    Lifter preload

    Yes part# sum-plcwin Works slick in the 6.5. It won’t fit in every pr hole but I’m not measuring all 16. I just bought some aftermarket slow bleed lifters, should be here Thursday. I’ll remeasure the preload on those than order my pushrods.

    Here’s a pic of my motor with center mount intake manifolds Quadstar custom intake. Going to use a side mount turbo with twin scroll exhaust flange and t4 turbo. Hopefully I can get the custom exhaust manifolds built by the end of next weekend. It will be left and right bank divided all the...

    Turbo Thread links - aka choosing a turbo

    Does a twin scroll help out any? The exhaust flange is open single scroll. I would think a twin scroll would only benefit a twin scroll exhaust splitting the banks.
