For closure on this thread, I did get the jakes and turbo on, Look for a thread in the 5 ton Hot Rodding/ Mods section "M816 Jakes and Turbo" Thanks to Will for his insites and advice.

I thought about this, but the jake switches are also 12v, thus Im going with the 12v solenoids and wiring the setup on its own 12v lead from the dedicated 12v fuse block off a single battery. side note, the intake heater plug on the military 250 is 12v as its wired directly from a single...

Ive been on hold for several weeks working on house related stuff. but I did manage to get another jake put back together the other nite only to test the solenoids for the jakes and find they arent up to par. new one from Cummins yesterday was $103. Got a rebuilt Schwitzer 4LHR turbo in the...

Got one jake rebuilt !!!!! The before and after and nite and day. the dirty head in the pics is the cleanest one of the three. Rocker boxes and the other two jake heads are at the machine shop getting tanked and blasted. Cant wait to get these mounted and working. Do believe the NTC 350...

Ive read the sticky on the valve adjustment but without opening up the rockers and visually looking at it all, it didnt make much sense,(im visual and hands on learner, Thus no pictures no understand) I know how the engine works, but the "I" "V" and knowing what kind of injectors I have is the...

so by bringing the rocker boxes and jakes from the 350 over to the 250 should prevent this.???? its been a few weeks since I had the valve covers off the 350, I may have to go refresh my memory as to what it looks like in there... I did not get any switches with the core engine, I have the...

I was refering to every little set screw in these jakes has been removed, seals, plungers, oil passages, clips etc. the center actuator has a set screw that comesup from the bottom and I had to continually tighten then loosen to get it and the actuator out, thus the factory setting of X turns...

Yes, Will... I would rather have the Holset, however this salvage yard guy is a slickster, I will likely rebuild the VT for now untill I can find a good ht3b that I can go through in my spare time... Now I just need the reassembly specs for this jake head that I have scattered all over my...

Talked to Blaylock turbo in KS and they will sell me a turbo cartridge for around $300 for the VT50, rebuilt and ready to install on my snail shells. The local yard here had a BHT3B used on a core engine he wanted $400 for plus my locked up core for replacement on his engine that was going to a...

according to Cummins its a small cam NTC 350, Big cam was usually cast into the block and I havent run across any casting that resembles those words.

Got a jake and the aftercooler pulled last nite... the jake is scuzzy but the residual old oil looks to be doing its job... good cleaning and a jake kit and this should be ok... the aftercooler looks intact, will pull it apart soon and have it pressure tested... Turbo is still pretty sad... the...

Hoping to be able to rebuild the bottom end of the 350 and pull parts from my 250 to make a complete engine. This 350 was supposedly pulled due to a rod knock or (they said it tossed a rod). the guys son had all kinds of logging equip at one time and they are both world class cobblers of crap...

Got the NTC 350 from a 77 OTR truck yesterday. Thing supposedly has a rod hangning in it but I find no damage to the oil pan or block, need to pull the pan and look. I bought the thing from an old farmer for the turbo setup, aftercooler, and the 25A Jake setup. so for $200 I aint out much if...
