I’m putting one on right now, but it’s brand new build so I have no take as far as drivability. I’ve read online that HE351 is fine and will spool faster, the other side I’ve read is that VE will not make enough power to drive HE351. So dunno
How far can I deck the early Cummins block? I see they make .020 thicker gasket so I imagine at least that far. My thought was decking the block to bump up compression by reducing piston to head clearance. But if I over decked the block then set my clearance by milling the piston tops then I could also reduce bowl volume and further increase compression. Even if I could get away with decking it .030 or .040 I'd be in the money I think
@Robert Winkworth it’s been sitting for a bit after I finished building it, wanted to circulate some oil while it’s sitting, waiting for fuel system to be done
Wondering if anyone knows any machine shops that are equipped to make a female - male involuted spline stub shaft. Most shops here with HAAS won’t take anything under 6K order, and I need just a few of those spline shafts. Let me know! Haven’t been able to find anything so far with about a dozen RFQs. I’m in Sacramento CA
