"Where's the Beef?"Here I am. Time to make the donuts. If you are old enough you will know what that means. I will report back later. The weather is great. Be Safe and Good Luck.
LOL!! 59 minutes later? That isn't even enough time to cook and eat breakfast...........for most of us!"Where's the Beef?"
OK so survey says to move the injection pump line 1/8" towards drivers side and go from there. It sounds great and easy enough to me. I will report back later. No one ever answers my legitimate questions here. if I would want to do a lift kit, electrical bypass or and axle swap everyone has ideas. Fair enough. Silence is educational for me and it provides opportunity for me to learn. Thank you. Take Care and Be Safe.
Rick I believe 1/8" may be a little too far. I found my 6.2's sweet spot just to the driver's side, maybe the thickness of the line.OK so survey says to move the injection pump line 1/8" towards drivers side and go from there.
If we had the knowledge we would share it with you of courseOK so survey says to move the injection pump line 1/8" towards drivers side and go from there. It sounds great and easy enough to me.

I was a bit weary also. I never put an injection pump on either side of the line. I always aligned it on the line to line. I did this install line to line and thought it smoked and burnt my eyes in my shop. I called Diesel Care and spoke with them. They said the 1/8" towards drivers side. I am NOT a specialist in injection pumps. I do not wish to step into areas I have no experience. I am willing to learn. I can do many things and choose which I do and which I pay to have done. The fine tuning I let up to professionals. Things on this project I didn't do myself. I sent to competent businesses and paid to have done.Rick I believe 1/8" may be a little too far.

I do a lot of dirty hard work and can replace / repair lots of parts. Somethings I am NOT 100% sure of and feel comfortable letting someone I know and trust do that work. I have been doing automotive/truck all my life and know a hack shop from a competent shop. So I am not a guy that thinks he knows it all. I turn away a lot of work after I see how hacked and chopped the vehicles are. I choose to involve myself or NOT. I feel I have built a reliable vehicle and have tried to not overlook any of the details. I would drive it and feel proud that it was built in my barn. Born in a Barn would be a good name for this build. Have a Great Day and Be Safe. Take Care.
