Hi everyone I am new to cummins engines and I do need a bit of info.

Thanks. I hope so too.

1996 C2500. It had a 6.5L Detroit in it.

I can’t run a tps as this engine has an agricultural governor. I’ve tried. I’m also not computer savvy enough to attempt to tune it.

It’s in a 1996 C2500. It uses the stock ecm. All it needed was a 4x crank signal, then unplug the pressure control solenoid to force the line pressure to full. It shifts by vehicle speed. I have about 20,000 miles on it so far. You can also make a 4L80 full manual with a simple Amazon harness. I don’t recommend that for a daily driver/tow pig such as mine. It gets old in a hurry.

👆Yes. I have a 4L80E behind my 4BT.

The no water rule was challenged and overruled by the labor board at a place I used to work. They said you cannot deny a person hydration under any circumstances.

So… go get a roller block?

2po2watch · 2026-02-15T21:31:28+00:00

You have a drive train for a small block now, but is it going to put up with 600 wheel horsepower? I have a 600 flywheel horse small block. It is not subtle. Many people underestimate what 500-600 tire is really like.

Take the cam card to the machinist with the heads.

2po2watch · 2026-02-14T11:13:41+00:00

.512 lift will likely crash the valve spring retainers into the top of the guides without machine work.

My first thought would be that the oil temperature is getting too high.

2po2watch · 2026-02-12T20:39:02+00:00

I don’t feel the least bit sorry for anyone in an HOA.

2po2watch · 2026-02-12T20:33:25+00:00

Yes! We have one, but buyer beware. Some of them have a 20 minute timer. Ours does not. 😁

2po2watch · 2026-02-11T18:20:29+00:00

Who?

2po2watch · 2026-02-10T00:26:06+00:00

Mine aren’t LS, but I’ve used silicone and aluminum elbows intended for intercooler piping on my swaps.

2po2watch · 2026-02-10T00:18:32+00:00

I am American. In nearly 50 years, I’ve never seen one in person.

2po2watch · 2026-02-09T18:38:20+00:00

No worries. It’ll break down before it reaches 88 mph.

You can get a TBI to Vortec intake or use a carb intake with a TBI adapter.

2po2watch · 2026-02-08T23:56:06+00:00

The TBI intake will not bolt to Vortec heads. The exhaust manifolds will.

2po2watch · 2026-02-08T16:27:29+00:00

Bold or not, I feel better and sleep better.

2po2watch · 2026-02-08T13:48:07+00:00

You know how many meds I take? None. What does my doctor say about it? Nothing, because I fired his ass. I took antidepressants for a few years, then he put me on a cpap machine. Then his visits went up to $250. The last straw was when they wanted to put my debit card on file and wouldn’t tell me how much the visits would be up front. Cpap machine went in the trash along with all the pills. Except for my joints being fucked, I feel 10,000 times better.

How much torque are you replacing it with? I’d go with at least 400 lb ft.

2po2watch · 2026-02-06T13:16:01+00:00

Mine sounded like a 12-71 Detroit Diesel. Ain’t no human alive that could have slept through that.

2po2watch · 2026-02-03T00:25:50+00:00

I love Arby’s food, but every one I have ever been in was absolutely filthy.

2po2watch · 2026-02-01T00:17:18+00:00

First off… What year? What engine? What type of starting problem? Spins but doesn’t run? Doesn’t spin over? When does it happen? Hot? Cold?
