Re: deer hunters? Here you go: Estimated 220lbs. Got him at 8:15am, so I couldn't use the woods truck to retrieve him (my brother was still in the woods and I didn't want to mess up his hunt). Luckily, when I got back to the house my daughter was awake and anxious to help dad drag a deer...

Re: deer hunters? I bagged a 150" 10-point opening day. Shot him from the same stand I've hunted for the past 11 years. Good equipment, good stand, little bit of luck...

Re: Pillar Pod pics Autometer SportComp gauges in a LoTek triple pillar. I think the SportComps match the factory gauges quite well.

Re: Johnson intercooler pump flow enough? Yep, I believe it. Engine cooling system = lots different then a charge coolant system ;) Lots of other factors there… Centrifugal Impellers are most efficient at one speed and have trouble coping with variances in revs. Water passages through...

Re: Johnson intercooler pump flow enough? Gotta call you on that one, Jas ;) Coolant efficiency actually improves with greater flow. The only way increased coolant speed could have a negative effect is if: (1) It is excessive enough to cause cavitation (coolant coming away from the...

Re: wrong to partout? Sounds like a good plan considering the circumstances. I say go for it.

Re: 100 LL :thumbsup: Thanks for the link, looks like a neat product. I'm assuming your using a WB02 with the Bigstuff3, how is it holding up with the lead?

Re: Stock/20g turbo question Doubtful. Most 14cm2 housings are machined for the "6h" turbine wheel, which is larger than the stock "6" wheel. You can measure them to make sure: Turbine wheel Inducer / Exducer TD05h = 1.930 / 2.200 TD06 = 2.175 / 2.560 TD06h = 2.315 / 2.650 HTH.

Re: idea to help myclones family. Count me in! Shirt & stickers. -Erik.

Re: Myclone is gone I am stunned. :( Dave was an outstanding guy. There was something about the way he related to the world that everyone could identify with. This is a large blow to the Sy/Ty community and he will be greatly missed. Lisa, please know I will be praying for you and your...

Re: Not water cooling a stock turbo X2 :thumbsup: I say any thread that ends with myclone taking the bandsaw to something is vault material....

Re: Miles on your Sy/Ty? 8,915 and the tenths place is stuck between the 6 and 7. I know this by rote because that's where its been for the last 4 years..... :shoot:

Re: which oil is best ... It's been my experience that Castrol is decent oil, and among the better grades of mineral oil. From their website, the Magnatec looks to be an Ester-synthetic blend, which is a good thing. I think you’ll be fine. If you don't have a pre-luber/turbo-timer, remember...

Re: Complete front end kit Depends on how much of the coilover set-up you buy. AFAIK, both coilover set-ups currently available are sold as complete kits or A-Arms only. To the best of my knowledge, the A-Arms in both set-ups use the factory ball joints and replacement polyurethane...

Re: which oil is best ... VP RS1550 is what I’ve run up to this point. When #837 goes back on the road, I’ll either use that again or possibly Amsoil 3000 HDD. Fully ester-synthetic oil has the best properties. Unfortunately, it is the most expensive. Expect to pay $10/quart for it. VP...

Re: Rebuild Pics Of Sy 0983 Nice work Chris! :tup: Glad to see you kept the truck and are moving forward!

Re: something is wrong with my Syclone Yeah, and LEAVE IT ALONE. I had a stock truck that ran like a watch and pulled like a freight train. Never lost a race, but for some reason I just had to modify it (disease). It hasn't seen pavement in 3 years. :cry: Leave it alone.

Re: Tom Ferrick's challenge to the swedes Agreed. Schoolhouse at midnight, big time.

Re: trans rant!!! #5 What Jimmy said. The 4l80e is the ultimate fix, but a Sy/Ty specific trans with a decent build would be a lot better than what you've been using...
