Who's rebuilding that for you and where you located

[@ItBeVonBee]

The non waste gated turbo, you stated that that’s not what you needed? Why is that? What’s the difference between waste and non waste gated turbos?

[@zaidchalabi1599]

where you got those hoses on coolant lines ? they look cool with shiny edges

[@bmg295]

Are you planning to make a video on what shop you used and cost? I'm wondering what I should be paying for a inframe on a 12.7 detroit. Thank you

[@TruckerAK]

Well I could make a video like that but I used a mechanic that works out of his own garage doesn’t really have like a real shop with a address. But a normal inframe with labor should run about 8500 bucks normally

[@truckermick8497]

@@TruckerAK where os that mechanic located at? Looking for a inframe also?

What Model Detroit 12.7L is it? Did You put in a Different Exhaust Manifold as well? Who did the Detroit Motor Swap? Was it the Guys You did the Video about Swapping out The Mercedes Motor?
