    SXE Heavy Tow Videos

    Was wondering if we could create a thread that consolidates all of the videos posted in the various turbo threads of guys towing heavy with the new SXE turbos. It would be a nice way to sell people on how game changing these turbos can be. There are so many people out there, including guys...

    Injection numbers feedback

    My buddy has been messing around with this truck for a while and it keeps butting him in the rear. I finally convinced him to drop it off at my house so I can hook the monitor up to it and see what's going on. It was a little cold today, so could not get it I put to a real good temp on my way...

    Fuel Pressure Gauge

    Trying to get a mechanical gauge plumbed into my buddy's ex and just wonder where is the best place to tap into. Also, what fittings are needed to go to npt. On my 7.3, I just bought an o-ring type fitting to npt that threaded into a plugged port on the filter housing. Not sure if the 6.0 has...

    Battery cables

    Thinking about getting my own crimper and making my own cables. Thinking 3/0 on the battery to starter cable and 2/0 on everything else or just 2/0 for everything. On the other hand I could get all new oem cables for ~$150. This is the crimper I was thinking about getting along with these...

    I am about to replace all of my tie rods and adjustment sleeves (if needed). Was originally thinking about going with Moog, but after reading some threads I'm thinking about spending the extra money and going with XRF. Looking for some opinions here. I found one place that sells the whole kit...

    Bad ICP sensor with no CEL?

    Is it possible to have a bad ICP sensor with now CEL? Truck runs fine for a few miles, then starts missing and then gradually dies. I was thinking it was the fuel pump/filter (hfcm). I would think it would throw a CEL after a while if it doesn't achieve anew acceptable icp relative to...

    Best place for parts

    Trying to help a friend on a 6.0 EX. He is completely going through the top end and has had some trouble with one of the site sponsors on here.

    Hydra

    I finally got around to installing my Hydra with GH tunes last weekend. So far I love driving in the Street Muscle tune (80 to 100hp increase) as long as I don't get on it too hard and get the revs up too high. It has definitely revealed some weaknesses on the oil side though. I don't want to...

    Advice on potential project trucks

    http://richmond.craigslist.org/hvo/5449803521.html Wondering what you guys think about this as a project/flip truck. Not sure if I would actually do the Cummins swap or just get the 6.oh straight. I've been somewhat curious about the 6.0's for a while. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

    My starter is starting to make all kinds of clunking noises. This morning it we old not stay engaged long enough to start the truck. Did a little bit of research and some people say to go with the planetary gear reduction starters and other folks like the db brand. I'm thinking the gear...

    Coolant filter

    Changed my coolant the other day to elc and was thinking about the merits of a coolant filter after flushing the system. What is the general concensus? I was just going to diy it for half the cost with a wix base, a few fittings and some heater hose. Btw, I was without my truck during the...

    Hydra Purchase

    Getting ready to purchase a Hydra, but was also considering getting one from GH so I could pick up some of their files (extra $110) to compare to PHP's. I have a ZF-6 and the truck is stock, so I don't know how different their equivalent tunes will really be. I'd rather use the extra money to...
