Re: Typhoon #1215 Mods

Irvin that Pan was around $700.

Got the engine in with my Dad today. After the original dipstick tube snapping off tryin to reposition it for the header and oil pan, I was able to find one from Ric who was nice enough to let me use his so I can get the engine in today. The pan did need some modifications so the dipstick tube can fit between the Screen. Couple more days and it should start lookin more complete. The Exhaust will be gettin done very soon!

Typhoon 2.0 is almost ready to fire up! Got the Fender exit exhaust done today by Sound Performance. Truely a work of art and one of a kind! Fingers crossed and I'll be able to start it this weekend.

Thanks! I drove around 90% out the time last year with the Electric cutout open, so this should be roughly the same (Loudness). Instead of the Exhaust droning against the ground :tup:

Re: Typhoon #1215 Mods

I think the only thing that would bother me is huffing on the fumes. They are bad enough when it dumps out the back. I know one thing, every truck I have ever driven that wasn't completely stock made me smell like exhaust for the rest of the day :lol:

Re: Typhoon #1215 Mods

I know it's not guna smell like flowers. Like I said, I drove around with the cutout open 90% of the time. My "quiet" exhaust was ATR Muffler dumped at the rear end. So ya, I know that smell after a long trip. Mine isn't 100% stock anymore it is what it is :tup:

Plus, you can roast marshmellows and make s'more's when ever you want. For the smell, you can just roll up the windows and turn on the AC.....oh wait. Can't wait to see all the hard work, and go for a thrill ride.

Re: Typhoon #1215 Mods

What a Great Birthday present today. Got Ty 2.0 started and idling great on the Holley! No leaks, and amazed how well it runs so quick. It already Learned Idle.
I need to button up a couple things before I can drive it but glad its at this point after everything done this Winter.

Re: Typhoon #1215 Mods

Thanks guys! I appreciate all the help from those that I've talked to. It sure was a journey this winter basically rebuilding the whole truck. Honestly didn't think I'd get it done so soon. Fingers crossed everything works in harmony and will have results soon. :tup:

Yes Mike, it only took a matter of minutes for it to learn Idle. Can't wait to see how it does driving around.

Re: Typhoon #1215 Mods

Was able to take the Ty on the road finally last weekend, and a couple times this week down the block and back to make sure all is good to call it road worthy. It's truely amazing how this Holley system is, with regards to learning everything so fast and how well it runs.
I messed with idle half the year last season, compared to Holley doin it flawlessly in a matter of minutes. It Spools up super quick which I give credit to the added Compression.
After this whole build and having it run so well with no leaks is a big relieve. Fingers crossed.

I'm currently in the process of Installing the JSM 4 Link. Yesterday I removed the stock Crossmember thats riveted in for the new Top bar Xmember. Sunday I'll be spending time cleaning the Frame and Diff for Paint.After this I can drive it to break in the Engine.
