I just noticed some seeping from the very corner of the driver's side front corner of my cylinder head. I can get it to leak after I beat on it. It doesn't even leak enough to make it down 8 inches from the gasket. It does not pressurize the coolant system. Driving normally or even leaning into...
Looking for some suggestions for a std bore 12v block. I scored some 24v pistons and when I had the rotating assembly balanced they removed material from the bottom of the piston bowl so I am considering them useless for this application. I am thinking of sticking with stock cummins piston but...
Truck is an 06. Smarty udc, bw363, fass150 and 60%. 130k on the truck.
I am stumped guys... This has happened twice while towing. Rail pressure spikes and stays at 26k basically over 1800rpm. It seems like the only actually regulating RP is engine speed. At idle it would go back to normal but...
So I had local machine shop balance my rotating assembly and they ruined my stock 24v pistons. Long story short I need to pick up new pistons. Is there any year that is better than other? Right now, standard bore and JL250hp injectors.
Thanks,
Josh
I have this billet ED s466 .90 ar just sitting in the garage. I was going to use it as a secondary on my 24 P pump mega truck build but I am probably going triples. My daily is my 06 Mega DRW 2wd. I have a built trans with a stock stall converter (Triple disc DPC). Other than an Fass150 and...
Here is my combo so far (crap I have collected over the years)
95 block
Balanced rotating assemble
24v pistons (stock)
215 12mm pump benched (no clue on numbers)
250hp JL injectors
maxspool 2++ cam
ported head with sheet metal intake
I forgot what connector tubes I have laying around but I...
After diagnosing my warped rotors the other day I started tracing a bit of play in the steering. Originally I figured it was the steering shaft or tie rod ends but all of those check out good. Anyone have columns with issues? This is on a 2wd if that matters.
Thanks,

I have some go fast parts coming in the mail and I have been looking into possibly purchasing 100hp injectors for my 06. The truck has 84K on it right now. Would it be worth it to just replace the whole injector or just the nozzles? I have heard that if you just do the nozzles sometimes they are...
Going a different rout. Used billet intermediate shaft from Opie. I would actually like to trade for some 24v parts +cash up or down. I am looking for t4 24v manifold, 24v spring/retainers, 24v headstuds or fass/airdog setup for an 06.
$600obo

I have an ED s475 ( I believe 74/ 83) T4 laying around. I was wondering if it would make good primary over my He351 on my 06. I had done a little searching and I have heard that this is not the best combo. Any thoughts?

So I have been out of the diesel game for a little while. The last transmission I built (47rh) the valve body was around $450 if I remember right. I have been looking on messing around with my 06 and I am seeing valve bodies go for $800. Is that just the going rate? My truck probably puts down...
Would it be worth putting in a 2wd duallie (500hp)? I have one from Opie laying around and was going to throw it in my 06 when I pull it apart otherwise I might just get rid of it.

Doing a body swap on my 95 single cab (old power wagon). Right now it is pretty complete. I have a clear title to go with the cab as well and interior parts. Bed has a welded in roll pan. Cab with fenders, hood , grill and doors 750. Bed with good tailgate 550.
All the pics I have are too big...
I have too many projects, this one is going to be on the backburner for a while if it doesn't sell. Truck is pretty much disassembled right now. I was going to take th body off and brace/clear up the whole chassis. Interior is also taken apart as well.

I am putting together a 24 P pump engine. I bought a built 24 head from a member here and it has about 30 cracks in it (thanks globaltuck1). Some of them large. I am out of money to dump in this truck now. I do however have a friend that is a very talented tig welder and is willing to help me...
John,
I would really appreciate a phone call back. I have left you numerous messages and sent of pm's/emails. There has been very limited comunication ever since I found out that this cylinder head is garbage. Please find 5 minutes out of your day to call me.
Thanks,
Josh
Just picked up an 06 mega cab 3500 2wd drw with an auto. The truck only has 42k on it now. Has been dealer maintained all of its life and its bone stock. Any comon problems with these trucks? I noticed the rear main seems to be leaking a little bit (nothing hitting the ground). How does the...
