Typo. Should have been 10psi or little less. When I was loaded with about 7k, I was seeing 15-20 pulling some hills with egt 700-800 at 65mph.- 907_Chevy

Boost was about 20psi and egts were about 700-800 if i remember correctly. They didnt seem to bad. Forgot to mention, we have winter fuel so I do expect to pick up a little in the summer. As mentioned above only considering becasue might have cheap rear with disc brakes with 3.73- 907_Chevy

Yea, I know its a big brick but also figured low teens based on friends dodge on 37s. I have a lead on a 14 bolt with disc brakes and 3.73 that might be able to pick up for cheap so would only need to regear front. That was only reason I was considering changing.- 907_Chevy

1991 Chevy V3500 Cummins
Well I got it finished and to say the least I have had a few drivetrain set backs/breakage. Right now I'm getting 9 to 11 mpg. I expected it to be a little better than that. After seeing this mileage, I purchased an AFC live. I have only been able to play with it for one longer trip and some...- 907_Chevy

Getting some progress. Been a fight, I thought I was only going to have to repair cab corners, but further looking it needs driver bottom rocker and passenger fender has rust through where battery tray mounts and the lower part. I am planning to just cut lower out and weld tube to it as a rocker...- 907_Chevy

Yea the plan is to use the dodge radiator, intercooler and possibly the condenser. Which condenser will just depend on which fits better. I have watched few videos and the dodge radiator works well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk- 907_Chevy

Well there has been progress slow but progress. Far as motor I put on the new tappet cover, delivery valves, killer dowel pin, freeze plugs, coolant bypass, and lots of paint done. The paint itself was a nightmare. The blue would change half way through the can. I thought I got a bad can so...- 907_Chevy

1991 Chevy V3500 Cummins
Thank you for the suggestion. It will be probably half and half. I typically use it just for hauling and towing right now but I have the feeling after I do the swap I will be driving it a lot more. I have heard they are loud, I was going with it so I didn't have to upgrade later when/if I start...- 907_Chevy

I have a set of the extendable stock looking mirrors. I have considered using west coast mirror. I typically do not like the newer mirror on the square body Chevys but the one in the picture below I think looks good however the drawback is you lose the wing window. Thank you, I will keep you in...- 907_Chevy

1991 Chevy V3500 Cummins
It started as a 1991 Chevy V3500 with a 350 mated to a SM465 and NP205. My family bought it in 2000 and drove it up from Wyoming to Alaska, I finally convinced my Dad to sell it to me in 2011. It is a pretty clean truck with rust on the cab corners and a little on the bed. Two years ago, I...- 907_Chevy
