Anybody have an email for joey at terminator engineering?
I have had alot of downtime due to a back injury and surgery and I am just now getting back to this project. A few updates for anybody interested:
WVO-Already installed efuel, fuel bowl delete, 30 and 2 mic spin-on filters, regulated return, tank selector valve, temp and psi gauges. I have a van 35g midship tank to install for diesel. I have a wvodesigns pump, hot fox, 3 30plate fphe's, 2 racor 777r heated filters(darth vaders), 25ft hose in hose, all for the rear stock 55g plastic tank. I plan on being able to run svo below 0*f ambient, but still need to research a tank heater option to assist the hotfox.
Engine-I am planning on going with a t500 and 160/30 singleshot injectors.
Turbo- I have the riff raff 4/4 wheel to install in the 02 van turbo.
Tunes-I haven't decided on a tuner yet.
Intercooler- I have all a2w ic parts to install. This huge box lives in constant boost on the highways....12/13 psi to hold 75mph! I feel I will need more of a monster heat exchanger(or multiple hx's) than anyone has used on a standard van because I'm always in boost and making heat.
Trans-I am using the 4r100 over the e4od for the better shift strategies.
Wiring/ecm-I'm considering just going with a van ecm for a 4r100 trans...or I already have the complete wiring harness(with the MAT/IAT2 sensor!, ecm, and instrument cluster etc) from my 4wd donor truck.
4x4- I picked up an 02 f550 7.3 drw for the 4wd conversion. axles are 4.88 and have 19.5 rims mounted to clear the massive brakes. Transfer case is mechanical.
Solar power-I purchased 4 fullriver 4d agm batteries. I am switching to a 24v house batt bank for better high load inverter efficiency(i.e. a/c and electric "cheapheat"). I am going to toss the 3 panels(500w@17v) I currently have and start over. I plan to cover every inch of space I can on the roof with 30-50v panels in parallel and a mppt charge controller. I haven't decided on which brand 24v inverter to go with yet.
