Just found your show, love it , I'm the original owner of a 97 F 350 with a standard transmission 192000 on the clock, in Alaska, love the show

Sick as Hell dude, can’t wait to get my superduty finished. 7tree for life

[@bobevans6590]

Love the genius wood work. You should carve a ford emblem and burn it in! Just my 2 pennies! Love the hard work you put in to detail! Keep on “ stroking”

[@dustycows]

To clear the wiper motor you may need some new new body mounts (poly work good) or possibly a body lift. You can cut some High density nylon sheeting for the body lift and drill the appropriate holes for your bolts. Using a hole saw to cut the sheeting round. This will give you amount of clearance you need without getting to high depending on the thickness needed. Hockey pucks with drilled holes for the body bolts work too.

[@The73Garage]

Awesome! Thank you for the input, I’ll try a few things out👍🏻

[@williamfabiano543]

Cleanest 7.3 I've ever seen. Nice big turbo, get that thing on the dyno!

[@robperkins2674]

wow that thing runs cold....very nice truck

[@stevenray4496]

Badass obs and a 300. Livin the life

[@tc1254]

Get a heat blanket if you don’t already have one it will spoil the turbo quicker also

[@The73Garage]

I had one on the old turbo but it fell apart, might do one this time! Appreciate the suggestion!

Hope you enter the diesel challenge with this masterpiece. Great work

Big single life 💪 totally different world but I'm running a 488/96/1.32 on my 2006 Cummins but going from a stock to 467 then 472 I learned how to drive around the big single a gated/ratchet shifter where you control shifts helps a ton and more then enough fuel and a looser converter

[@grobe6284]

That 300zx doe👀👀

[@Content7.3]

I like your videos. I like how you said “encourage it” when talking about the fire wall. I use the term “convince it” I have a question about 7.3s. Have you ever heard of someone using a common rail injection system on a 7.3 psd? I’ve seen mechanical injection but I was just curios if anyone has successful done a common rail system.

[@damianjohnson7130]

Instantly subbed before I own a obs too

[@CountryCar5]

Good Job Pal. Looks clean also.

[@The73Garage]

Thanks 👍

[@jolvindoblado]

Hey Here a quick question , can you believe is possible to put a 6.0 turbo with a wicked wheel on-a 2002 f250 7.3 ? . Please help out with this question .

[@spoolbusben1356]

Nice work my dude.

[@The73Garage]

Thank you!

[@motivejiujitsuacademy1305]

Hey, what’s up man I see a lot of your videos on KZbin. I have a 7.3 diesel that a rebuilt. And I don’t have the power I used to have with the truck. I did the 08 swaps would the gearing be the issue?

[@ronmeyer8770]

[@rustyprojectsgarage2490]

Would a body lift give you the clearance you need with the turbo and wiper motor, not sure but it was the first thing that came to mind

Awesome video!! I was wondering about your video on the plastic 6.0 style fan upgrade have you noticed a difference in temps? If so how much? And does it seem like the engine doesn’t vibrate as much? Keep pumping out awesome content!!!!

[@The73Garage]

It has way less drag on the rotating assembly, definitely can feel the difference! Its worth the $130!

[@alvarezcarlosca86]

What intake are you running in your truck?

[@mulletmanhunter7051]

I would do a 1/2 body lift or try to lover the mountain on the turbo

[@adamm74]

Fresh body mounts help a ton. I had to do no hammering when getting my 467 (yes it’s smaller but only slightly) when I put fresh body mounts in. But with the irate kits you can lower the mount. It’s fixed

[@The73Garage]

I actually have the new body mounts in the garage, just need to install them! lol

[@sjipman]

Did you put the turbo in assembled or did you first take the ext housing, cartridge, then comp housing?

[@The73Garage]

I put it in as a unit. Didn’t want to risk having the cover off an bumping the compressor wheel. Seen that a few times😅

[@sjipman]

@@The73Garage yup, I see the risk. Let me inform you, it doesn't work any other way anyway. I tried them all and it was only a complete turbo that was possible. I didn't like that alternative cause then you have a pretty difficult access to the upper right t4 bolt. I had to cut my 17mm to make it work. I don't know if it makes a difference compared to an obs but I have an excursion. It was tight in any possible way. Grinded plenum bolt head and the whole deal.

[@kingchrisss777]

What’s a good turbo for 180/100 injectors upgraded fuel system and upgraded HPOP

[@The73Garage]

If you decide to go T4 mount a s366 or s369sxe would be a bad little unit. If you want to do a drop in turbo a @kcturbos 300x would be good too.

Seen about 40psi of boost so far. Still need to make some tuning adjustments, its something to get used to as a daily driver lol.

[@MrPowderEater]

Does anyone know if a stock .84 exhaust housing will fit on a GTP38R with a 1.0 exhaust housing? I want quicker spool up is why I ask. The 38R doesn’t really make more than 12 psi until 2,000 rpm then it lights

My ford trans guy said always keep over drive off unless ur over 60. And I think it even says it in the manual

[@460FordBronco79]

That’s probably a good practice on a stock trans. With a built unit you don’t have to worry about it.

[@codyg1662]

Way too many rpms for a lower geared truck. 4.10s in mine and I can drive around in overdrive goin 35mph.

[@davidmoore8741]

@@460FordBronco79 depends on how it's programmed. Still is reccomanded for a street truck. Unless it's a full blown race truck trans. That's what I was told from monster and sun coast trans

[@460FordBronco79]

@@davidmoore8741 I'd say it depends more on how it's built. I know my overdrive clutches are astronomically bigger than stock. Like 300% or something like that. Brian told me my truck would have zero issues towing in overdrive even at lower rpm. Then again BTS transmissions are all pretty much a "full race truck" transmission. The only factory part he leaves is the shell lol.
