Hey guys. So i recently rebuilt the top end of my 07 6.0 completely due to head gaskets. Rebuilt heads, studs, new oil cooler, stc updated fitting. All new seals, 190/100 warren injectors, driven diesel fuel regulated return w/bowl ******, fass 125gph pump, barder stage2 (64.7x92x66), custom intake (partial stock), mishimoto boost tubes, and some other odds and ends.
Anyway today was start up day. Was getting everything buttoned up and finished the fuel supply line to the regulator. Had a minor leak from a banjo bolt missing a copper washer. No sweat. Got down to charging the batteries to have enough power to start the truck up from being dry as a bone. And the trucks cranking and building oil pressure no problem. I'm getting fuel to the front of the heads but doesn't seem to be either returning through the other side or flowing correctly. Not too sure yet. On top of that the fuel regulator pressure gauge isn't showing any pressure being built. Found out tonight I do need to be running a bigger fuel pressure regulator spring(75psi) to make sure the fass pump can keep up with the wanted 60-65psi.
So what it comes down to is what are y'alls opinions on this? Has anyone had the same experience or issue? I'm kinda stumped here and don't know what to do. Had a long day today trying to get her finished up but called it quits for the night. Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks, Earl
