Message: [QUOTE="TooMuch03, post: 632846, member: 5993"] I figured it is time for me to start a build thread here. I know there are plenty of guys who have experience with builds like what I have planned, so I am looking forward to all your input. I have been acquiring parts and putting together my plan of attack for about 6 months now. Before starting this build the truck was running a set of Industrial Injection 155/100s (which were supposedly 190/75s lol) and a powermax turbo with the typical supporting mods, including exhaust, intake, etc. The truck also has ported and polished heads and an Elite Stage 1 cam. Here she is: [ATTACH=full]106927[/ATTACH] This past spring, I broke the tail housing off my elite comp tranny, so I had it rebuilt with a new torque converter by Automatic Transmission Design, which is still under warranty and should hold up for now. [ATTACH=full]106928[/ATTACH] On to the fun part. I took my 155/100s up to Sheldon at Renegade Diesel, and he built me a set of 255/150s. I installed the injectors and have put about 3000 miles on them without issue, obviously running a very conservative tune to maintain ICP, until more oil is available. The powermax will be ditching in favor of a bit more air, in the form of compounds. The high pressure will be a 64/71/.70 T3, courtesy of Chris (Strokin6L), and the low pressure will be an s480/96/1.32 that is used, but I got a smoking deal on. Naturally, I will be using a wastegate. I am toying with the idea of stepping up to a larger low pressure, possibly and S482 or 483 after I get everything put together and running again. At this point, almost all of the parts I need have arrived, and I will start getting the pedestals put together this weekend. Some more pics for fun: [ATTACH=full]106929[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]106930[/ATTACH] This is the 64mm, which I ran as a single for a little bit, on a pedestal I threw together, just so the powermax could go to its new home [ATTACH=full]106931[/ATTACH] Now I am no master fabricator, and I do not have a fancy shop, or even a shop at all. I have enlisted the help of a good friend who is a welder by trade, and most of the work will be done in the driveway, or my living room [ATTACH=full]106932[/ATTACH] Hope you guys enjoy, and of course, I am open to any and all input and advice.
