[QUOTE="JCart, post: 1507388, member: 1238"] Nice job chaselee, anyone can buy a new 6.7 it takes true commitment to own an OBS! Good on you, keep us posted on how you make out. And BTW aluminum (as in pistons) start to crack, melt, about 1250 degrees F., pre turbo temp. I’ve made it a habit to try not run mine over 1250 pre turbo. Had a 90 7.3 that I turboed and ran it hard all the time, rebuild time had 6 pistons cracked. From then on was a little more cautious, thing is not to panic if you do just ease out a bit drop EGTs down, shift down (don’t lug it down) and keep the rpms up it’s an air pump after all an keeping rpms higher should have her run cooler then lugging it down. Dsnerman94 perhaps forgot this is the OBS forum, I don’t think you’ll be running out of fuel... and should feel improvements over previous set up. j [/QUOTE]
