The other week I finally got my pump back from the shop. So me and my neighbor started to install the pump with much excitment since it had bin almost 3 months wait. And boy did we get a suprize!!!
Finally get it on . Prime it . Check timing . Check throttle linkage. Check stop,double check stop! Started it popped right off ,idled nicely for having 13 mm plunngers.
My neighbor pointed out some leaks so we shut it down and fixed the leaks. Started it again reved it to about 10 to get any air out of system itapped it a couple times to see some smoke!!
Then i matted it for just couple Seconds to see how black it gets?
Well to my Suprize IT RAN WILD!!!!!!!!!
Pull The Stop and NOTHING HAPPENED . Wanted to block off turbo but did not have intake tube off. By the time I ran into Shop to get Some thing to cut fuel hoses the left Header was glowing red! and there was a hole in valve cover on right side . At that piont i decided there was nothing left to do but watch in desbelief! Because I was not Going any where near that . Finally the Air cooler tube blew off at the Turbo shutting off the moter. and this is what found .Num 5 PistonCyd Head note hole in valveall but three push rods look like this. Plus the Fins in Turbo are Burned off . Still have to get injectors checked. Moter out of 86 waiting for paint .
I still don't know what went wrong. Took pump back they said the govenor looks ok but they havent gotten it on the stand yet. My go to guy for all things V8 thinks one of the Plunngers was sucking oil.

try to unhook the puff limiter
-
When you release parking brake it puts air to the valve so your rack can only travel a little. When you start to build boost it turns off air flow to puff limiter then lets the rack move the hole way. If you want it guicker you can un screw limiter from front of pump and add washers or disconnect the line from parking valve and plug it to make lots of smoke!!!!

That would be a nice rw to find with a KT, someone on here had a friend who owned one.I don't no if it was factory built.
He told me he checked serial# with mack . and it was factory. Still have not made down to his shop to get a pic.

know what you mean , i'm in the middle of upgrading my pump

parts are parts , not like you can go to dealer and order new one.

last year he told me $4000 , today he said he wants to buy a truck , so he might take less if you have cash.
