Happy Thanksgiving,
The marathon session of working on the truck is done we finished up on Tuesday. The '02 engine is in, with a new melling LPOP, UVCH's, GP's and most every o-ring including injectors. Rebuilt & balanced the shaft of the van turbo with new billet wheel for the ported shroud (minus the ported shroud). The bellowed up pipes didn't show up on time, so I went old school with a exhaust donuts from mid '70's 350 cubic inch Chevy. Installed 6.0 inter cooler, power steering pump, and starter too.
Here are some pics:
Old engine ready to come out.
Old engine out.
Old engine on stand with the longer arms I had made to fit the lower holes.
'02 engine going in.
I haven't pulled heads on the old engine yet, so it is still unknown as to what the culprit is.
Edit: '02 has PMR's, and we found a short in an injector wire going into the 42 Pin connector that had been wearing on the valve cover, I had an intermittent injector shut down issue a while back and that must of been the cause.

You said you wanted more pictures here's a pic of it all buttoned up.

Here's one top side and running

I haven't been able to drive it much yet, because I am replacing the rear end. But it runs really well.

Jason glad to see you got it back together and running.
Are you going to rebuild your old E99 engine?
And hopefully that LED light won't cause problems with this engine. I can't wait to see what you find when you pull the heads on the E99 engine. Fingers crossed!

Good luck with your rear diff hopefully that is working out for ya.

That is the plan to rebuild, might be a project that takes awhile though. I got rid of that LED and went with a different one. I had really good compression #'s on the '02 while it was on the hoist and only at room temp. I'll post them later there in my truck, which is at the shop.

The rear end is going well, here is what we found.

That's part of the ring gear.

OUCH !! So are you just going to change the ring & pinion or swap out the housing and all with a used one. And how in the world did that happen?? Where you doing a burn out or playing in the mud? I only ask because it is pretty hard to ripe a tooth off clean like that.
I say that because I too have done that once to a 9" diff doing a demo derby. That same derby car I swapped out the center section and snapped an axle 2 demo's later.

Swapping whole housing, just needed u-bolts, some fine threaded lug nuts and the left side brake caliper (mine where universal one facing front one rear). The housing was shot from all the play, plus I don't have to replace bearings and races, they should have some life left in them at 140,000 miles. I can only attribute it to lots of towing at 12K. Maybe I need stabilizer bars, I have gone though one set of springs at about 200,000 miles.
