it has a fuel plate an intake along with a spring kit as well as a straight pipe thanks in advanced |
whats your timing at? if its really cold you will have to keep on the throttle for a few seconds. if your idles to low and its cold they will die.
|
just had the timing re done but but my thing was the smoke it was very scary looking man i had it plugged in over night so idk how it would be that cold?
|
mine smokes pretty good at an idle in the winter. but idk why it would be if you plugged it in and such. timing could have slipped tho
|
hows your fuel pressure?
|
First off Cummins does not use glow plugs, they use an intake heater or grid heater. It heats the air as it enters the head.
Sounds to me like your timing has slipped. Its a know problem if the pump shaft is not squeeky clean when you turque the gear down. Did your wait to start light stay on longer that the rest of the lights? If so then your block heater might have gone belly up or it tripped the breaker for your power cord. |
Check you air box. My buddy had a rat nest in his and it was smokin like he was burnin the tires. We cleaned it out and it cleared up quick :yeah:

|
Just depends on what you want to do with it. Is it just gonna be a reliable daily driver or a drag racer? Theres so many options out there it just depends on you and how deep your pockets are.
|
its going to be a dd but with some sack to it
|
Okay so around 550HP.
Stock 12v block and internals will handle that with no problem. If you want to have the pistons coated thats up to you, they will handle more heat if they are. The head will need to be O-ringed and port and polish is up to you, not needed but will help. Full set of guages, boost, EGT, fuel press, trans temp if its an auto Head studs Cam 150HP injectors Compound turbos P-7100 from a 5 speed with tuning, 4k GSK, plate either a fully built auto or 6 speed with a big clutch....... FASS or AD Others with more knowledge, feel free to add to or modify my list. |
its auto an keep this list coming

Sun coast converters trans set up
