Sorry, no pics....was in a bit of a rush to get back on the road.

But I did take the intake air heater out - cut it up - and soldier a fitting onto it so I have a easy boost reference point for when I add gauges.




My pod should be in next week and I will scrounge up some spare gauges to put in......then she's done for the summer.......hopefully.

I like the new truck and nice write up! The fuel plugs locations are easier to see with Clay's FRX hooked up.

On edit, I think your are talking about different plugs for the fuel. You said a 1/4 inch drive so I'm guessing on the back of the head towards the firewall? Take it easy on the newbie..lol..

Yip, it is the banjo bolt on the rear of the head that needs to be loosened, and not the plug on the intake manifold side.

You can see it easily in this picture, it is on the driver front in this picture(shiny round thing), but it is in the exact same location on the rear of the head.

That looks sweet. I love the color scheme. Is that an engine you are building or put in? Thanks for the update, can't you pull the rear injectors on both sides then suck them out? I have never had to replace them just something I read. I should of replaced the harmonic balancer when I did the lpop.

That is the motor I put in my CCSB, which is currently in pieces now.

You could just not pull any plugs and let the cylinders fill with fuel and oil, then evacuate them later, but using this method there is no cross contamination between the two. This is the method Ford recommends, and frankly, I prefer it because there is not such a big mess when you are done.

Got a chance to try out the dually this weekend.





That is a buddys new project truck, he will be transplanting the 3126 into his SD.

Looks like a pretty good load, about how much weight?

I did not roll it on the scales, but I guess that combo was 20kish.
