Fueling Upgrades & AFC Modifications
This is part 3 of the Project Ram Series
Not even a week after bringing this truck home, I had already started the process of upgrading it.
Immediately after installing gauges to monitor the vitals, I started modifying the P-Pump to boost the horsepower up quite a bit.
Installing Gauges on Project Ram.
This is the 2nd part of the Project Ram Series
If you plan on modifying a diesel, the single most important modification you can do... is to have proper gauges.
If you add adding fuel, your EGTs will increase. If your EGTs go too high, your engine dies.
If your lift pump cannot keep up, you will have a ton of issues dialing in your pump. A fuel pressure gauge monitors this.
If your turbo is not working, You will either make no power, or you will have EGTs through the roof.
For me- the three metrics I need to know are Boost, EGTs, and Fuel Pressure.
Introducing, Project Ram
This, post introduces my newest automotive project.
Project Ram.
No... we aren't building a truck to shamelessly roll coal. Rather....
This, will be a truck, intended to be used as a truck. It will be beefed up a bit, and won't be slow. And, it will be able to haul a 15,000 gooseneck as well.
I am not building a show truck. Just a dead simple, reliable, multi-purpose truck.
