You guys got a thing for leaving the fan attached....lol.
Good luck with the build!
i hope you are kidding about the hood stack! dang cummins guys!
If youre luck is so bad, then id make sure you didnt get a 53 block on the cummins LOL
Good luck man, this is looking like a great build.
Looking good so far Matt, I was surprised to see that the 6.0 treated you as well as it did as long as you had it!
Any head work getting done while its at the machine shop, like maybe o rings or fire rings so you can confidently outfit the truck with two turbos down the road?
I thought i had bad luck... Cant wait to see it done. Its gonna be sweet.
youve got just about as bad of luck as I do with trucks.
I know the feeling, I hope this goes and runs well for you.
You shouldnt need o-rings or fire rings unless you plan on being over 60psi regularly. Ive also read about daily driver reliability issue with fire rings. If not installed perfectly, the head cycles of daily driving causes them to fail over time.
Yeah Ive heard that too, my 12v that was in my old 250 had fire rings and did fine but yeah after discussing it with a couple people I agree that I wont be needing fire rings either.
I ordered my 110# valve springs yesterday and then just studs, Im considering a mild street cam as well so its there for when I do compounds down the road but havent made a final decision yet, I got an ATI dampener as well.
Machine is saying they are probably gonna take the block .020 over as well so looks like im not technically deleting a 6.0 from the truck LOL
It's a better 6.0 this time though LOL
