Swapped to an H-pump so I'm selling the P-pump I built for my truck. Ran and drove great, only put around 500 miles on since it was built. Made 411hp 856ftlbs with 5x12s and a stock turbo on my 95, details on the build are below. -Brand new 160 pump elements -Brand new pins and rollers...

Idle is starting to get ironed out, it's much better than before. Drivability is also improving nicely and the truck seems to come into boost much faster. Unfortunately I had a small setback today as you can see in the pic below :doh:

Got the pump bolted on, going to set timing and wire it up tomorrow. If I’m lucky I’ll be able to fire it up this weekend.

Picked up most of the remaining 6.7 parts from Matts Diesel Supply, now it comes down to gaskets, rings, oil pump, and a few other odds and ends then it can go together. Still need to decide on rods, it's either Wagler Street Fighters or Fink Machine unless I come across a good deal on something...

I’ve got one off a 97 12 valve, looking to get $120 shipped

Got the H-pump running on the engine stand but was having some trouble getting idle dialed down, had a few ideas to fix that then the plan was to put it on the truck. Went out for a drive in the 2nd gen and the truck had other plans, tappet cover gasket blew out after a few pulls. Truck has...

Haven't had to really mess with the truck in a while, quite a relief after doing nothing but fighting myself on it the last 2 summers. I still take it out for the occasional boosted launch or some rolling burnouts. We used it to help move about a month ago and towed the boat with it a couple...

Been picking away at the list a little more since it's getting nice out and I'm stuck at home more often. New trans cooler setup is installed and seems to be working great, I can finally put a normal grille support back up front. Took the downpipe out and added the vacuum fitting for the...

Got the new exhaust hung under the truck last weekend Made the new downpipe a few days ago. Not too proud of how it turned out but it let me keep my A/C in place with a little bending and doesn't hit anything else. Going to wrap it this weekend and weld in a new fitting for the exhaust...

Thanks! Made some changes to the blow by setup, the last one worked fine for short bursts but on longer pulls I was still getting oil out of my catch can. Tried running both vent lines to the exhaust venturi and you can see how that went. Just cruising down the highway it was sucking oil...

Before fixing the trans lines I wanted to move the 6.0 cooler, it fit alright behind the stock bumper but it was always a tight fit once I switched to the sport bumper. Had to do some trimming and hammering and even then I cracked a few condensers from rubbing on stuff over time. Picked up a...

Decided to get rid of the fender stack, it was fun watching flames come out at night and made for a great tuning tool to get the truck running clean but it's time for a change. Picked up a 5" exhaust for cheap, just need to get new frame brackets since I got rid of my original ones. Gonna have...

Aside from the grille there was really nothing wrong with the truck after the hill climb, was getting excited to get out to the track and see what I could manage with the FMVB setup and some more seat time. Made it out there in mid April and had a coupe friends join, first run out I managed an...

Truck seemed to be running pretty good and holding together, needed a few small things before I was happy with it 100% but it was close. Pretty far from the original plan at this point but the truck ran good and I was having fun with it. Plan for the winter was a looser torque converter, FMVB...

At some point in the last post I got rid of my trusty lil Fass 95 and upgraded to a Fuelab pump and a high speed check valve on the return side. Kept a drawstraw in the factory fuel module but bumped it up to 5/8" tubing and ran -10AN lines all the way to the pump. Now fuel pressure was a...

By this time the truck was leaking from just about everywhere, compounds had an exhaust leak, and I decided to swap my Suncoast converter back in so it made more sense for the engine to come out for the ppump swap. While I had it out I took my time to redo wiring under the hood and cleaned up...

Once the HE351 went on I didn't have to mess with the truck nearly as much, hood stayed closed for months at a time and it just ran. Plenty of boosted launches in that time and a lot of fun in the snow. Got a night time job as the lab supervisor at school so I took advantage of the machinery...

Had a coupe weeks of school left before summer so I didn't get to do too much aside from cleaning and hair spraying all of my intercooler boots. Did get to do a little messing around and learned to drive the truck a bit better, still had a lot to figure out being new to something with power. One...

Over the course of that past summer the truck was still getting death wobble on a weekly basis despite trying to avoid it. I snapped two track bars in the process, mostly due to a worn taper on the frame side but that was enough to make me invest in a DOR track bar. That didn't stop the...

After making the 3 hour drive home without issue I realized it wasn't the end of the world, still sucked though. Found out it only slipped when I turned the Edge above level 3. Had a spot of rust starting to peek through one of the cab corners so I went ahead and cut it out. Wasn't a fan of...
