Figured I’d start a thread showing my swap progress. Maybe it will help someone in the future as there is very little info out there on it. Very short version of the back story...about 3 months ago I bought an m923a2 and an m923 as a package deal. Plan was to keep the a2 and sell the a0. Wound...

It’s not like it’s their money they’re wasting :shrugs:

Thanks guys. Going with a 400 psi isspro drive oil pressure gauge. The words won’t be right but it matches my other gauges.

Made some more progress on my turbo install. Been working on it for 2 weeks. Work a little, wait on parts, repeat....

Awesome. Thank you. Just for reference what’s a safe number for cam longevity? Stock is around 180 right?

What’s the max safe rail pressure on these? I’m planning to install a gauge and my options are 200 psi or 400. The truck is stock right now but may not stay that way. I have searched and searched for an answer and can’t find anything....

How is the fluid level? I’ve had several pickup trucks spit fluid out because they were low. Sounds backwards but once it starts mixing in air it foams up and makes a mess.

I sold this one about 6 months ago for 5. Ran and drove perfect and had a title. It was on the market for 2-3 months. Personally, without a title, I wouldn’t risk fooling with it. I think it will help tremendously if you can get one.

I just replaced my water pump a couple weeks ago and I know I had to go around it like 10 times with a torque wrench before all the bolts quit turning. It seemed to compress quite a bit.

Picked up a load of goodies from the junkyard and got started on my turbo project. Should have that done in a couple weeks then I’m gonna get rid of the pos allison. I’m off work til July so it’s a good time to get it done. The small manifold in the picture is off a 5.9. It’s funny that the 5.9...

Thinking about getting some 16.00s for my truck. What do 80% tread used ones normally sell for?

If you’re trying to check the fuel shutoff solenoid you need to bump the starter to see if it is working. One wire is ground, one is to pull it up (when started is engaged), one is to hold it up. If it doesn’t pull up on its own, leave the key on and pull it up by hand. It will probably stay...

Can you not just knock the liners out while the pistons are stuck in them?

Thanks!

Does anybody know the correct Cummins part number for nhc250 front crank seal? I found 208069 in a tm on here but quickserve shows 3010457.

Figured I’d drive mine one last time before I tear it apart for the trans swap. Made it about 2 miles and the water pump locked up. She got to 240° quick. Ordered a genuine Cummins pump for $140. Dealer wanted 370....

Agreed. Even with the pump not spinning, with the injector lines off you should see fuel flowing through the pump and coming out at least one port.

I’m in between jobs this week so I got a lot accomplished. My m923a0 was stuck in 6x6 so I started to bypass the valve that locks it in in low. Didn’t have the right fitting so I took the valve apart and found a tiny bit of rust. A shot of wd40 and it works good as new. Ran 1/4” air tubing from...

Well I stand corrected. I’ve never seen one that wasn’t mechanical. Learn something every day.
