@admin, Recent posts aren't showing up in my thread again. Can you please resolve.

 

And I'm back to the last visible post being #560 from 12-14

 

Me too. Back to 560.

 

Ohh, I can see all the way up to the 31st now....

Came home from work, and I can see all the posts still.

 

So messed up, I can see all the posts now on my PC. I know it's a "free" service, but it's frustrating when the forum doesn't work right.

 

Truck Stuff Post.

I sold some parts locally, so I bought a Fuel Pressure Gauge, Boost/Vac Gauge and a pillar Mount. Should have it all in the next 10 days or so.

 

Nice job on hooking up the fuel system!! Worked out well.

 

Dual catch can install complete. I had to wait for a fitting to tap into the passenger side intake tube.

I had a catch can for months and didn't get a thing out of it. I caught more in the intercooler than anything. Maybe you'll have better luck(?) than me ?

 

What can did you have? My Full Race was like that.

Baaaaaaaaaaa

 

Upr mega can. I have to post it for sale here but I do know my calves were spotless before the can because @JerryTX sent me pictures

 

The truck has been running really well. Enough miles on it to kick up the tune another notch and see how it does. @RMB_Ryan has given me permission to up the shift points and rev limiter.

 

To the moon!

 

<-- kicks a can down the road...

 

Get on it!

 

I spent $250 on a engine lift and $50 on engine stand and go to it!

 

Or he could

Well, After the RMB motor handled last nights mess up on my part (didn't plug in a Wastgate hose after swapping coils), I would say it's almost bullet proof.

-18c (0f) + 3rd gear WOT = 26lbs of boost.

Opps...

 

Good to know. 26psi shouldn’t be anywhere near its limits but I guess @RMB_Ryan would have to confirm

I remember he spun his current motor out to 8k RPM’s when Rev was tuning his truck

26psi. Pfttt. Needs MOAR

 

50#/min @4600rpm was pretty good, ha!

 

We would want to remove the fire ring in the head head gasket and oring the block over 30 on the very very low end but usually 35-55 or maybe 60 psi we do that. From there you do copper head gasket, oring receiver grooves and sealant around coolant and a race car or truck type deal. New every race week.

Other thing, we always will need arp 625+ head studs at 30+ psi. Not even question that once and a while is fine, but if that is your thing than we require it to give you what and come to Raman for and be reliable.

Side note: we saw one old customer we worked with and he hit like 72 psi doing similar and exploded their Intercooler do to TB closing. Thank god to tuning with a tuner and not a tooner. Boost King is a tuner, period, a good one too if you asked my opinion.


This is all good news.

 

Truck goes in for some cosmetic surgery next week and to finally get the rear ADD bumper put on. I'll be glad to knock it off the list.

 

It's been -27c here and just too cold to flog the truck for data logging. It goes in tomorrow for the bodywork, I hope it won't take muck more than 4-5 days.

When it comes back, Aux Reverse lights, Fuel Pressure gauge and Boost gauge going in and hopefully some TurboSmart Waste Gates (CDN Customs sucks).

 

Are you running stock waste gates right now? Nothing different with the springs?

And what springs are you planning for the TS's?

And what gauges are using? And lights?

Oh oh and what kind of body work?

 

I try everything to avoid Customs, sons of b!tches always want their cut. But sometimes you have to bite the bullet.

 

Yeah, I've always despised customs but it is, what it is.

At least in Alberta, the rules seem to be way more lax and I only pay 5%.

 

Wow.

So I just want you to know THIS thread was the one I have made the effort to "catch up" on first! (Since October, I think?)

I have the biggest grin on my face.

"a gentleman's build"

I love it! The whole concept and choices made. Fantastic!

Well, if it isn't Rip Van Winkle himself!!

Welcome back!

 

The shop was hoping to have the truck done, but waiting on the bumper to get bed lined. Should have it Monday though.

 

Oh and heavier weight springs ordered up for the coil-overs. Extra weight of the winch, mount and Skid Plate needs to be off-set.

 

I'm a Dumbass. I ordered a 2 5/8" fuel Pressure gauge instead of the standard 2 1/16". Returning this one and correct one ordered. I was all distracted as this one was a good price and had a warning light and peak recall.
