Diesel-Runner replied to the thread 2.7L Turbo L3B Swap?.This 2.7 in question is not a diesel. In theory there are some benefits over the typical LS swap. I dont think 20MPG would be out of the question with this combo with more power than the early 4.8/5.3 LS swaps and a nice 8 speed transmission... -
I don't think you said why you replaced the compressor. If the old one seized, then you could have metal shards in the lines, requiring the system to be disassembled and blown out with cleaner. I suppose there may be other failure modes besides...

Diesel-Runner replied to the thread 2.7L Turbo L3B Swap?.The biggest issue is that the reliability is unknown but there is replacement for displacement, it's forced induction. A 430 ftlbs engine mated to a modern 8 speed auto would be a great combo. A full size crew cab 4wd truck these are slated to go...

Anybody consider the 2.7 Turbo in the Silverado 1500 for a swap? Wondering if it would be similar to other Chevy swaps (harness/accessories) or if you’d be paving the way in uncharted territories… Hp: 310 Tq: 348 New High power reportedly has...

Found a pair of 70 series bumpstops for $66 and bought them.

Can we all assume the 91-92 is different from 93-97. When I make statements about bump stops I am referring to the 1FZ-FE fzj80 series suspension. Pic below suggest the 3FE crowd is different to the 1FZ-FE crowd. I would guess the bump stops were...

Diesel-Runner replied to the thread Rear Bump Stop Types.This gets back at my original post. Stock rear bump stops are not all the same height. One appears to be about .75" longer

Diesel-Runner replied to the thread Electric Fan worth it?.The fan is only one part of how a cooling system exchanges heat. A system can be designed to have zero forced airflow and still function well. The factory radiator is designed around the CFM flow rating of the engine driven fan. If you want...

Diesel-Runner replied to the thread Rear Bump Stop Types.I've been looking into that, was thinking about just bolting a spacer to the bottom coil bucket on the axle.

Diesel-Runner replied to the thread Rear Bump Stop Types.Is your top panhard bolt on that delta extension hitting the frame crossmember? Sure looks like it.

Set of 5 37x12.50R17 Yokohama Geolander G003s should be here next week depending on shipper. I actually ordered the 385s, but then realized that in my quest for a 37 to fit on the 16" wheels, I neglected to realize that a 385 is over 15" wide...

Diesel-Runner replied to the thread Rear Bump Stop Types.I have 37" on about a 5" lift. Been running 2" extensions on the rear and the bumpstops still dont quite make contact where I want them. Notice another inmate with almost the exact same setup (lift, tires and wheels) showing good contact on bump...

I mounted some kongs, this makes less of a hard bump stop when bombing through whoops.
-
Diesel-Runner replied to the thread Rear Bump Stop Types.I've found a couple other rear drum 80s that have the larger bump stop. That could account for some of the variation in extension lengths.

Diesel-Runner replied to the thread Rear Bump Stop Types.I think your on to something. Hopefully someone else can confirm.

Might be 48306-60100 from 1991-1993 and this is the only picture I can find.

Diesel-Runner replied to the thread Rear Bump Stop Types.Disregard the extensions, look at the actual bump stop, the bottom 2 are longer than the top 2.
