    Riffraff intake plenums in IH blue..

    I sure like the profile of those. I have Beans and they suck for room in the valley with twin pumps. Just not sure I want to trade off space for intake volume.

    Turck shut off and stranded need ideas.

    Should have added, fuel bowl heater is underhood Maxi fuse #22, 30A. If it's popped, disconnect fuel bowl heater wire then replace fuse.

    Idi turbo vs. Psd

    I wondered how those were holding up. Went up to the 6.4 forum to read up and didn't make it past your window noise thread. LOL

    WTF is this noise? Its driving me nutts

    Wow, never thought I'd be contributing to a 6.4 thread. I think its a SD thing. My E99 does it, my dads 01 does it, and my buddies 2000 did it. Passenger side, cold weather, cross wind. If anybody figures out how to fix it let me know. Driving back and forth to WY last year I about went crazy.

    Idi turbo vs. Psd

    No, you are the one who is misinformed.The kind of torque associated with 700RWHP will melt your drivetrain under a heavy load. Why do you think the differentials, drivelines and trannies on OTR trucks have such large units with huge amounts of fluids? 300RWHP will move anything you can legally...

    5r/6r trans swap

    I never used low range on the road so I couldn't tell you, but I never needed it. I had a ZF5 and 4:10's when I was towing heavy a lot. The only time I used low range was backing up a heavy gooseneck or moving it around on a rough/steep terrain jobsite. If I were planning on doing a lot of heavy...

    5r/6r trans swap

    I like the idea of the Gear vendors, but reading too much lately about them failing for guys towing heavy in the mtns, and with a turned up truck that just seems even more risky. And I don't like the idea they don't work in 4x4. I know people say "well if you're in 4x4 you don't need it", but I...

    5r/6r trans swap

    Yea I already have a built 4r equivalent to a BTS, just looking for an extra gear or two for towing here in the CO mtns. I know HRT was doing an Allison at one time and that might be interesting too. I might end up with a newer 6.4 truck in a year, so this might be a moot point. Otherwise a ZF6...

    Has anyone swapped a 5r or 6r into a 7.3? Pros/Cons?

    Did you test all the fuses? Fuel bowl heater? Getting tach?

    Idi turbo vs. Psd

    Sounds good. :thumbsup: Back to fuel. Before you go crazy, if you do a set of stage I's, get a fuel gauge and monitor pressure. On my OBS I did a mod to the banjo fitting on the fuel pump to remove the restrictive lines. I got new fittings for the heads, had some nice fuel lines made, and then...

    Idi turbo vs. Psd

    The OBS has a regulated return. The SD is a dead head. That's why there are several regulated return kits on the market for the SD. If you want to upgrade your fuel system to a SD electric pump, you may as well just build a fuel system with better fuel lines than the tiny copper lines you have...

    Idi turbo vs. Psd

    SD fuel system would be going backwards IMO. Be better off fabbing your own at this point.

Reliable 325-350+ HP DD/heavy tow that will last 100's of thousands of miles. The OBS turbo is nearly...
