Looking good! I might be gettin my hands dirty soon too, my poor little 5.3 doesn't feel any better after my catch can mod. She is still sick and puking out the dip stick tube. Getting flight for life ready with a 6.0 transplant.

 

Well.....it seems i only need 2 small phenolic spacers damn countersunk the valley cover for nada...

I have about 28K on the blower 35K on the truck, no catch can (can you tell?)

 

So now what, you walking home?

 

Did you use the same spacers from the 112 on the fuel rails. To get them the right height for your 60's?

Saw the spacers in Grippy's thread. Wondered what was up with that.

 

Rick was nice enough to give me a ride in his truck, 30 minutes out of his way.

Yes, we had to shim them but not as much as on the 112 by like a 1/16" less. (guesstimate)
Wish I had read that thread in entirety before making the trip up north to Synergy. I should have checked inventory before pulling the 112

Thanks Patrick (EvilGMC) for the pic and helping to understand what the hangup was. Good talking with you!

 

I suspect the spacers will also help with heat sink. Plastic and phenolic in particular are great insulators.

 

Lookin' good Bill!

I can't wait for some of these install to be done. It'll be interesting to hear comparisons between the 112 and 1900. I already have some of my own but, mine are also comparing two different vehicles.

 

I am looking forward to the comparisons too. Size wise, there only a 4ci difference between the 2. (1900cc=115.95ci vs MP 112) It will be interesting to see just how efficient the 1900 is over the MP112.

 

I can tell you right now that IAT wise the 1900 blows the 112 clean outta the water.

It also seems to like to be spun hard.

 

I cant wait either! I don't expect the 3.3" pulley to make more boost, maybe I can get a 3.2" shipped with my spacers. Yeah Roger, i didn't think of that but you are right, less heat soak thermally conducted.
