bring it all back for us to learn!

Second part of the buyer beware... ! The seller advertised this truck as having detroit lockers front and rear! When I got into the diffs, I found that we had a pair of power-loks front and rear :bang:








:thumbdown
yeah, beware. i had a friend bought a built cherokee to do some rock crawlin. supposedly had a detroit out front. got to the first set of rocks and uh oh, no locker in the front. boy was he pissed!

Garrett
that is very nice! its going to be one sweet rig when done.

Garrett
with an s475 under a hybrid you should run ddp4s with an external wastegate.

Garrett
thats a nice sized charger. good thing you are building a stout drivetrain.

Garrett
nice! what are you doing for fueling mods on that pump?

Garrett
131s with 181s. :thumbsup

going to do holders and lines?

Garrett
Been looking at lines.... whats the scoop with the holders?

:happymugs
if you go bigger lines you need bigger holders as well. you're on compD, ask smokem.

Garrett
The word is that I don't need them with single feed injectors.... but some stainless lines sure will look good!

:happymugs
there ya go then. you wouldnt need dual feed unless you go 5x.016 too. you're not going to fuel that much right?

Garrett
Looks like I'm getting some 5 x.014... we'll see were that gets me. Should be good for at least 650HP. Hopefully!

:happymugs
nice, im aiming for 600+on fuel so we'll see where yours gets and maybe i can do something similar.

Garrett
:gaah i am so jealous!

Garrett
OK Guys...

I'll wait to post pics of the stuff that came from Haisley Machine today...

Tomorrow.... the trans comes back out for some upgrades.

:happymugs
:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup


Garrett
isnt that 74 a little large for a top charger?

Garrett
looks good to me.

Garrett :thumbsup
remote mount the oil filter?

Garrett
Ya, I was thinking about doing a remote mount anyway, but it looks like the adapter and lines will even be in the way.

Realistically... can I get 650+ hp on a single with a 5spd and still be able to pull a trailer now and then without blacking out two lanes of highway..... :D

:happymugs
what turbo? a 64 should get you there. run a smaller exhaust housing with an external gate.

Garrett
nice clutch!!

Garrett
little by little its coming together.

Garrett
is that an oil filter relocate plate?

Garrett
Yes that would be it.... Cummins part #3284170. I'm looking into running that with a Amsoil remote bypass filter set up.

:happymugs
very nice, i better put that on my list.
