  1. Probably an axle. Probably one of the long side axles.  We have had them brake clean and make no sound after the initial snap, and we have had them brake ruff and grind.  Get a 5-6ft piece of threaded rod or a stick and tape some good magnets to the end, a cow magnet works really good.  And put it down the axle tube into the housing and clean out all the metal pieces you can before putting the new axle back in.

  2. We did this swap with our 94 300.  We put in a fuller 9L, with the original 5.73 gears it would top out at 62mph at 2100rpm.  We ran it that way for a few years, but we run tandem dumps and max gross in georgia is 64k, so we eventually put 4.64 rears in it.  Turned the pump up a little and she runs like a 350. You need new tranny mounts, and driveshaft.

  3. We have had an eecm take a crap on us out of the blue on 1 of our cat motors.  The truck was running great, shut it off on a job site and it would not start.  Spent 2 days trying everything under the sun to no avail.  Finally got an eecm out of a wrecked truck and it fired right up.

  4. I'm sure some people won't like my response, but get  it running with starting fluid for 10-20 seconds and it should pull the fuel up.  I've had to do it with my ami 370 after filter change.  I did everything you've done and still had to spray it.  Just be careful with the starting fluid, giving it just enough to run.

  5. Hopefully that is ledgible, all the injector numbers to get you whatever you need.  Thanks to mackpro.  Or mack tech, I can't remember which one I got them from, but they both have been a HUGE help to me and a lot of people on here.

  6. I have a ami370, put on an etech exhaust manifold, went to the 427/460 injectors from k&s thanks to mack tech and they were great to deal with, and had the local turbo shop build an s467 with a billet wheel.  The truck makes 44psi of boost and runs like a monster, fun to drive now.

  7. The good fuel pressure doesn't mean that there is not a problem with an eup.  I had a loader that was hard starting, replaced batteries, tried priming it, did everything I could think of, nothing helped.  Then the starter went out, the bearing on the gear on the flywheel side was worn slap out.  Causing it to bind and drag just enough to slow it down, but not enough to make an audible difference.  Replaced the starter and it fires off fast now.   We have never had that problem with a truck, but you never know.

  8. I have been really happy with it, nothing like catching a cat powered pete or kw on a hill or at a red light and then running away from them as they look at you in bewilderment.  One of these days I'm going to get it dynoed again and see what she is really doing.
