Relax Chester. I'm at the kitchen table right now pinning out the harness against the Cummins Quickserve online manual.

That is just for build variance discrepancies, ease of mounting. All 6 injector lines would need to be bent, and there may be a hidden pump support bracket that would not line up anymore. Yanking the gear from the front is super easy and you only need to remove the plastic cover with the tach...

$1700? Tell them to FO. I paid $550 at a local place that custom makes a high volume of them for global replacement applications. The entire thing is copper and brand new, they only reused the end tanks. It was an amazing process to see it all happen. They will likely not show a listing for...

Ummmm, I have to work today! Shall I PM you my truck's address? Nice!

So, what did you bring down? Cletus and the F-Series? I would have drove that 8-ball, no prob. It's not an airplane engine, it is only 47 years old, what's the worst that could happen? You make some new friends. Good to see you there. Sorry it rained and everybody took their toys and went...

Pretty cool. Can I have it?

Too many amps.

News to me. I have not seen electric exclusive fans in use yet on such applications, but you see a lot more of it that I do. I'm not going to electric unless space constraints drive it, but 4xdesign was able to move his radiator back 2.5" for the charge air cooler and keep his belt fan, so I...

Yep. This was not my starter, a portion of our facility acts as a warranty return center for our product(s). I needed a few different orientated nose cones, so I tripped upon this one during disassembly, and thought to post a lesson learned.

When the procedure was authored, were the rings chrome plated? Are non-plated cast iron rings available for the engine today? I would study more deeply on break in procedure for chrome plated rings on various engines before doing anything. Really, what I would do, if you are determined to...

82 pages and still blowing smoke from the straw. I told you that you can use the dyno any weekday or weekend night. It is 2wd rollers, so you need to disable one drive axle and remove the outer wheels of the one on the rollers. Can load up to 500hp intermittent, 350hp continuous, for as long...

Thought I would post a photo of what happens if you hold your starter on longer than the specified 30 seconds. Brushes and armature/commutator run the hottest. Starter is a very powerful motor (6kW or so), with zero cooling. In the picture below this armature got so hot the varnish melted off...

Thought I would post a pic of the planetary drive workings of a modern lightweight high efficiency heavy duty starter. The armature shaft is splined and sits in the middle. These starters weigh 28lbs, are dynamically computer balanced, and are O ring sealed. Developed to last a minimum of...

Yeah, you're probably wrong. :)

I have $1000 into all brand new clutch parts, rated for it. We're going 13 speed for the win at this point. The 6 speed Allison RV trans has big jumps in gears down low, and the 2 top gears are overdrive, good for road use only. I'm eBaying it. PM if anybody wants it. Cheap.

The CFM of a mechanical fan is like 14x that of an electric on. That is why big rigs have not switched to them, yet. You can hear and feel the difference comparing them.

Was at the Findlay show yesterday. Will crank it up tonight and post a few pics of it naked, stay tuned.

Check neutral max RPM, air, and fuel systems.

Grill is handled.
