That comment made me butthurt! I work 14hour days, raise 2 kids and building a house. Where do I find time to do it all myself? Yes I know how. No I am not lazy. Yes I can afford to pay someone to do it for me. :) I come home every day from work so tired with Hydraulic fluid all over my clothes...
Copy that! Saving money is good! But I had to get it into the Exhaust shop today! They were booked out for months and I suckered up and bought pre rebuilt ones :-/ Buying the rebuild kits and rebuilding them myself would have set back the shop date months. HopefullyI’ll be driving her home next...
So both of my Isolated ground Alternators were toast. I had them checked at 2 places. I do have a spare non-isolated ground alternator I bought from Autozone that would work for the driver side. Part #DL7157 Pic 1-2. Current replacement price $120.
O’Rileys Autoparts was able to hunt down...
I know it’s been covered a million times but the threads I’ve read are confusing...
1. Some members say the driver side alternator does have to have an isolated ground and some members say it does not. What is the truth here?
2. Can someone post a picture of the back side of their Passenger...

I have no idea about the...
It feels like there is more lag time or slippage between shifts. I have not made any vacuum adjustments yet so that could be the problem.
The Exhaust shop called and said they got a cancellation this Friday so I’ll be able to get it in a week earlier! :-)
Chevymike I guess I did post up the dash pics on Post #91 page 5 but not as many. Hope these pics helps you.
Come to think on it... I do actually have one complaint about the DIY4X dash...
Heater Core access! There is none! I will have to pull out 1/2 the dash to get to the Heater Core. So...
Yes sir! It is a DY4X dash! Back in 2013 during my long haul trucking years I had purchased the dash, Phantom 2 gauges and paid a shop to install it. They said the hardest part was cutting out the old dash mount and doing the wiring. Back in 2013 it cost me $3,000 for all of it. I think it is...
I have had it for a long time! I love it! It gets a lot of compliments! It was very easy to install. The speakers are like little tweeters and should not be hooked up to a normal Stereo because they can blow easily. However, the speakers work great for a CB radio! Very loud and clear! The center...
Right now she is set at 7psi boost and it feels and sounds great going around the block! It turns a lot of heads!
I can tell the Th400 does not like the additional HP and Torque.
After the Downpipe and Exhaust is fully done in 1 1/2 weeks, I will up the boost to 10 psi max and take her on a...
Last night I installed the Pyrometer and Boost gauges over head on the LMC truck head liner. I ran the electrical down the pillar and wired them up behind the cluster.
Side by side comparison of the Oem 6.5 Exhaust Crossover vs the Upgraded one.
I was disappointed with the Diamond Eye crossover because the flare flange on both sides had burrs that I had to grind off with a flap disk.
Installation was easy! There is less space between the motor, driveshaft...
My Daughter bought the M1009 a gift! It is called a Car Inclinometer Angle Slope Level Meter. I cleaned up a year worth of dust on the dash and installed it! It’s super cool!
The down pipe exhaust elbows arrived in the mail!
Pic of the FM100 fuel filter/fuel heater/water separator all hooked...
The Optima Batteries I have are oversized so I relocated the windshield washer fluid reserve further back on the driver side. I had to remove the wiper motor for easier access.
The electronic lift pump I installed is a 4-7psi edelbrock model made for diesel trucks. I do not have it mounted yet...
I purchased a Diamond Eye Exhaust Cross over that will need to be shortened and the down pipe is going to be a custom build 3” aluminized pipe. The down pipe is going to be fabricated out of 3 pieces. 1 90 degree, 1 45 degree and 1 upgraded 6.5 downpipe.
I did a lot of research and found these...
