What places do you guys recommend calling for a IP seal kit? Thanks.

Yeah. I'm not planning on running it any more than I need to, but I don't want to change out all that oil until I find out what is causing it. I'll be calling around tomorrow to find a seal kit. Thanks.

Well I bypassed my FDC. And still the same problem. I saw a lot of smoke coming out of the valve cover vent tube. So I covered it with a rag in my hand just to see what would happen. And oil and fuel shot out of the dipstick like a gyser. There is a lot of fuel in the crank case!

Forgive my ignorance, but what is the hydraulic head? Is that part of the injection pump? Thanks

I will try that. I will let you know how it goes. Thanks.

Well I smelled the oil and it definitely has fuel in it. So the injection pump is pumping fuel into the crank case. Is this a hard fix? Do I need to replace the whole pump or is it just a seal I can change? Thanks.

My deuce is a 1966 Kaiser non turbo. I bobbed it and a week later the motor lost oil pressure at idle, and it spews oil like crazy! Oil comes out of the dipstick, valve covers, and the rear main seal. A lot of it. It still runs and starts fine, but it seems like it is getting high pressure in...

I leave in 2nd. But I don't leave on the throttle.

I am definitely wanting to use my Spicer. Are those parts that you mentioned pretty easy to install?

I am aware that the rated torque for Spicer is 300ftlbs, but they are also in a truck rated for 26,000lbs! So I was wondering if anyone has ever over powered one and actually broken one?? Has anyone even heard of this from someone they know? I could go with a 5 ton or a NV5600, but if I can use...

What about the injection pump? I know just about every 12v Cummins from the 90s had the P7100. And I know that some (or all, I'm not sure) of the DT360s came with A or MW Pumps. What pump did your DT360 have? And do you know the HP you were making? I didn't know the 360s are wet sleeve. That is...

Why do you like the DT360 more than the Cummins? My understanding is that they are very similar.

Thanks for the response. Do you guys sell those bearings and keys? Would it hold up to a modded P-pump Cummins? This would just be a cruiser with very limited off road usage. So that should help. Thanks, Dustin.

My question is over the real world power limit of the stock Spicer 3053a. People have a lot of opinions on this transmission but most seem to be based on what the tranny is good for on paper. So my question: Who has, 1st hand, broken a 3053a? And how did you break it? I.E. Your power output...

Thanks. I can't leave anything alone. I though about turboing it but I knew I would go extreme and blow it up. That's why I'm holding out on a Cummins.

I wasn't offended. I understand you're talking about a whole different threat, I just wanted people to know that I wasn't trying to duplicate some impossible power number. Im just having some fun and behind different. Thanks.

I like my multi fuel for what it is, but when the time is right I will be swapping for a 12v 6bt Cummins. And YES it will have a turbo....or two!

Honestly if only gained 5hp I would be happy. This project wasn't meant to set any records or peak any dynos, it was just to be loud and blow copious amounts of smoke in the air. And it does do that!!

Thanks everyone for the feedback. It won't be as good in water as a stock air box, but if I gotta go in a lake I'll just get a boat.

I'm not sure. I tried researching it before I started the project and didn't find any info. In my experience it doesn't make insane power, but enough that it was worth doing.
