    NHC 250 Turbo Conversion in M923

    It does make it more enjoyable to not have to fight so hard to keep speed up. Cruising down the road the foot throttle is up off the floor. I can keep speed up a hill bobtail even pass my buddies when we are on a road trip:p

    NHC 250 Turbo Conversion in M923

    Well no the 250 does not have an AFC but through the full range of RPM down the road my truck does not smoke.

    NHC 250 Turbo Conversion in M923

    I have added a turbo to my 250, pilled the pump, added shims to the high speed spring and really like the performance so far. I have about 210 psi rail pressure, 13 psi boost, I have not been loaded up yet but I get about 750 to 775 temp on pyro max boost and rail psi (post turbo). No smoke...

    Calling all wheel/tire gods!

    I have a M931 and I am staying with my 11.00 20's G177's. My road speed is not that great but when driving it I am goofing off anyhow. I have 4 or 5 spares on the truck itself with them. The blow out stuff I do not like either. Just where i am thinking.

    Air pressure bleeder sounds like someone is using an air nailer in my cab?

    I would check how much air PSI you building to if over 120 to 125 you are building to much air ( If its the high PSI pop off). Your air dryer can sound like that too but lower noise level if the air dryer purge valve is not working.

    Cooked #1 Piston

    Looks like to me the pitting was almost a leak and might have been burning a little. Most of the time it is the extra heat from the piston melting to the liner that really cooks the o-rings good and coolant in the oil pan.

    1991 BMY M923A2 loses heat when temp gauge hits 200 degrees

    If the data plate is not up by the front cover the ESN can also be found stamped on a boss on the left rear of the engine block

    1991 BMY M923A2 loses heat when temp gauge hits 200 degrees

    In a post a few pages back talked about flushing the system with cascade and water. I can agree with that and what others have said. I just want to caution you that if you only use straight water during this process and its below freezing it will freeze in your radiator. I am just giving you a...

    MT654 Gear Selector shaft Stuck

    Sure you can pull the valve body while in the truck. I have done that in one commercial truck several times trying to get the trim set correctly. been a while back though. you will want to loosen all the bolts and let some of the fluid that in trans drain out because if I remember correctly...
