Lincoln makes good welders. We have an old arc passed down in the family from the 1930's still working well. Great video here, you show every step of the way and how you got around challenges that arose in the project.
You do good work, my friend!! I like the mechanical spring gate for your waste gate. Obviously, you'll have to dial it in. But, I like your thinking, in that, it is mechanical and not dependant on a solenoid to actuate, to increase of decrease your boost pressure. Good Job!!
Appreciate the detailed video sir. I am considering the HE351 on my 1998 12valve. I tow a lot, and with my nv4500, I’d like as little lag as possible. I would probably run a traditional wastegate actuator myself.
I have a 12 valve with a p pump, I wonder if I could just block both of the holes on the compressor housing and run waste gate with the pressure of the pump itself like it does with the WH1C that it has.
Great video! I learned a lot. I'm trying to decide between upgrading my turbo to either an HX35 or 40. I already put in a fuel pin, 3200 rpm spring and timing advance. What are your thoughts? Thanks again for the great video!!
I don't know anything about the 40, all i can say is that i was pretty happy with my 35 with a 12cm exhaust housing! my 351 is OK, the pump currently needs some tuning to make it happier.
i had the problem of my boots blowing off too when i threw on a hx35, so instead of buying "nicer" ones, i just went and had the tube ends flared out a bit. Hasnt been an issue since.
It would have helped if my ends were flared, but the boot that blew off was a smooshy old junk one and i think the oil from the leaking turbo helped it along too!
It's just something i picked up at a hardware store. Just get an idea for what it looks like and what size it is, and try to buy a comparable one. I will say it's a pretty damn heavy spring!
How did you clock your compressor housing to go under your air intake? I have the issue where the intercooler inlet is right next to the air inlet and cant put my intercooler piping on it
Is that intercooler pipe from third GEN? I just bought a 62/71/12 it has a third gen Style outlet on the turbo and I don’t know how to hook up my inner cooler. I’m thinking a third GEN would line it up
Nothing, but you should always add gauges when modifying these trucks. This turbo alone won't do much, you get more power from giving it more fuel. An upgraded turbo will be able to supply extra air to go along with extra fuel if you do fueling upgrades as well.
It works, but the pump needs some tuning to make the motor happier and less smoky.... but it runs, is better than the 14cm HX35 that was on there, and i have too many other projects!
Someone on Instagram before he sold his first gen had the same turbo. He had 60lb valve springs, a 4200 governor spring and 75hp injectors. He said it didn't scream really loud until after those modifications. He also had a VE pump
I have bigger injectors, but i don't see how the valve or gov springs would make a difference on turbo noise. we'll see soon enough. I'll try to make another couple driving videos too!
Did you get your pump tuned? How's the power and response now? I have a cummins swap with a non intercooled and am planning the same mods as you. I want it to pull well and stay cool while towing. That's why I'm asking. Thank you.
Not yet, it's too cold out and i have too many other projects. As it is though, it's a lot better than the HX35 with the 14cm housing. You'll like these mods... turbo and intercooler really wake up the truck!
themadmailler That's good to hear. Also my stock injectors seem worn and I was debating on getting the marine 370's from the hungry diesel or just reman stock non intercooled. Not sure what would be better for towing. Thank you for input. And I sometimes forget that it's still winter time this time of year. It's 80 frigin degrees here in Houston today.
haha... we had a warm day here of about 45! The 370's work ok, sometimes i think that a 6X10 (370's are 5X12) injector would help with the haze i have - it only clears up when the motor is hot and at full operating temp.
themadmailler lol. We don't have lows at 45 very often. Well, I'll keep it in mind. I might just get mine pop tested and go from there. These non intercooled injectors do flow alot. Thank you. Good videos.
Nice, well done. I had no clearence problems with the turbo flange stud. Do you know the correct spray pattern for 1gens? are the none Ic and ic'd the same?
Ok thanks, will have to check mine so I got that correct. blowing massive impeneterable white clouds of smoke when I step on the gas after injector/turbo change. But no garage so thats for a warmer season.
strange. Maybe my studs are shorter and newer first gens differ from mine (i think mine was made february of 1989). And yes, as Jeremy said the spray patterns are different, and if you get aftermarket injectors you need to verify spray angle or you risk smoke, high egt's, etc.
Also need to remember that on the 1st gen NonIntercooled the Nozzle Diameter was bigger then on the later Intercooled Engines. As well as a different spray pattern.
The non-IC'd engines had a SMALLER nozzle diameter than the intercooled first gens. When i did my injector swap, I had to buy special bushings to drop down into the nozzle bore because the nozzle tips were sized for the IC'd trucks (Though the spray angle was still correct). I think the non-IC nozzles are 7mm and IC'd are 9mm, or somethine like that.

I really enjoy how informative your videos are! By the way I really like how you have a mechanical actuator!

Well I stole your idea for the spring bracket. Did same swap in my 93 5 speed w250. Very happy
I ran into the same problem with those studs I changed them to longer ones and that fix the problem
If you see this, what size did your get and where from? Going from non/ic to ic with a 3rd gen 24v turbo…
It is always fun cold starting diesels too. We have a 6.5l turbo diesel and a lb7 duramax and I have some fun with them!
very informative thank you
Thanks for watching!

THANK YOU THANK YOU and THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! :)
glad this helped!
i had the problem of my boots blowing off too when i threw on a hx35, so instead of buying "nicer" ones, i just went and had the tube ends flared out a bit. Hasnt been an issue since.
It would have helped if my ends were flared, but the boot that blew off was a smooshy old junk one and i think the oil from the leaking turbo helped it along too!
It helps to run a weld bead around the edge of the tube so as to act as a flare, simple fix.
I thought about doing that! good idea. If i have a problem with the tube I made I'll do that, but for the time being i think it's just fine.
Where did you get your intake horn? I need one like that
It would be nice to know what size spring you used for the right tension size or even the brand and part number would work ?????????
It's just something i picked up at a hardware store. Just get an idea for what it looks like and what size it is, and try to buy a comparable one. I will say it's a pretty damn heavy spring!
How did you clock your compressor housing to go under your air intake? I have the issue where the intercooler inlet is right next to the air inlet and cant put my intercooler piping on it
I don't recall, I don't have the truck any more, but i believe the inlet was somewhere around 6:00. you'll need to modify your intercooler piping.
Is that intercooler pipe from third GEN? I just bought a 62/71/12 it has a third gen Style outlet on the turbo and I don’t know how to hook up my inner cooler. I’m thinking a third GEN would line it up
Hey boss, what upgrades did you have to make to the truck so you can run that turbo comfortably without having to worry about messing anything up
Nothing, but you should always add gauges when modifying these trucks. This turbo alone won't do much, you get more power from giving it more fuel. An upgraded turbo will be able to supply extra air to go along with extra fuel if you do fueling upgrades as well.
Can you put this on a 2011 rt challenger classic?anyone?
So it's now been 5 months since your Turbo upgrade. It'd be nice of you to post any updates as to the outcome since the upgrade? Thanks
It works, but the pump needs some tuning to make the motor happier and less smoky.... but it runs, is better than the 14cm HX35 that was on there, and i have too many other projects!
Nice!! I setup a compound setup with my HE351 as my secondary turbo, I used your wastegate trick and it works really nice.
@@easytopleez33 what other turbo did use with your compound set up?
One could use a fish or luggage scale to set the spring pull pressure no?
yes, but lbs of pull is not directly related to release pressure. you'd need to do some math.
@@themadmailler Makes sense, might as well just wing it then.
Nice informational video! That's odd that it wasn't loud. Usually on all the other videos they scream
I know! I'm assuming they took out the silencer ring, which is what I will do later on and see what the difference is.

I was gonna ask if ya were gonna do some driving videos. That's cool. Sometime down the road I'm gonna buy a first gen for a project

Do you know the correct spray pattern for 1gens? are the none Ic and ic'd the same?
the none Ic are a 155 and the Icd are a 145 the bowl on the none Ic are bigger than the Icd
Ok thanks, will have to check mine so I got that correct. blowing massive impeneterable white clouds of smoke when I step on the gas after injector/turbo change. But no garage so thats for a warmer season.

Think I could do the same set up on my second gen Cummins?
probably, they are nearly identical motors.
How did you get the snap ring for the housing back on
Don't think I ever took it off, but any snap ring just goes on the way it came off.
@@themadmailler thanks I finally got it on. How much boost have you been making since I got the spring adjusted to your needs.
@@Zf6_Dmax i don't have the truck any more, but i think i was making about 28 psi.
@@themadmailler what did your EGT's look like.
What year is your truck seems older than my 92
89. They had this nose style from 89 to early 90.
what spring did you use?
Just something I got from the hardware store, as i remember.
