one2nine's build thread

one2nine · Mar 29, 2013

Slight set back at the moment. I'm tracking down an sct for eric to tune on at the moment and I realized I'm minus the elbow that connects the turbo discharge to the hot side pipe. Waiting to hear back from mike at no limits and mpd. Have my fuel block and regulator shipping and ordering the turbo either today or monday. Hopefully all falls into place so I can build at the end of the month.

Turbo is ordered and will take a few days for it to be built/polished. Final specs on it are 80/87/0.9 AR with a billet compressor wheel and race cover. Should be pretty mean. MPD has the pipe I need, but waiting to hear back from IDP about a tuner before I do anything else.

i've seen some black at spool time, but that takes the cake.

lol you sure a jet plane didn't crash and that's from the fire? Numidia and bedford are the same weekend so if all goes as planned I'll be at both.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it would be a wise idea to strap the front end down this year lol

Beans71086 · Mar 29, 2013

Depends, are you running suspension stops in the back?

one2nine · Mar 29, 2013

no. I was debating it, but for it still seeing some DD time I didn't want to go with a stopped suspension. Just running HD bars from newton. I'm more worried about the front end hop than anything.

Beans71086 · Mar 29, 2013

It won't always stop the hop, both times I strapped my it hopped. I was solid in the rear and strapped in the front.

Might want to go 3 link or 4 link then.

surprisingly I didn't really get any hop at all last year but I wasn't in particular hammering it til the end. Once they put every diesel in the same class it wasn't worth staying in the throttle at the end to compete with those guys.

4-link it and no more worries

one2nine · Mar 29, 2013

I'm pretty sure if I do anything else to the truck for a while wifey will kill me. It'll have one someday but I just don't know when

one2nine · Apr 3, 2013

Well I got a livewire tracked down so I'm good to go in that aspect. Probably going to throw some diesel site boots on the build list as well. Got my fuel block and regulator in the other day. Going to make a run up to the Parker store in a few days to get some fittings and hose. Waiting to hear back from mpd about the pipe still. Only other thing I can think that I might order are new belt tensioners and new lines off of the hpfp. May as well change them while I'm in there.

One2nine-

awesome build sheet and she seems like it's gunna be a monster!!!
With your low mileage your pistons will probably be fine, but it wouldn't hurt to do the IH, I'm at 115k and sitting with a cracked piston due to oil ingestion from blown turbos. Now I'm kickin myself for not doing a full build when my truck was apart last year....
I definitely recommend the heads come off for new gaskets and decking them. But I definitely feel you on the money part!
Keep updatin I'm exciting to see it built!

one2nine · Apr 3, 2013

If time and the budget would allow for it at the moment I would. As better head upgrades come about I have a feeling the cab will be off again for another round of mods. I figure if the gaskets have a good bite on them now they should good to stud... Should be

Your sticking with stock pistons?!

For now yes. Ih's will be in the future. Seeing how most of the cracks are in the back pistons I'm hoping added air flow from the ported intake will help prevent that. Not to mention there are a fair amount of high hp 6.4s still on stocks so I'm hoping ill be ok until the next round of building.
