You should never get any bubbles when cracking lines. All air should purge after a hard acceleration, even no-load. I don't know how to do a more thorough air leak check than we already did though :-/

Due to the fact that it is perilously close to running out of fuel and needing a throwout bearing, I have not given it any kind of hard acceleration. It runs pretty damn well and doesn't leak fuel, so I will look at that after it's back up and running if it's still an issue.

[mr.mindless]

Even free revving. But that still seems reasonable.

Bubbling seems gone, so does throw out bearing squeal. Thinking I'll replace anyway to avoid trouble down the road.

Boost won't hit 20psi and egt's easily hit 1100 empty now. Suspecting a boost leak as 35psi used to be easy and 900 used to be difficult.

[Harrison]

Runs pretty smooth now though!

Boost leak sounds likely, since AFC wasn't touched. Make sure your air filer isn't plugged up too. Good news all around.

Chad said I was  being too much of an engineer by replacing the throw out bearing if it wasn't making noise just to avoid risk of having it fail far from home.

In that event, he suggested starting moving in 4low on the starter motor, slamming into hi once running, and shifting without the clutch till I got home.

On a side note, $25/qt!!!!!!!!!!!!! for the GOTTA HAVE NV4500 fluid at the dealer. I need a gallon

my truck will launch off the starter in 1st high no problem.  almost hit the house once in the winter lol 

[M4wdFab]

Wonder 1.0 shifted through 1, 2, 3 on the starter once to get it back from the shop lot to my driveway once with a dead CPS and no fire

[Harrison]

Mike are you serious? How fast were you going in 3rd on thr frickin starter??? Hahahaha

Chad gave me the number of a guy wanting to unload a rust free white long bed, $450. Roommate is going to be out that way this weekend with his Burb anyway, hopefully he can just bring his trailer with him too.

[M4wdFab]

no kidding with wonder 1.0 performance.



i was just going to roll in 1st, but i was topped out so i shifted to 2nd, and 3rd lol  was crusing like 10-12 mPH id say by the time i got across the street

[Harrison]

One ball bearing and a shred of steel fell out when I separated the transmission. Guessing the rest had vacated already haha

Also, Southbend was a myth. Luk stamped all over it, probably less than 50%. Good decision to get the kit.





Haven't seen this thing in the daylight yet, but it looks really clean. One spot with a small scrap with surface rust. NBD. Definitely happy.

No tailgate though, Mike I'll be home in two weeks and grab yours if I can!!!

Good call on the clutch and not waiting on the throw out bearing.

Sweet bed looks sweet

[Wingman]

That bearing had another 100k in it.  Put it back in! 

[mr.mindless]

Sounds good!
