as a trash truck mechanic who does diesel work everyday seeing this video warms my heart seeing some diesel content. personally loved all of the. race truck videos
No way. I never thought of that. You're right. Rain/thunder calms me down. Perfect setting in the garage when the alternative is throwing a wrench instead 😂😂
Dude i commented the same thing i really hope he buys it! I learned the hard way and cost me 16k for a crate engine after one little nut destroyed mine
As a 6.7 Cummins owner and a diesel mechanic. I would recommend arp head studs on it and get the head o ring. Then get the injector test or just replace them and replace the balancer since do a rebuild on it
I bought a 2008, 2500, 6.7L about 14 months ago, it had 360000km when I got it, 14 months later I just passed 485000km. These trucks are actually nuts. You can push them so hard, and they love it.
True, stuff does break, but you kinda have to expect that approaching half a million KM. I just moved from Niagara Falls Ont, to Regina Sask, and took the route north of Lake Superior, its like 3 days straight of all mountains, 15-18 hour days, every other trip i had a load north of 10000lbs including trailer, stuff gets hot when you're running that long, and still, I had very minimal issues. A front wheel bearing, did the brakes once, and blew a tire on the truck, and a few trailer tires. Not bad for a 15 year old truck really.
I hope this video gets more views because as fun as it is to see NSX's get 1500 HP setups... its still awesome to see everyday diesels get love too. Most of the viewers wish they had that truck and all of us would spend the time and rebuild it if we could. Thanks for the content
Highly recommend doing some deletes for the next motor. Upgraded pushrods, turbo, injectors, 10mm pump, GRID HEATER DELETE (they tend to break apart and go right into the motor), studs. Then give her all the beans my friend 👍🏻
These guys deserve a Bro-ship award, a key to the city so to speak. Good to see homies coming up together,would be elite to see Hayden and Brent with their shops all in one big complex 💪🏽 I'd weld a metal strap up and over the engine stand swivel point if having motors like that on there becomes more regular haha
So excited about this build series's, i know most know dont remember it but I've been waiting to see the ol cummins make a come back 👊 also like the guy always says in the comments Bring back the prelude !!!
as a fellow diesel engine builder and enthusiast it always make me happy to see peoples reactions to how big and heavy they are and how over built these engines are
BoostedBoiz surrounded by things from Brazil and that's awesome. The block was cast in Brazil, in the state where I live, Santa Catarina. The company is called Tupy and is “specialized in the development and manufacture of highly engineered cast iron structural components”. Keep it up guys
@@commonsenseisdeadin2024 it’s give or take 😂, I started this journey 2 years ago at the Cleetus and cars in INDY. He told me to keep going with it this past event in May lol.
I’m absolutely loving this explosion of boostedboiz content! I watch everything that y’all upload and there for awhile it was few and far between. This is much better. I get trying to make better videos that take longer to make but I love this “everyday with the boiz” style lol
Also, if you are doing any turbo stuff, the fleece cheetah is a phenomenal upgrade over stock and doesn't change tuning requirements. I've installed a bunch of them and every customer has loved them. They come with a new actuator and it's pre-calibrated.
I bought a 2g gst with 4 rod knocks and it was elderly owned since new. The bearings were worse than that haha. The crank and rod caps had grand canyons in them.
Hey kyle! if you want to know my theory, number 6 cylinder got too hot overtime causing the rod bolt to stretch enough for bearing clearances to self destruct. the 6.7 has a common issue with number 6 getting hot because the coolant intake flows from the from of the front of block then exits back out the front on the other side, however there is no directional flow it's just suppoed to make it to the rear somehow and then come back around, well as you are learning it doesn't do that very well. Look into the Fleece coolant bypass system for the rebuild! its a motherFer to put that thing on with the engine in the car but a necessary upgrade for any tuned Cummins, i was surprised you didn't have one already. ALSO delete that stupid grid heater! and get a delete plate or one day you will suck a nut into number 6 and be back here all over again. Cheers and good luck!
My guess is that it was a bad previous rebuild and they didn't bother checking bearing clearances! They probably ordered factory bearings and the crank was ground! The bolt was probably loose because it was getting hammered out! The reason only 1 was is the C shape design caps.
That’s always a good guess if it’s the back cylinder that’s the issue of any longitudinal setup. Retains heat in the back of the engine bay and usually coolant routing doesn’t favor it.
Kyle thanks so freaking much for posting videos so often recently. Really look forward to any single video you post, and the surge in videos has been absolutely amazing 👏
For those engines they sell a piece that goes on the back of cylinder #6 removing the water seal and what the piece does is that it helps cool that water that remains so far back and never gets completely cold. This part has a tube that reaches the front intake and carries the water from the back to the radiator more efficiently. ✌🏼 Take care boys!
I really enjoyed them trucks. We had 2wd duallies with the big 6 speed manual. Ripping 2nd and 3rd gear burnouts towing the ditchwitch and trailer fully frieghted. Go Maxum irrigation. Smoking off brand new tires doing long drift donuts on the limiter.
Them moving the truck back out at the end had me cracking up 😂 Great content, just you guys being you and having a laugh and giving each other a bit of shit haha
As someone who knows very little about diesels, i found this pretty interesting. Somehow when you first got the cybertruck, i was waiting for this truck to see the light of day again.....😂,
