Message: [QUOTE="08BIGRIG, post: 521293, member: 3985"] Yesterday the cab went up and engine was disaccembled and cleaned up.:rockon: We found several parts when taking the truck apart that were bad and need to be replaced. Serveral lifters were tight, main belt pulley tensioner was coming apart, bearings in one of the belt rollers were shot, and headgaskets were blown sky high.LOL I will post up pics for anyone intrested in seeing what blown head gaskets look like as well. Every cylinder on the drivers side gasket was blown and two on the passenger side of the engine as well.:flush: The bolt heater for the cab bolts is my new best friend with this build.:pimp: Also it was way eaisier to just weld in the two front retainers for the front cab bolts that are common to spin when taking out the two bolts near the front bumper for the cab. You can easily get a wire feed welder in there and just put a good bead on the nut so it doesnt go anywhere. One thing that was really cool is there was a rep from one of the larger companys in the industry that was there watching us and he now has a list of many things that they are going to try and make for the 6.4L now after seeing how everything works with these motors. Nice to have someone there to see things first hand and get ideas of how they can be made better or stronger. So today, starting in about a half hour, the motor gos back together and we proceed on. Things are looking really good and all the bad parts we found yesterday will be getting new ones to take their place including all the rockers. Pics and videos to come. [/QUOTE]
