    Not sure why it didn't work. It's a BW 171702 turbo that starts out with a smaller than 115 housing then is supposed to open up to the 132 at 8lbs of boost.

    Took the switchblade turbo off put my old one back on now getting about 34lbs of boost
  3. 880joe
    Problem fixed

    New line put on no boost leaks now,gauge checked for accuracy and still only about 22lbs of boost

    Found 2 holes in the fresh air line from intake to air compressor,charge air cooler tested good. Not put the new line on yet but the holes on the old appear to have been there for a while so not sure that that is all my issue.

    I have a 99 CH with a 355/380 just replaced heads and put on the switchblade turbo,full tilt exhaust manifold and rochester 2.5 injectors now I'm only getting alot of smoke and only about 20lbs of boost. Before the head job I was running full tilt manifold 75hp K&S injectors and a 460 non waste gated turbo and would get some smoke and around 30lbs of boost. Any ideas or thoughts where I went wrong

    Someone on here was telling about a place selling eup's for less than 300 if I remember right

    I can't get pictures to post on here so if you want to send me an email or phone number I can send it to you that way

    So are you needing transmission mounts from an RL with a 2 stick 6 speed?
  11. 880joe
    Can this be done by just changing the front cover so a/c compressor and accessories are in correct location and an ecm reprogramming. Or will I run into other obstacles
  12. 880joe
    After about 100 miles of driving you could see a little bit of smoke residue where it was leaking
  13. 880joe
    No reason you can't use the one you have from the etech

    I thought peak torque was around 1100 rpm on those. Probably came out with a 5,6,7,or 8 speed mack transmission when new
  15. 880joe
    I had a similar situation and it was the gasket between the turbo and exhaust manifold

    I'm not having any luck with the pictures, if you want me to text them or email them you can text me your info at 417-880-4862.

    Well I'm working on getting pictures loaded

    Here is a picture of the headlight and turn signal for a CH almost positive the RD uses same headlight just 4 screws that holds it in.
  19. 880joe
    You working on an RD is that correct? I think Wilbur is talking about CHs. Maybe I'm confused
  20. 880joe
    are they not the same as the new ch uses
  21. 880joe
    The light and turn signal are separate pieces
  22. 880joe
    I've saw those after market LED lights advertised for the CH mack but I don't think they will actually fit better make sure b4 ordering. The olney LED ones I found that fit are the new ones from Mack
  23. 880joe
    Pretty sure they use the same headlight
  24. 880joe
    Would the variable geometry turbo be stuck in wrong position?
  25. 880joe
    He didn't drive fast for sure averaged less than 2mph
