So tell us about the setup. is it just manual or do you have it set to come on at certain boost? Power increase? Also I hope you don't split your block!! If you ever start hearing strange nioses with PP on turn it off fast!! thats your pistons and bottom end screaming for help. But looks nice

Also what the oil line mod?

Yeah I saw the line at the HPOP. When he first said something about and oil line mod I though is would be a HPX but it doesn't seem that it is. Hey Bill ask Rick about windshield washers!!

tim the oil line mod goes to the filter bypass and puts more oil into the hpop... and yes there is a propane line running through the cab... nobody smokes when they ride with me anyways... and it comes on manual... whenever i want it... and the power diff... is alot...it will break loose in third when i throw the valve...

First of all know that I am not ******* you with these comments. Just want to lend my thoughts for you to think about and check into. I applaud your enginuity and ambition! Thats where new mods are discovered!

First the oil line mod. Not sure I see any benefit of it. The LPOP supplies plenty of oil to the HPOP even with dual HPOP's. Also I doubt that line is flowing any oil once the engine is running. The pressures on each end are the same. Also if the oil is flowing from the filter bypass (which I am guessing you mean the port on the oil cooler housing above the filter) is unfiltered oil all the time. Which isn't real good even though at cold start up the reservior gets filled first with unfiltered oil anyway.

On the PP glad it works for you. But I am a bit nervous for you. PP injection is precisely metered and only set to come on when conditions are right as well as with proper tuning of the timing for the fuel injection. At this point you have no idea just how much PP is being used and though you have control over when it is turned on you don't have precise control. I would do alot of research on when PP should be used and how much. many have used it moderatly with good results. Some have split blocks in half with it. I would hate to see you post you are part of the later group.

TTT

For some reason i think you have less pressure/vol loss of the LPOP for it to work. Setup this way you do not get much if any flow thru the bypass filter.
How big is the restrictor in the bypass?
