1995 F-350 Overhaul

Beau · Aug 22, 2013

Just a few notes on the progress:

I have mikes diesel performance girdle, and if you install it on a 95 you need to grind alot of material off the girdle where the oil pickup is, and also where the dip stick is located. Also your going to have to modify the rear oem Holder and Tig it to the girdle because where his is located is for a Super Duty. Other than that its a very nice unit and fits nicely with my choice of rods.

Also note that I bought a Ford Rebuild kit, and as I was setting up the rings for each piston/cylinder, I noticed that a oil ring had a crack on one side of it. Not sure if anyone else has seen this but, just wanted to say..... CHECK Your RINGS.:cursing: Local Ford is sending me a new set so hope fully Ill have some Pictures up soon.

Also I will Be running Swamps Stage II behivees, they look like a very nice setup and I will post some pics as well when I run through the heads.

One dumps oil into the Oem HPOP, one fills the reservoir with oil, oil pressure sensor, and oil temperature sensor.

Last night I got the rear main seal installed and the pan went a little wild with the silicone on the outside pan rail but oh well, at least salt wont sit there now. I have to get some work done on the jeep so This will be sitting for a week or so, then I can roll the frame back in and start making some progress. I plan on having it running by the first. I still need to get some more stainless piping, the wastegates and BOV, other than that I should have the rest.

That pump looks familiar...

Beau · Oct 8, 2013

I'm sure it does lol, it was yours.

Beau · Nov 1, 2013

:shrug:I would post some new pics, but I keep getting an error message. So anyway, I finished up building my gooseneck mount, and got it mounted on the frame, I have the triples all mounted up and the first two wastegates plumbed in. My buddy stripped the cab and were getting ready to put the cab back on the frame to make to firewall modifications, hopefully this picture deal gets fixed, maybe im doing somthing wrong?
