    WOW we replaced this little rubber valve i forgot what my dad told me was called he's a big cummins fan he says this little cabover can keep up with my w900 that is pushing 980 horses from all the excitement and it runs like a beast already. turns out the middle head jake solenoid was disconnected so the jake riht now is much stronger, i replaced the some flexpipe ,im definitely gonna get the dual fuel lines and run the overhead i decided to run the truck locally theres these loads from my neighbor to another warehouse 13 miles away he gives me 250 each and make some money for the rebuild process thats gonna start in december THANK YOU for all the information ill get a video to show you guys how mean she shounds

    WHY would you rebuild a good running engine?

    i just want to rebuild it for peace of mind the kit is 1500 or so. We run hard about 6000 miles a week and the last thing i want is surprises in the middle of nowhere

    If your going to run it that hard I would NOT put anything other than factory cummins parts in it.

    Looks great :biggrin_255: but the music and all the noise really drown out the true sound of the cummins but other than taht it shows how much potential these engines have

    ok I'm gonna be tearing appart the cummins soon :biggrin_25525: I wanna know what you think about this power recipe i'm getting brand new heads out of a 400 my dad's friend said that the exhaust ports are a bit smaller but the turbo will sound great. I also have a brand new set of injectors but i still don't know how much power i want the guy out of australia said he can make them from 300-450 without changing the cam. Hopefully ill get started after christmas and clean and paint the engine. I was thinking about getting the aftercooler and the valve covers chromed anyone know a place where i could get this done . Thank You
