    6.6 duramax

    Ya, that’s how the guys that welded waterline for us found their pinholes but how can I pressurize the tank? Unless I make something or put a modified sender in with a air port for the fuel pickup.

    6.6 duramax

    I bought the summit sump. Does anyone have a good way to check for leaks before filling with diesel? I was trying to think of a way to pressurize it with air or maybe just filling it full of water, but I have heard that diesel is better at finding holes in your welds.

    6.6 duramax

    What is everyone’s feelings on a sump for the blazer tank? I have read where some people complain about loss of fuel when down to a 1/4 tank. I am debating on one of these two. Or possibly doing something with a small round one but having the pickup tube tie in from the top.

    6.6 duramax

    What sending unit is going to work for this swap? It looks like I need a 1/2 inch feed and 3/8ths return. I will be using a 31 galling blazer tank and would like to have another port for my saddle tanks to be able to feed into the blazer tank.

    6.6 duramax

    Does anyone have experience with running a dry sump setup in a duramax? I am looking into this to see if I can get away with less of a lift if I go dry sump.

    6.6 duramax

    Received all of the parts from dmaxswaps on Wednesday, they didn’t charge me any extra to fix the wires that had the sheathing missing which was nice. Still waiting on the engine mounts from precision fabrication.

    6.6 duramax

    Removed the top engine harness so it can be sent to dmaxswaps for them to clean it up and remove unnecessary items, along with fixing the ones that lkq stripped the sheathing from. I am sure that this is going to end up costing me a hundred bucks just to fix all the wires they messed up.

    6.6 duramax

    Word to the wise make sure you get a complete harness, TCM, ECM, from the donor cause it is going to save you a chunk of change. Also tunes for the whole standalone gig aren’t cheap. At this point I see why guys say the three wire 12 valve is the way to go, I could have bought a remanufactured...

    Chevy 6.0 with 4l80e

    Everything was purchased from just Chevy trucks. 2003 6.0 ls runs great 40lbs hot is what there build sheet states. 4l80e 4wd complete standalone harness with the pedal. I would like to get 4,000 plus whatever shipping is, I am only selling because I am going with a duramax instead.

    6.6 duramax

    Idk if you can, to be honest I didn’t look into much because I figured I was going to need new springs to make up for the additional weight of the duramax. These ones are inverted almost with the tiny 6.0 ls sitting on them.

    6.6 duramax

    Quick update for anyone thinking about doing this, you have to sport a minimum of a four inch lift according to Robert with precision fabrication. Soooo I guess my new front springs are no longer going to be used along with my itty bitty 31 inch tires. This is going to get expensive quick. Can...

    Diesel muffler??

    So it looks like Donaldson mufflers are a good option. Does anyone have a lead on a good 4 inch universal stainless kit? Or do I need to piece it together?

    6.6 duramax

    Well the beast is here. I ordered the mounting kit from precision fabrication. Still trying to figure out what is needed for the radiator and intercooler for maximum cooling ability but also being able to fit in the square. the intake from the duramax sits way to damn high it looks like so I...

    What is your plan for the radiator and intercooler? I saw that you said you held onto the core support from the dodge, are you going to graft that stuff in?

    6.6 duramax

    Does anyone know what the best options for radiator/ intercooler is for our trucks? the stock duramax radiator looks to be to tall. According to what I have found they are almost 25 inches tall where a stock radiator for a square looks to be 19 inches tall.

    Diesel muffler??

    I’m pretty sure the stock exhaust for an lbz is 3.5 inch, the Down pipe is three inch though I think. From what I have read on the great inter webs people say a four inch is good for most power mods that a guy would do unless you are going to go to huge power outputs. If it was three inch I...

    12valve/nv4500 into 79’ K30

    5,600 bucks for a 12 valve that seems outrageous for an old loud diesel. But 60 hours worth of labor seems pretty reasonable to get all of that done.

    Diesel muffler??

    So I am in the process of searching for exhaust components for a duramax motor I purchased and have a question. does anyone make a true muffler for a 4inch exhaust? I can find tons of glass pack type things but not much info on mufflers. I am not wanting to blow black smoke or have some loud...

    Spi epoxy primer

    Quick question my cab was coated with spi epoxy primer a year ago and I am getting ready to do the body filler, can I just scuff the old epoxy and then coat with rage body filler? Or do I need to scuff the epoxy and then shoot a coat of epoxy again?
