isx cm871 coolant pressurized

Yes I did the @m*m^2 on it

Check the compressor, if it has a wild tune on it, I would say more than likely it is the head gasket or head. Do you have a pyro and boost gauge on her? I would look at returning her to stock and MM her after fixing the head...

[Waterloo]

Does it still have the OEM VV turbo on her, or was that replaced too?

[gonzo1949]

No I did the 485 @m*m^2. Boost and pyro installed. Boost never goes over 38 and pyro sits at 300.goes up too about 500 on a hard pull

[gonzo1949]

Yes oem turbo and new actuator

I would fix the head, remove all of the plating and get her as close to stock as possible.

Sounds like mine, same tune, 485 hp, same readings.

Yea she runs great. No issues til now. Gonna wrench on her this weekend.

just a fair warning for guys running around with the caps loose. obviously you gotta do what you can to get it moving BUT

Running a 0 pressure system on conventional coolant, and LL coolant can cause localized hotspots on the liners and cause severe damage. the truck needs that pressure to maintain a high boiling point and keep the liners from flashing off coolant and causing overheat on the liners. just a heads up.
