I am thinking about taking the larger compressor wheel from the LDS465-2 turbo and putting it on the LDS465-1A wastegate turbo. Any technical reason not to do this?

Slit the ends of the drag link and get an off-the shelf tie rod clamp from NAPA.

Continental talks about this in their manual for the TD427. They caution that without it, pressure could build up causing the filter to break down sending particles into the pump and damaging the pump.

I thought he said it was dyno'd?

What is different about converted gassers? I put H4 lenses in my 1953 M35 and had no issues?

I've got two "d" turbos on the shelf and both are 3LM-39.

I thought that it involved head modifications?

BTDT. Won't get much out of a bolt-on deal. Need internal engine mods to enable the increased rpm necessary to get full advantage. Back in the day (based on published dyno results in Bill Fisher's GMC Speed Manual), an all out racing engine with a stock reworked head produced 215 to 236...

The Oliver/ White tractor forums suggest pulling the injectors every 1k hours and testing.

I've heated them up to get the housing to expand and hammered a screwdriver between the halves. The rebuild manual warns against doing this.....

3LJ-319 is the "C" turbo

Not sure if you made a typo but a D turbo is Schwitzer 3LM-39

Ross recommends a 50 micron full flow filter. I am a really cheap but patient person so I watched ebay for months before something turned up. It looks like you can get something very similar from here: http://www.straightlinesteering.com/Control%20Valves,%20Cylinder%20and%20Steering%20Cylinders.htm

I may know of some in Yankton, SD. PM me if interested and I'll put you in touch.

This conversion requires tie-rod ends from two different series (sizes). I used right-hand ends for both because there is no need for periodic adjustment and it won't work loose. There area few different part numbers which you can use; I used whatever was cheapest on ebay. I used ES187R for...

I get questions from time to time asking about part numbers, etc for the steering box and drag link: The junkyard ford power steering box had a 6-series u-joint and a hex slip shaft which was cut short when removed from the truck: I separated the right hand yoke/ stub shaft from the yoke on...

The numbers I quoted were "as compared to the usual by-pass type filter." It was and is common to modify the GMC engines for full flow oil filters. I modded several Reo engines to full flow using spin on filters. It is simply choosing the appropriate filter to match the flow. An ex gm...

It certainly did for me.

You can buy them new for $70 from Memphis Equipment.
