    Brake bleeding doesn't seem to be going as planned

    I have to agree with these gentlemen about using a pressure bleeder. I have tried to use a vacuum bleeder on several different vehicles and have never been happy with the results. I got a pressure bleeder when I did the brakes on my deuce and man does it make life easy. 2cents

    My air pack cracked??? Is this common??

    The only reason I can think the cylinder would crack over the winter would be if a water bubble was in the cylinder around that area and the temps got low enough for it to freeze and expand.

    Ouverson engineering 4.90 gear set

    Turned up the Fuel today

    :grin: Good one. I just couldn't figure how you where pushing that boost with that much fuel and only hitting that EGT.

    Turned up the Fuel today

    Where is the thermocouple mounted. Before or after the turbo. I can't see that much boost and smoke and that low of a EGT. I will admit I don't know much about water injection though. Maybe that explains the low EGT ?

    Just wanted to share!

    Looks nice Jim. Will be interesting to see how they wear compared to the NDCC tires. Should be a lot nicer on wet road conditions.
