I've got a 98 peterbilt 379 w/detroit 12.7 and wanting to install a davco 382. There's limited room and wondering if anyone else has one installed and maybe pics.
Only real place is where primary is but it's going to call for a fabricated bracket. And firewall wiring and stirring shaft also problem.
I know its has to be higher than tanks and all.
davco 382 install on pete

Bump.
No one has a 379 peterbilt with a Detroit? And has a davco or simular aftermarket system? -
Guy I'm leased to has a couple,if one is around tomorrow will get a pic.
Best I can remember they have a bracket mounted to the frame near the firewall. -
I know the 380 are mounted with what looks like a 5'' exhaust clamp.
free2fly973 Thanks this. -
I really appreciate you guys input! Not yelling just happy for response lol. I would really appreciate any pics too. Just looking for any advise or input on location and not being in line of fire with lowering and raising hood.
I really love my Pete and my wonderful Detroit just would like to put to use a davco 382 have laying around. About best fuel processor around. Don't have to guess when to change element or if got bad fuel. Plus done refurbished myself awhile back. -
Should put it on frame rail just under steering shaft. Put a 7 micron filter in it and that's the only filter you need . No need for a secondary on engine.
Also put the plus size filter in it , flows 180gph. The regular size one only flows 100gphfree2fly973 Thanks this. -
free2fly973 Thanks this.

Didn't know plus size would fit in a regular davco 382. Thanks and thanks for the pic 062, really appreciate it. It's about what I'm contemplating.
-
Plus size only fits in the plus size bowl.
I think the 382 davco after 2008 have the plus side bowl alreadyfree2fly973 Thanks this. -
