Re: My 52 GMC Build
Nice rubber removal! Did you need to change your oil return for the turbo, or are you just trying to spruce up the valley of the engine?

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Lower,
Your truck is very cool and love the burn out video. I plan to do a burn out video when I'm done and on the road. I also dont expect my rear tires to last long either! |

Thanks Diesel
Today went great! Got better numbers than I expected for my base tune. 152hp 314tq This is a local speed shop that has been doing this for quite a while. I asked him what flywheel power would be he said, because I have a huge auto trans and axle I'm losing about 100 off each. So that makes it 252hp 414tq SWEET. Also has a very nice curve. So over the winter I can figure out how much more I will be happy with and how I'm going to get it, but still keep it reliable. I'm thinking boost up to 12psi from 8 and a bit more fuel. https://youtu.be/gEID1M2u1BQ Attachment 1573727 Attachment 1573728 |

My original hope when I was building the truck was around 200hp and 400tq at the wheels so I'm not far off. |
Re: My 52 GMC Build
Keep it near there before you're searching for another engine to build. :lol:

Well it official we are driving my truck pulling my gray camping trailer to Charlotte North Carolina for the Goodguys car show. We will be leaving 3 weeks today. Then after the show we are taking a few days to see the sites on the way home. Should be about 700mi down and 1200-1300mi home. Maybe I'll see one of you guys there?

Hi all. In preparation for our big trip south in 2 weeks, I finally got some extra features done on the truck and trailer. In the truck I added an extra 12v plug and a pair of usb ports. I hid them in the glove box. On my trailer I have been playing all summer with how to add an awning. I came up with 2 arms that swing out and have 2 tarps attached. With 2 people it is very easy to setup and take down. The main awning is 12'x12'. It's not pulled tight in the pic.

Thanks Cory
Well last Saturday, I took the truck over to my friend Joe's work to do an oil change and look over the truck before our big trip. Found the rear shocks where a bit loose in the bottom mount. We ended up pulling the bottom bolt to do a touch of clearance grinding and found one shock had no gas pre-load. I got a new one today under warranty. This week I also found a glow plug died on me so got a new one. Over all I think she is ready. I mapped out our trip and it comes in at 2100mi pulling my 18' trailer. |
Re: My 52 GMC Build
It's always good to know you've checked all you can before a big trip. I wish you luck on your trip, have safe travels. may the truck gods be with you! :lol:

Re: My 52 GMC Build
