large enough reservoir..the truck would fire and run indefinitely (aside from positive pressure IN the...

    swamps gen 3 pros/cons

    pro's- installs in about 45 minutes, and will run annnny HEUI injector in the universe. con's- idles rough on start up (LPOP can't keep up with volume at cranking rpm)..smooths out in 10-15 seconds.

    coolant leaking from head stud nut

    going from a std bore to a .040 bore would have very, very small effect on compression ratio...like tenths of a point. you could have more of a change by increasing or decreasing your valve recesses (from stock)...among other things.

    coolant leaking from head stud nut

    none of the 7.3L studs go through coolant passages... around them, yes...but no (7.3L) studs are exposed to coolant (unless the block is cracked).

    INFORMANT 6 Monitor for the 7.3L

    (I might be wrong)...but the way it's worded... adjusts TS 6 position chip on screen says to me...that you still run the chip directly in/on the PCM...and this simply replaces the rotary knob, with an interface to adjust your 'existing chip' programs..

    Stock injectors

    because we build them in house to tighter tolerances than mass produced injectors.

    Question for 6speed Lariat truck owners

    we just did an engine build/install for a customer, and added Dynamat thermal barrier on the hood, and Dynamat sound deadening on the firewall. it's super quiet. dynamat # 10455 & #11905's

    Titan Fuel tank opinions?

    we use/sell/install a lot of Titan tanks... definitely pricey, but exceptional quality.

    LPOil pressure or HPOil pressure?

    01 Super Duty lots of white smoke and a heck of a knock

    very possssible... but generally if an exhaust valve weren't opening...you wouldn't get any smoke out the tailpipe (for that particular cylinder), accompanied with popping out the intake/air filter area. if an intake valve weren't opening...then you wouldn't get knocking sound...though you...

    01 Super Duty lots of white smoke and a heck of a knock

    a cracked inj CUP would have your diesel fuel pissing out of your coolant tank... a cracked inj NOZZLE (or poorly seated inj) would have your diesel fuel pissing into your cylinder..effectively hydro-locking it every time that piston comes up to TDC. don't drive the truck, you'll burn up a...

    01 Super Duty lots of white smoke and a heck of a knock

    sounds like you lost an injector nozzle, or possibly (if installed recently) you have an injector not seated properly. look for carbon up above the copper washer, similar to this
