Re: My 52 GMC Build
Well I have spent a lot of time researching what power level and what parts I need for the 7.3L power stroke. I decided on 450whp 750wtq, so I ordered all the parts now, so I have them ready. Today the last of the fun parts showed up.
I works out to a stage 3 build. That should get my 5200lb truck moving real fast. Turbo is a 66/73mm ball bearing, I will start the motor build after I finish the 48 Chevy I'm working on now.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Ya I might end up with a traction problem
![]() I know right Oh you got that right!! Wait the torque of any diesel is addictive. I love watching the speedo go up faster than the tack and you are only at 2000rpm.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Well Saturday I woke up the beast and put it on the hoist for it's yearly oil change, all 14L of it. Had to do a few other maintenance items also, grease, change rear gear oil, change out my sticking starter toggle switch to a good push button, new bolt in my wiggly side mirror. Other than that everything looks great. for 6 summers and 23,000mi of abuse.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Well that was not nice for my Jeeps first drive of the season, welcome to southern Ontario.
Installed some blue LED strips in the grill and under the bed, should look really cool at night. I have them on there own switch. The weather should be good by Friday.

Re: My 52 GMC Build
Sunday was a beautiful day for a drive!! Went to a local covered bridge for a destination. The sign says it's the last covered bridge in Ontario, built in 1881 is 198' long.
