    How to DIY

    Awesome.:thanks Thank you for that. I need to see what fittings I actually have so I can make a run to the parts store and get that tee and clamps. If all goes well I can make this a long night and have it up and running. If it took you 2.5 hours it will take me 4.5 :)...I am a really slow...

    How to DIY

    Perfect. Glad someone did that. If I can find a tap and die set tomorrow I will be all over that. Well that and some paint. They didn't make the paint anymore so I need to find something very close in town I guess. So if you drill a 11/32 whole you can use a 3/8 tap correct. Is that kinda a...

    DIY intake

    Gotcha, But for the unmodded fuel injector "stock" you can push more it sounds like. I agree that a quicker squirt and 140-160 is a much better option. But I'm not going to get upgraded injectors that I know of. I know how the addictions go though...but I have to finish my cummins 56...

    DIY intake

    Thanks that was some very good reading. I understand everything that was mentioned but I do have one question and maybe my understanding of Thermal Dynamics is missing a key theory. Why would guys not be going for the Split Shots if they can deliver more fuel. You mention single shots...

    Will do Here is another question. I was just reading on another post about split shot injectors as when I was talking with someone back in Portland he thought I had them as my truck sounded so quiet. He didn't know how to check though. I just went out and looked for spaceship enterprise...

    Has Anyone Added a Second Alternator?

    What do you need that many amps for? I know there is a company out there that makes a 220 amp for the duramax...just saw it in DP mag, so I assume there is something out there for the PSD. If I remember right the stock ones are around 120 amps.

    block heaters

    Not ALL Fords have them. I don't unfortunetly. I swear I've looked 3 or 4 times. Maybe I just can't see the part of the block above the starter where it plugs in. Maybe I'll take a look outside in the dark with the flashlight like TX and look on the drivers side, but I've been down there...

    Biodiesel banned in Texas?!?!??!?!

    Bunch of Bull Pucky if you ask me. Texas imagine that....how much of our US supplied oil comes from the region? Correlation I think so. I know it is how our country runs but it is sad when something like this happens.

    55 F-100 Diesel Conversion????

    Progress Well I got approval from the wife the other day. She isn't fond on the whole diesel thing as she thinks it is going to be a lot of work but that is the whole point. She loves the classics and remembers lots of good times together in highschool with my 53 so it was an easy sale. I've...

    president showing more support

    It is great to talk about it. To see something done about it is a different story all together. I doubt anything will be done in the next two years in any significant amount. But these things do take time. His hands are a little full right now. No offense as he is my BOSS :hail the cheif
