Deranged rebuild, the next chapter

Would it be possible to eliminate the LPOP and use a pump from a dry sump setup. Would that avoid this sort of carnage

Ouch! Did it do any damage to the crank or can you get by just putting a cover and pump on it?

Better check the HPOP and HPOP reservoir for shrapnel

THAT IS CRAZY, HOPE YALL DONT FIND ANYTHING ELSE HURT!

 

[Cutting-Edge Diesel]

It's happened 3 times before when we were still running the ATI not that crazy lol

Man, that really sucks!!! Hopefully a new LPOP and cover along with a good flush will get you back running. The truck has been doing so well too. I really wanna see 9's outta this truck.

It has already hit 9s

9.8 in Denver

This is pretty common for the higher horsepower trucks running those dampners though isn't it? Well, maybe not common, but certainly not unheard of. And you guys are probably required to run an approved dampner no? I remember Ellerton complaining about them back in the day.

The thing can run 9s at altitude!

Yep we have done this several times on high oil demand 6.0's adds more lines and bs but makes for a more reliable setup with a ton of low pressure oil.

I have zero room for somthing like that lol. I already have about 1/4" clearance between the fan motor and the damper

He is required to run one anything better than 9.99 et I believe. There was an issue with the Fluidampr tearing up LPOP gears, which is why people stopped running them. Haven't seen or heard much about the ATI causing issues though...

 

[Cutting-Edge Diesel]

Yup is required for 9.99

I think I'm going to put the stock one on there and back up my 9.8 pass and try to better it some then try and figure somthing out with the damper later

Have you tried rebalancing the crank with the balancer? Or even tried a different ATI balancer?

 

[Hotrodtractor]

Call ATI and discuss.

As long as the crank was balanced before, and the ATI dampner was balanced before, and assembled correctly, it shouldn't have been an issue. At least, in theory. We do much larger assemblies here and we balanced parts only at times without issues.
