7XC CAT?

well from reading the tag on engine its a remaned engine just wanted to know if it was a weaker or lower rated hp rating then the past 7fb engines ive had for one this engine has a turbo on it with a smaller front compressor housing, as well as the nose cone on front timing cover is pointed on my 7fb engines they were not they has a flat dommed cover.


smoking cAT!!! would you like to chime in

 

so with arrangement # and casting off the pump it will give you more insight SMOKIN CAT as to what this engine can be set for.?

 

hey SMOKIN CAT quick question I wanted to know if I would be able to open up the pump on this engine beinge that I know for usre it has the smaller factory turbo, will there be any negative effects by opening up the pump?

also I know the last b model I had, had the timing advanced would I be able to play with timing any without any major tools? I know there was something behind the nose cone that needed to be played with just a little.


also I noticed on the Fuel Pump the clocking for the throttle pedal tube, it looks as if it has been moved back or retarded on the clock wheel on the pump itself, you can see were the arm was originally located as its not painted in that location, does this have anything to do on how quickly the truck responds to fuel and pedal response? what I noticed with this truck is that you can floor it and power will not rise instant has like a slight delay before she gets up and goes and holds 25psi of boost on the guage.

ive changed all filters.. but noticed the clocking on the pump is there anything I can do there to make it respond better?

any help would be great, I know how to open up pump already, but don't know about the timing and pump clocking.

 

smokincat I will try that but what exactly do you mean by break over if I remember correctly its set somewere at the 9 o clock position but the old mark looks more like the 12 oclock position.

I spoke to the old owner and he told me the reason why it was moved was because the pedal angle inside of the cab was uncomfortable so he added a plate to top of pedal with more angle up and adjusted pump on throttle clocking so that it would bolt up and line up could this be my slow response issue? if not im just going to open up the pump the way I did on the last b model and see if that helps.

 

so are you saying to remove the tension from pump mechanism I need to remove linkage and see how far forward pump mech goes around?

 

with the linkage connected tho it wont show me the max limit to the rack tho?

what I did notice is that the throttle pedal seems to be way higher in position, cuase when pedal is floored its no were near the stop tab behind pedal.
