2000 F350 - Too Much Torque!!!
Truck is the one in my sig.
I just put the injectors in about a week ago. The truck now makes so much torque the motor is twisting and the serpentine belt is now hitting the upper radiator hose under a hard launch. I have had the hose blow off once and I have been through 3 belts since the injector install. When the belt his the hose it pushes it back and the pulleys and shaves the back 2 ribs off the belt. Motor mounts are STOCK but only have about 25k miles on them. Has anyone ran into this problem before. Do I need some better/heavier motor mounts? Do I need to chain it? I know there are a lot of guys running the same combo as me (38r and stage 3s) so if any of you guys could chime in that would be awesome. Thanks! |
:bow:
LOL Put a Cummins in it so you don't make so much gosh darn power! |

I think there is a company that makes a re route for the top radiator hose that goes over the belt instead of through it. That might give you enough clearance. And it allows you to change your belt without having to remove the top radiator hose. All of that being said, I think you better start looking into the root problem. Something ain't right. :ford: Just too much stinkin' Ferd powah... :ft: :stab: |

The NAPA belt will be a Gates so you can get the same belt at Oreillys or advance also.. |
:drive:screw the mounts weld the motor in there solid to harness all that mad power stroke TORQUE!!
|
Alrighty got a new belt, new hose, and new motor mounts (from the dealer).
Hopefully this will take care of the problem |
What kind of torque will a 7.3 with that set up make to the wheels? I never pay enough attention to pstroke power numbers(at least 7.3s and 6.0s)

Havent ever had it on the dyno but Ive heard from other people its 1100-1200
|
Advance auto motor mounts LOL :hehe: LOL :hehe: LOL :hehe: If you haven't had the truck on a dyno or if you don't have a time slip there's no point in making up power numbers.

I didnt get advance auto motor mounts. And the numbers I posted were from people I have talked to who have the same combo and have dynoed there truck. I was trying to answer the question to the best of my knowledge. I didnt make up any numbers that is why I have stated that the numbers were from other people I have talked to. I never gave a number for my truck because I havent ran it or dynoed it yet.

How come all the power stories about jokers end up being just that...

wow this was a good laugh :D

Pretty close to my setup. Im just running a little faster nozzle. Torque numbers should be around 900 to 1000lbs. Mine made just over 5o0hp. I have no problems with the motor moving. Still on my stock motor mounts. Ive never seen any that needed changing.

My 91 7.3 idi with a twin parralell setup ounce put a hole right through my hood, the tq was so massive. It was a stick shift also and my girl was riding shot gun when I got on it in 4th gear the shifter broke her hymen
