It’s been super weird for me for the last week or so. Tapatalk was showing post from two ago.

Getting further along.

Once my post goes over a certain number of characters in Tapatalk the post content goes blank. It still contains the words, and I can continue typing carefully and it retains the information if I click submit. I just can't see what I'm writing. Lol. It's been that way a week or so now. When I quote something I'm just about guaranteed to be typing blind.

Baaaaaaaaaaa

 

That explains a lot...

 

Haven't actually typed any blind posts, I quit when it goes blank...

Baaaaaaaaaaa

 

Almost there.

Hope to be firing it up tonight.

Idles and revs up super smooth!

was it already broken in before starting? Sounds like a normal eco idle.

 

Nope, this is the first fire up. I’m very impressed, but the real testing is yet to come and post break-in.

What were instruction provided for break in? IN the other thread they were holding revs (which is common).

What injectors and HPFP are you using?

 

I’m curious too since I never got them

Or use the method hard out the gate with a burn out and WOT pull and your rings will be set just fine, then change oil.

 

Holding revs a a certain rpm ie 2000 was for old flat tappet engines with solid or hydraulic lifters to wear in properly. Not needed on modern engines at all.

Varying rpm to seat rings well is all that's needed.

 

The idea in getting the RPM's up, even while in Park is to add some load to the rings to help them seat. Don't let a brand new engine idle for very long.

 

Looks and sounds good. Glad to see it's up and running.
Once she's broken in and dialed up, I look forward to seeing the numbers it lays down.

 

I took it for a little spin tonight. Runs really well and I couldn't be happier. Just need to be patient while I get through break-in.

 

Got enough time on it for the first oil change. I'll cut open the filter and check things out. So far, so good. No leaks and I gotta say, the FR radiator is one awesome piece. One great benefit is the rad having it's own cap, I didn't have to mess around getting air out of the system. Open the cap up, fill and your pretty much done. The amount of top up, was less than a liter.

Catch can and return fuel system are just waiting on a couple of fittings that are in the mail. Hopefully, I can tie them up by next weekend as I'm back on the road for next week.

 

Oil Change done and out for another drive. The Fumoto Valve and remote mount filter are wicked awesome. Should have done the remote mount a long time ago!

Played with FORScan a bit today. First time and it is pretty straight forward. Now I'm really itching to do the SYNC 3 conversion, but have to find the codes I need to make it work.

I did...
Bambi Mod
Nav use while moving
Turn signals "4" flashes instead of three
Disabled TPMS (Don't have them in these wheels yet)
Added Compass to Instrument Cluster.

 

300 miles on the new motor now. Just did the second oil change and things are looking great.

I have a few tweaks that need to be done with the tune, but we haven't even really started with that yet.

Just did a few small pulls and it's hitting airflow that is equal to about 600hp at the crank. gotta love the cold weather.

 

Glad to see somebody’s build is actually going well with a built motor [emoji23]

How do you disable the TPMS?

Forscan.org

You'll have to check out the spreadsheet and see which code works for your truck. It was very easy to do. Lot's of tutorials on Youtube as well.

 

this thread is not updating again, smh.

Even with this post, all i can see if page 56 and the detailing the paint is the last post.

 

Just like the other threads. It’s stuck on the last post of a page. It’s like it won’t update a new page. Same here. Post 560.

 

Now that I posted a post it let me see the next 10 posts. Funny thing is I already read those 10 post. In fact I posted one comment in those 10. I can see to 570 now.

Edit. Now I posted again and I can see them all. But look at the post numbers. 570 jumps to 596?
also I’ve already see all these posts up to 596.

It's pretty weird. I cleared my cache and now I can see all the posts. I haven't checked via Tapatalk at all.

 

Post 598 sound right?

 

No Sir you are 599 and that makes me 600.

 

Right when things start to get juicy, this forum craps out. Seems to be better in Tapatalk.

@admin

This site has been a let down for weeks. I’ll get an email that tells me there is a new post in the threads that I’m subscribed to. I’ll go to that thread using the link in the email and it won’t show a post for the past 10 days. I know there’s a new post because I can read it in my email. I have been able to make a comment in that thread and log out of the site, log back in and it will catch the thread up. This has been in a variety of threads that I’ve noticed the problem.

 

Still seems OK for me since I cleared my cache.

Truck stuff. I now have everything I need to complete the return fuel system. So when I get back home on Friday, I'll drop the tank and get it finished up and the regulator set.

Went for another blast tonight, this thing is fun.
