Built White truck A.C, links and coilovers (35 PSI boost!)

https://puredieselpower.com/dodge-products/he351-turbo-12-valve-oil-inlet-feed-fitting.html I think this is the fitting you need for your oil line but it is metric o-ring boss on the turbo side. I was trying to find the adapter plate. Looks like most everyone uses the -4 AN adapter plate and a -4 line when doing that particular style turbo. You could possibly make an adapter plate for the fitting or make a steel adapter plate and just braze or weld the fitting to it.

I was gonna suggest the adapter plate. Is there a significant benefit to using direct threads?

I'm having a plate made out of steel that the fitting out of the HX35 (same as pure Diesel power one) will thread into and the 3/8 flared SS flex line threads into that. I wanted OEM type fittings.

I searched and was really surprised no one offered one anywhere. Apparently they all just buy the other plate and new line.

I'm not a fan of the aluminum fittings. might be okay but I don't know so this is what I got. The fitting between the line and plate is OEM. A dude 4 miles south has a machine shop, when I picked it up he wasn't around so I left him $15. He will have a fit and tell me that's to much. He's awesome.

Is that the same fitting that threads into a TBI for the vacuum brake booster? Looks a ton like it

I'm not sure. The turbo bolted up pretty easy. It will boost 20 PSI real quick. It flutters or something wierd on the top end. I will get the timing checked and the pump tuned.

http://www.mandhinc.net/DPD-3-D-I.html I'm going to set the timing to factory and install this, they say it will advance the timing on the top end so better torque at the top and bottom.

I'm going to have to check that out more on an actual computer at work. I'm guessing it works for any rotary pump Cummins, 6 or 4 cyl.

This should help allot. I not sure why I haven't bought one of these before.

 

[Truckman4life]

I like these too. If you have room to get to the balancer from the top.

Mira.

That bolts on the front of the crank?

 

[Alan2smiley]

This tool meshes with the flywheel and turns the crank very slow. Now I can ajust the valves before I continue with any power upgrade.

A few pictures while I was looking up. Wishing I had more up travel with out more lift. Lots of plumbing, what happens to a brake line when it gets caught in the bump stop, Radiator mounts, Exhaust heatsheild and what happens to a oil pan after it makes contact with cross member.

Timing Advance device for the VE pump was delivered today, looks like a couple of parts I could get duplicated for $25. I guess everyone has to pay the light bill.

 

[Alan2smiley]

I need to retard the timing before I install the timing advance kit so that's on the to-do list.

The lean has annoyed me enough to fix it. The biggest reason is it cuts into the up travel that is very limited to begin with. The measurements are before I leveled driver rear by the floor drain. The back was off about 3/4" and the front about 1 1/4". I'm going to block the rear driver side 3/4".

 

[Alan2smiley]

A different meaning to "level kit". More up travel before hitting bump stop on driver side, a reminder why I save crap.

 

[Alan2smiley]

Better. I put a new center pin through the level block.

 

[Truckman4life]

I have some different height(left and right) lift blocks ready to install in my K5 to fix a rear lean also.
