Pre-trip inspection..

[cruiserdan]

I'm prepping for a trip into Dollhouse, leaving Wednesday. My neighbor came over and provided a free Cat-Scan...

 

[landtank]

your trip sounds Catastic

How much boost pressure does the SC provide?

The stock pulley was 3.2 inches. I'm running a 3 inch pulley. That produces ~7psi. That blower has been on the truck for 4 months shy of 25 years.

Vehicle (paint) looks to be in great condition, has it been repainted?

 

[baldilocks]

And you are running the stock ecu, injectors, MAF, etc. I assume so if dealerships installed the SC on request. I ask bc I’m building a 96 and going to turbo charge it to 7psi.

Looks perrrrfect

Might send him underneath to check the cat-alytic converter...

I installed it myself. It was the first field-installed unit on a 93-94. TRD did not intend them to fit on those years. I made it work. I also fitted methanol injection. It uses the stock efi computer and injectors. Base ignition timing is also stock.

Twice in the last 32 years.

Ok, so you've been running OBD1 with 6+ psi of boost for years with only a meth injection setup? Do I see intercooler piping too?

I've been speculating that OBD1 would be fine with a little spray of meth under 3/4 throttle/WOT. I ran a similar basic Snow meth system with a small intercooler on my old Callaway Rabbit that I was running 15psi and CIS injection and it was a beast. I did to a little to increase the fuel pressure on that one plus some other old school CIS tricks, but basically stock injection and bottom end that ran hard for years.

For a few months shy of 25 years and 156,523 miles (as of this morning). No intercooler. I do not run it "hard".

Have fun at the dollhouse - without the cat?! Are you camping out there?

More pics of the legendary rig, por favor.

Weather’s gonna be perfect down there I bet.

Did the museum find your replacement yet?

 

[cruiserdan]

Did a preflight on Sarah's "Stickers" today. New battery and oil change. I guess today was the cat's day off. He was a no-show. I was hoping he would stop by to consult.

The search for my successor is ongoing. There was a candidate interview today.

There's not much to see. It's not way built with giant tires and cutting edge lift.

 

[cruiserdan]

Basically it has been a family member for 32 years.

Yes, we have a permit from the Park Service
