My 7.3 build

[Derek@Vision Diesel]

There are things out there that the Stage 2 can't run. Not everything is on the internet.

Very true...

Is anyone running the stage 3? Thats a nasty pump, helluva single!

I thought the Stage 2 could handle up to 400/400's :shrug:

I seen he was going with compounds so I assume he'll have plenty of fuel but still, that's a lot of farking fuel.

Sick build, Ill be watching.

 

[Homesteader]

Looks like and awsome project. 4x4 conversion looks awsome also. Good louck on your build.

 

[BIGISLAND7.3]

Cant wait to see this when its done!, looks like a sick setup!

 

[David S.]

man I'm jealous, looking killer. You got a timeline to get everything done?

There is more to injection oil requirements than knowing the total capacity and the injector tip size. Capacity is unimportant to the instantaneous oil flow requirement - the tip does regulate the flow rate, but it is not the only item in the injector to do so. For instance - last fall I was present while a set of injectors were put together that picked up 20cc in a 1000 count test at the 2ms injection window without changing tips or capacity. 20cc of fuel equates to 100cc of oil on a hybrid injector.

nice build, but i have to ask... why wouldnt you a RSK and use the superduty springs when your doing the work of the suspension swap?

I'm assuming he went with the 05 an up axles because the coils ride a lil nicer than leaf springs, plus better brakes, and I could be wrong but I think you also get a tighter turning radius from the newer axle as well.

Very nice job so far! I'm looking forward to seeing the rest come together, especially the twins. I'll go out on a limb and guess that it will be getting intercooled?

Im not sure what your looking at but there's no coil in any of the suspension pictures. and if you look at the finished suspension swap it still has teh shackles in the front of the spring....

Clean truck and excited to see your build. More pictures please.

Yea he went from 2WD to 4WD using OBS Dana 60 suspension. It was definitely the easiest way, but I agree with Short Bus, there was never a better time to do a RSK at minimum, and with everything that far torn down would have been the perfect time to fab up brackets to use SD springs.

I thought about it doing the rsk kit but i just didnt want my bumper stuck way out in the front. I know im gonna sacrifice ride but i wanted to keep the front as close to oringinal. I fi dont like it i might just build a custum 4 link front end but im pretty happy with the way it turned out. I will try to get some more pictures up within the next week.

Bingo for now a stage 2 could handle the injecters but hopefully in the spring is when i get to really test the pump.

My dumba$$ jus saw the newer rims and assumed it was coils.

 

[Nasty7.3]

What size injectors will you be running for now?

 

[njjeep]

any progress?

Yeah im working on it right now il get some pics up this week.
