DallasNice build, where in Texas are you?

Probably but it's the best i can do right now. Once the shocks get tuned i'll change the routing of the rez and make it so it can be mounted elsewhere.wouldnt the extra heat from the engine reduce the life of the shock?
According to who lol? You tell everyone their “opinion doesn’t matter”, and yet every post you’re throwing out your opinion as if it’s a fact. @GordoJay and I explained why your statement was inaccurate and not at all practical, but you continue to argue against the facts because you don’t understand them.
You claim to be so familiar but you didn’t even know what his job was.
No..I can't, and neither can you. You claimed he wasn't in charge of FP... but apparently he was..Can you ever just admit you were incorrect and move on? You insist on dragging every thread through the mud with your excuses and speculation.
No, I’m simply posting the facts about the engine in question instead pretending it was intended for something other than what it’s exclusively used for, HD truck/bus/van applications.
You said you’re doing the swap, we’ll hold you to it. Be sure to post pics to document the progress.
So say someone does buy a crate 7.3. How do you prime to oil for the first fire up? I saw on one video that on for another ford engine, maybe coyote, that they removed the oil pressure sensor, made up a pressure tank with the correct fitting, and primed the oil system that way. I assume you would do something similar?
I think I heard in that video that ford’s direction was to pulll the spark plugs and crank it for 10 seconds on some interval for a bit and that was considered safe.
Thoughts?
Cool article for you guys.
As a side note, I talked with Brian several times over the years. First time was in Baja actually.. Brian was still very involved in the development of this engine before he retired.
Meaning the sequence of crank for 10 seconds, wait an amount of time, crank for 10 seconds, etc?It's going to be really the only way to prime it without buying some contraption to plug into an oil galley..
Just crank until oil pressure shows up on gauge.. hopefully there is enough assembly lube on key parts, but oil pressure should pop within 10-20 seconds of cranking in my experienceMeaning the sequence of crank for 10 seconds, wait an amount of time, crank for 10 seconds, etc?
