    TP38 to GTP38, GTP38r or D66

    I know that the OBS trucks have a T4 flange but it's easier to say a T4 conversion to a newbie. On an OBS, you're just changing the style of turbo to a normal rotation. Billy T. [email protected]

    TP38 to GTP38, GTP38r or D66

    ^^^^ This by far A T4 set up basically changes the reverse rotation stock turbo to the more common regular rotation turbo. By going to a regular rotation turbo, your choose are plentiful. A T4 conversion is one of those mods that you wondered why you haven't done it sooner. There are some...

    Bore scope through injector cup?

    Yep. I left the radiator in when I had to pull my motor to seal the oil pan. Just removed the fan/fan clutch from the water pump. Billy T. [email protected]

    Advice please

    A new engine will have around 410-420. Was the test done cold? The numbers are all over the place. When the heads were originally done, was the issue still present? Billy T. [email protected]

    Advice please

    Nowadays, most mechanics don't want to diagnosis issues. They jump to conclusions and run with it. Unless you did something stupid (overheat, bad tunes, etc, etc) t is very hard to blow head gaskets on a 7.3. The cylinders have 6 bolts making the seal. You'll kill a stock turbo at 30lbs...

    Fluidampr & M208 Lpop install

    Is that the gasket or oil seal? That's what I did. I also put some ARP thread lube around the crank snout when installing the damper. Billy T. [email protected]

    Fluidampr & M208 Lpop install

    Running the same combo but the o-ring gasket or the seal on the oil pump is starting to leak. When I originally installed the Melling pump (4 years ago), I didn't care for the o-ring gasket. I should've went with my initial thought and went with an OEM gasket. Now, I gotta take everything...

    Help me decide between two trucks

    I was in the same boat. I was going to get a '16 SRW and I'm glad I didn't. The DRW truck hands downs. Do not get the SRW truck. I thought the same thing, I only do a few trips a year My '97 is a SRW and was towing a 34' enclosed GN trailer with race and golf cart. I came in at almost 21k...

    - Slop in the slip yoke on the front shaft, - u-joints frozen in the front axle shafts, - roller bearings shot in the stub shafts, - jack front wheels off the ground and use a large pry to check ball joints, - loose shocks/slop in the shock eyelets - draglink rotation hitting max rotation on...

    Advice please

    Why were the heads removed originally? Drain the oil and pressurize the coolant system and checks if any coolant runs out of the pan. Just FYI, coolant eats the bearing material. Remove the coolant for now and run straight water. Billy T. [email protected]

    Black Magnum 2.0 assembly

    Run the motor with the valve covers off. Look at the oil spouts and see how much oil is coming compared to the others. Billy T. [email protected]

    7.3 surging while cruising

    I would still verify fuel pressure. Contact your tuning person and relay the issue you're having. Probably need to tweak the tune. Who are the tunes from? You can PM if you don't want to make it public. Billy T. [email protected]

    1995 7.3 power steering leak

    Flare fittings don't require o-rings or sealers. Post a pic of the hose end. Did anyone ever change to gear box? How many bolts are holding the top plate on the gear box? Billy T. [email protected]

    7.3 surging while cruising

    Surging usually is contributed to a fueling issue. Could you monitor fuel pressure? Also, remove the chip and see if it surges. My truck was doing a surge thing which was caused by tunes. Billy T. [email protected]
