Finished for now

[Yehoshua]

I finished the truck for now. Later on I plan on making a few more modifications, but for now I am taking a break and driving her. I have been working on her off and on since August. This was my first engine rebuild and first major auto endeavor. A BIG THANKS to LEROY DEISEL for help making this possible. He provided me with great parts and great advice through this whole process.


Here is what I did:


Cylinders bored 30 over

New oil pump and shaft

New felpro gaskets

New plugs

New 1000watt block heater

New reduced height mahle pistons

New lifters

New SCAT crankshaft

New camshaft

New Optimizer cylinder heads

New timing chain and timing gear

New braided stainless oil pressure lines

New fuel pump gear

New bosch injectors

New FSU with sock removed

Lift pump relay harness

Remote Fuel filter

New walbro FRC-10 lift pump

New OPS

New S&B intake

F-Vin upper air plenum

New Flo-Pro crossover pipe and exhaust

Heath diesel ECM and turbomaster

Rubber Fuel hose from tank and back

New radiator hoses

New Power steering pump

New Radiator



I am probably forgetting some things but this is what comes to my mind as of right now. Once again thanks Leroy for the great parts and great service, I am truly thankful.


The video is short because I only had half of the exhaust on so I had my wife turn on the fan to blow some of the smoke out of the garage so she stopped video taping.

Great! Finally get to put a face to the voice. That thing fired up quick and sounded good. Hows it running now after a few days?

Why stop now? Just kidding that sounds like a lot of freshening up and I know its hard to stem the bleeding wallet when doing all that work.

Hope the truck runs great for a long time.
