What is a good choice for a turbo blanket? This came up in a thread @n8in8or posted - tz31847-g3. Still a good choice for a HX35/40? Should I be covering the adapter pipe also out of the back of the turbo, to the downpipe? I don't want to take a chance of melting my hood and there is no...

Well, mine has a crush washer now. If anyone wonders, the split side goes toward the bolt head. This is from referencing the bolt in the adapter from the HMMWV adapter.

Will this problem likely go away with a remanned transmission?

The rat run isn't structural. It is so you have a place to walk or stand if ever needed for when you might need to be above the ceiling.

Do you have any rat runs above the ceiling? They make it easier for doing any sort of maintenance or for when you run lights, etc. I see you have your electric ran up there, but just in case. You can lay a 2x6 or 2x8 on its side between the trusses and it gives you a place to walk. Screw...

And once the last screw is in, it won't need painted Nice fixture. Very creative.

Where does the crush washer go? I had my adapter on and off a few times and have no memory of it.

Nice! Will you run a vertical post or two in an area where you can set really heavy things? Near the area where a vise would be for example. ...or get really slick and make up a couple fold down legs that can swing down when needed but are up out of the way otherwise.

Timing gears offer a significantly different sound. This is going to take some getting used to.

I drove it. That's all. First time since about August 2022.

Has anyone used this on the dipstick in our engines? https://www.blackstone-labs.com/products/vacuum-pump/

I'm excited for you. You are going to enjoy the extra space.

Fluid Film is your friend if you plan to drive it in the salt. Welcome to the forum!

I think if the build wasn't done by a well known reputable builder, he is going to have a very hard time selling for that kind of money. If by a recognized name on here or a couple other forums and he could prove what was done, then they might fetch a reasonable price.

If it is red, doesn't that make it a P400?

Are you sure that isn't the "Sidewinder" you're referring to rather than "Stinger"? @Husker6.5

I am not sure the 3" is correct for my 2-1/2" downpipe. Need to research more I guess.

I am indeed using stock manifolds. The Banks Stinger system I mentioned is the downpipe and rearward, not the manifolds.

I found this adapter for this turbo swap. https://rudysdiesel.com/i-30522361-rudys-v-band-holset-hx35-turbo-direct-pipe-adapter-for-gm-6-5l-turbo-diesel.html?q=6.5+holset What other parts will be necessary? Supply hose connector? Drain adapter of some sort? I have a 2-1/2" downpipe I...

When I was little, dad had a cub mower and my uncle put it in gear for me to let me drive it around the yard. I pulled up to the shop to get off when I was done, thinking the clutch pedal I had been riding the whole time was the gas pedal, so naturally, I let off of it when it was time to stop...
