On your flange, that arched section connecting to the next port almost looks as if it might make things harder to work around the GP's. wonder if once the headers are done, you could cut each section out so each port is separated? the flange is good n flat in those area so you could also...

@Big T measure the diameter on the groves of the pulley, those two looked the same in your photo. the fans should be the same between the CS-130 and the 144 so you could swap them too. and iirc there should have been a spacer on the cs-130 that you can use for it as well.

Mine has been doing the same thing. maybe they opened up for larger file sizes here in the forums recently?

to check timing, an easy way is to look on the passenger side of the IP for a long lever that runs from the throttle shaft down to the bottom of the IP to a plunger which it pushes on at the throttle is pressed. you will need a flash light to see the plunger at the bottom of the IP on that...

follow that yellow wire back into the harness and see where it goes. you should find a thermostatic switch similar to a coolant temp sender threaded into a water jacket. there will be two wires connected to it, one is that yellow wire, the other should be a 12v+ coming from the ignition...

be sure you get the copper washers out of the head if they are not stuck to the injectors when removing. that double spade contact must have broken off from something in that area. follow the wires back and see where each one goes. it could have been a ground for something or something...

Nice! I noticed you have the CDR bung opening for the valve cover on the drivers side, are you running it on that side, running dual CDR's, or making provisions for a centrifuge setup?

https://www.amazon.com/OTC-5060-Detroit-Diesel-Injector/dp/B002Y0B7AQ 30mm 12 point socket. this one has the provisions inside to keep from breaking off the return line bibs.

If I did that I wouldn't be able to keep my pooch off from it LOL

taking the wider tires for the dually will fit, but spacers might be needed for the rears. the main thing is you don't want the side walls to be able to touch when the truck is loaded. just simply mounted with the truck's weight is not enough to judge if they will be ok or not. also if one...

I would say start at the stock spec for factory turbo, 2150. then go from there. have your old ones tested and see where they are at.

I swapped them out on the 6.2 block I have on the stand without any issues. they fit just fine. remember it's only a 1/4" height difference. not much.

the main issue with side posts is corrosion that gets in there and you can't see it especially with the factory GM cables that have the boot over them. also with the little spacer that allows double cables. dis-similar metals cause a chemical reaction, that happens with happens as well with...

the dual post is a good option too! using both on each battery is good for better connections!

before you install though, get you a roll of the return hose. your gonna want to replace all of that small hose. there are kits that are pre-cut at the auto parts, but you can also get a roll of the stuff too. I used the pre-cut kit on my 95, I will have to look up the part number if you...

the main thing on balancing them is making sure one isn't way out of whack, but with new old stock, it's probably unlikely that will happen. if you install and your smoking on the first startup diminishes to only having just a little. you know you've found the main cause. meanwhile have...

I just thought about it now, but what about electro-plating? there are options there like copper, nickle and what not. it's takes time but it's something most can do at home. I don't think the plating will come off from the inside of the line when done, but silicone rubber plugs can be...

it used to be that way, but nowadays not so much. being those are new old stock, it's possible they were tested. They will. it's rare these days to find one that needs the coarse thread injectors. pull the #1 out and see / compare. just be careful with the return lines and barbs so you...

as far as it being protected. yes and no... every circuit in the cab is protected by a fuse, but some of the leads coming off that block go direct to other things like the alternator and whatnot. on most rigs of this age, it's always recommended to replace the battery cables with heavy...

You can always install a 100 amp breaker similar to the ones used on car stereo amps. something that is re-settable and will mount on the firewall next to the distro block. I second the notion to run a heavier gauge wire direct from the battery also. GM is known for using wires that are...
