Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
Soo, I am at the EXACT same point you are, I literally tried a 7.3 intercooler yesterday evening, too narrow, then my grandpa gave me the same Dodge one you have today and it's tall as all get out!
What are you gonna do about the hood latch? I just bolted my latch up to see if it'd all clear and it ain't lookin too hot. |

I never started a build thread because I knew I wouldn't be consistent enough or have the time to keep up on it. I've taken pictures here and there throughout the deal but just never made a thread. I have a thread that has a few updates, nothin spectacular though. Doing this 2wd with and Auto is proving to be a good challenge though! I don't have all the clearance like you 4wd guys! |

I'll start a build thread if you set me up with a big turbo so I can do compounds with my sissy little Aurora 2000! ;):hm: |

I wanted to keep the truck as original appearing as possible since my grandma was the original owner from 68-96 when she passed away! The Aurora I bought with a set of DDP "Stage 3" injectors and a fuel plate for $380, I couldn't pass that up! Aren't those injectors like 5x.013, right? |

I wouldn't recommend anything bigger than a 145* 5*0.012" SAC injector for your A2000, if I was the one selling you Ryan's injectors. |
Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
Fuel plate is a 6 profile I believe.
This turbo is pretty much just a non gated S300 though, right? |
Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
Nope, if memory serves me correct, I got hung up on for asking if the the A2000 was similar to the S300G, and if the A3000 was similar to the S300. S300G is a smaller cartridge than the S300. They don't seem to like that people know they don't produce their own turbos.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
I'm going to take a stab here, but I think A2000's are S200 series and the A3000's are S300's. 200's do look very similar to 300's though.

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
Well ride on, thanks for the help/input guys!
Appreciate it all from the both of ya! Anyway you might know of a exhaust manifold like the 24v ones that put the turbo to the front of the motor that has the right ports or am I gonna have to build one? |

Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion
No big progress this weekend. Between working on a semi and sluffing off with the owner, and Mother's Day, I didn't get much done on this thing. But I did manage to get the hydra boost on. It isn't done as I have to build a linkage to connect the brake pedal too, and drill 2 holes in the mounting plate to finish bolting it to the fire wall. I did find my clutch pedals and get them in finally. I also removed the large spring from the clutch pedal because I won't be using it. By the way, I had to go hydraboost because now that I raised the engine up and brought it back more, a vacuum type set up will not fit.

I'm going to have to modify my engine mounting bracket to clear the PS line. Yeehaw! http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x...n/IMG_0464.jpg |
