It was a busy weekend for me. I spent a few hours on Thursday installing a new oil cooler. I had also ordered a Mishimoto aluminum radiator a couple of weeks ago knowing I'd have the system drained. Both installed without a single issue and are functioning as expected to.
The most fun I had was installing an ATS exh. manifold and a BW S362fmw/68/12 which I got from Eric at The Hungry Diesel. This was to complement the injectors which I also got from Eric. After weeks of discussion of current mods, goals, ideas, etc., we settled on a set of 370s in non i/c bodies which would then be honed to approx. 72lpm. Well, they ended up flowing 75lpm. No complaints from me! Those were installed a few weeks ago before heading out to Vegas for Mopars at The Strip. At the time, the truck was boasting an HTT Super 40/35 hybrid with a wastegated 14cm housing. It ran great, felt strong and managed to keep up well and keep temperatures comfortable. It had no problems creating 45-50psi but I never kept it there for any longer than 1-2 seconds and only on rare occasions. It spooled instantly and pulled hard! The truck was keeping up with my friend's truck which had been dyno'd at 445hp. I was happy! Finally.
Even with the previous set of 370s which I had borrowed from Jeremy (STOMP), it ran great. Eric and I came to an agreement about them possibly needing to be re-popped since it seemed to have a small haze at idle. It still ran awesome though.
Jeremy, if you're reading this, those injectors will be heading back to you shortly. :thankyou2:
Yesterday consisted of installed the ATS manifold and S362fmw. Most of you already know how that work goes so I don't have any pictures of the progress of the task; only pictures from when it was completed.
The 62fmw feels damn close to the hybrid. Spool might only be a hair slower than the hybrid. No doubt, since it's a little larger than the hybrid. I beat the snot out of it last night after I installed it. I pushed it hard but not full throttle. I saw 50psi from it and EGTs were only 1000degs. while holding a steady 38-40psi. for a few seconds. This is with a "balls-out" VE built by Giles at Performance Diesel. This truck is nasty now!
I have a G-Tech system that I've been meaning to setup and calibrate for some time now. Once I accomplish that, I'll have an idea of just how strong this ol' half a million mile motor still is.
Eric is an awesome guy and is very easy to deal with. A stand-up guy, very accommodating, goes above and beyond to get you what you need and won't stop until you get what you want. His products are and perform exactly as he describes. Namely, these injectors and the turbo that he recommended. Both have complemented the Giles pump very well so far and I think they'll have no issues in the future. Eric would take care of you if something should though. I have no affiliation with The Hungry Diesel. Just touting how impressed I am with what I've experienced. Thanks, Eric! :rockwoot:
