Re: 68 c10 6.5 turbo diesel

I have not posted anything in a while it seems. Truck has tons of miles on it with 0 issues tell now. One oil cooler line is leaking. I decided to remove the oil cooler and install a new aluminum radiator with oil cooler in it. The radiator has electric fans and shroud. The oil stays cool so being able to bring up to temp will be a plus. The engine runs super cool and egt's are never near max. Still have not installed the 4l80 yet. Truck cruises just fine and runs awesome. I did have the FFM blow apart at the bottom. I deleted the FFM and ran a better pre filter. I also redid the Fuel line into the IP.

Just read the first post with the "mild 27psi". That is not mild on a 6.5.
