They cannot get enough fuel in there with the HEUI type fuel injection system. It is driven by High pressure oil, and above about a 225 CC injector it runs out of high pressure oil to fire the injector. I am 99% sure we have that figured out.

Its official, the motor is back together. well the long block anyway. I will be picking it up tomorrow, and getting it installed in the truck tomorrow night. Only took 20 months. This weekend its off to Ennis and then over to Trusted Performance for them to install the fuel system and turbo's. Thank God, I am ready to go racing and to get this thing done.

I know where Ennis is! And don't feel bad... My project has been going on for far longer than 20 months, and it's much less ambitious and not nearly as far along!

Can we have a sub-forum for "Legendary Builds" and then sticky this?

This site has got to be one of the most amazing hotbeds for education about trucks I have ever found.
