You guys should do more of these videos with the step by step. They are awesome!!!!!
That Zay! We were nervous with how long this video was. If it goes well we will do more!
@@pddofficial Please do more I watched the whole thing! I got a 12v here at home and I love learning about it every day!
@@pddofficial The length of the video is fine as it takes that long to properly cover the material. What I would suggest is posting longer video's such as this with the acceleration feature that allows the viewer to speed up the video in increments of 1.25x, 1.5x, 1.75x, & 2.0x. The audio is still understandable at these speeds but the viewer can get through the entire presentation faster. Excellent video by the way! 👍
@@wrfarms9741 You can already speed it up on UA-cam, its where the settings are for resolution and etc. I watched the whole thing at 2x except the startup and I was entertained every second.
@@pddofficial please do
More!
Just let the camera roll we love this kind of stuff
1.45 hour video, guess il not sleep tonight 😅
No sleep for the wicked.... LOL
@@pddofficial Get all the sleep I need when Im dead, thanks for the dance Doc.... who said it?
Hmm. I need to bring lonnon in on this one!
You two are fantastic teachers. Ive learned so much from this channel I feel like I owe tuition or something. Thanks guys.
Facts same here
Wow, thanks! We are just trying to share our passion for diesel performance!
Buy some parts from them. I will buy at least 1 or 2 if I do the p pump swap. Well I can't promise, but I'd like to support them some.
Probably one of the best videos I've seen for quite some time! Well done, y'all! Thanks for sharing!
Wow, thanks!
Thanks for this y'all, this is a plethora of info, most act as if it's too secret, or won't take the time to detail the "Why's".
Great stuff 👍
A full engine rebuild video ... would be awesome 👊👍
P
This video is great!! We need more videos like this. I have a 2017 Cummins and the PDD videos just make me want to buy a 12 valve asap.
Great video! I like the in depth install tutorials. I have spent lots of money on your parts and not many parts come with Instructions, so this is nice to see.
This was the most educational video I have watched in a long time. I like how you explained everything. Makes it more friendly for people new to diesels!
Excellent video, I don't own a Cummins yet but now I know what to do when I eventually get one. Really enjoy your channel and the way you run your company.
This video style was right on the money! 👌🏻
Loved this video!...my ‘97 12valve has 315k I’m trying to do my own work on it and this video helps to familiarize me “a ton”!
Thank you for giving us the history of Honda, they were my key to freedom via 1965 305 Super Hawk👍
I watched the whole thing uninterrupted and was glued to it. Fantastic, Mark is a master and a teacher. SINSAI MASTER MASTER MARK. 😎👍. You are very fortunate to have such a fantastic friend. Who is willing to take the time and effort to do this. I look forward to the rest of the build.
thank you for sharing this vid! I loved it! great attention to details, great info and great knowledge! wish it was even longer keep it up
Very helpful. Thank you for uploading this.
Great great video. I know this took you guys time. I have owned my 94 for just about 20 years. Still stock, just at 325,000 miles. Did head gasket in the driveway after number 6 started seeping some coolant.
Wife dispises my old dodge, but I love her with all my heart, (the truck)...and my wife.
I know what they are and one day would love to drive her to Utah and have some upgrades done. Just purchased the tranny line kit and will be installing that soon. Funny how your tutorial video stated the only thing that caused him to be stranded was a pinhole leak.....same here.
Love what you guys do. Keep it up.
Chris
Thanks for the kind words and it's true, pinhole tranny line leaks have left many trucks stranded!
This was an amazing video!!! Very informative and well put together. I am in the process of waking up my 12 valve! Can't wait for part 2, with dyno runs and turbo swaps 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Words cannot explain how excited I am for this series! I've been wondering when you guys would drop another wrenching video amd this one knocked it out of the park! Ordered 025's today to go with my 5x12's and future super 9. I'm stoked to see this play out!
More to come! And we plan to test a Super 9, if they dyno half as well as they feel on the street, it's going to produce solid numbers on the dyno!
hey man how did it turn out? me and the old man are starting our 12v hauler build. were gonna be hauling 3 cars from time to time but want loads of power for the hauler bed to cruise at 85-90 with the speed of traffic with 1 car haha
I reference this video all the time. No where I have seen or read the companion cylinder trick to setting valve lash. This is very useful with an aftermarket camshaft. Such a great video. Thank you Will.
Glad it helped
I have an old 12V in my burb and this video is going to be invaluable about next week when it gets proper power. Thank you.
Glad it helped, and Cummins swapped Burb sounds like a killer project!
Love your work guys, never seen a claw hammer used under the hood on a diesel engine, a new claw at that👍
Great video, step by step and gives me the absolute confidence to do some of these mods by myself! It was a long video but it was paced well enough to keep it interesting.
Wow so glad I found this channel! Keep making these videos guys, best videos on UA-cam!
This was fascinating. I was riveted. ⭐️
Wow, this was great!! Just like watching a movie. Being a 12v owner myself, I thoroughly enjoyed this. Thank you for taking the time to make this in such detail. Very informative.
Glad you enjoyed it! The 12v Cummins owners seem to like this type of information.
If one day I can afford it, I'll take my 1999 3500 24 valves Dodge Ram to you guys and ask you to do to my truck what you feel is needed to get better and, very importantly, pay you handsomely! Let me tell you we need people like you in our areas. I live in Miami-Dade, I think it's not impossible to find great mechanics down here that can bring my truck to your levels because to Miami have come millions of people but I can't still find you guys here! So, I seriously hope one day I crack the code and knock your door with my beloved truck for upgrades! Thank you for being there for us, the dreamers and the lovers of old best truck in my opinion and old vehicles of a golden era in American history and human invention! Thank you!
seriously this video is perfect!! well done! love all the mechanic working scene.
Thanks!
This video helped so much. thanks Will and Todd you guys are awesome!
Our pleasure!
That sounds so professional "fuel package" I love the presentation
By far, y'all have the best diesel videos out there.
That was an amazing transformation! Thanks for the video!!
Glad you liked it!!
Greatest diesel shop on this planet!
Thanks for the support! You have one of the greatest UA-cam usernames we've seen in ages! Good choice!
@@pddofficial i am addicted to them just like you guys. I support you guys because you support the DIY guys like me. I just installed your new billet tappet cover on my 98 12 valve and it is working flawlessly
Thanks for this video guys, this is very similar to a build I have going on almost the exact parts I picked up from you guys. Haven’t got the engine in the truck yet though. Excited to see it.
We just put it on the dyno... Quick question, did you also upgrade your trans?
@@pddofficial I'm guessing thats a hint to how the stock trans held up on the dyno? Probably could have guessed... LOL
@@pddofficial nope but it’s a Cummins swap into Ford with the zf6 behind it, not sure how it will hold up but I’ll figure it out lol
Will it was good to meet you at the Jamboree ! Your truck is coming along nicely , I am stoked to get my S9 and some tuning done on my 98.5 and get some 600-700 hp numbers soon !
I watched the whole video and it was awesome! Well done!
Thanks!
never clicked so fast just for the fact i have a 405k cummins and wanna build it
Warning.... this video is LONG!!!! But still tons of great upgrades and content!
I've got 558k. Cracked exhaust manifold and a stuck waste gate. Seems like it's time for something like this.
@@MadebyKourmoulis that's honestly not bad at all those are pretty simple fixes....as long as you don't have any leaks or blow by why send it away?
@@SWEATY-Braaapper666 I meant as I fixed the other issues I should take that as an opportunity to do these upgrades. I just bought the truck this week. Got it from the second owner. The title says 22k is when he bought it. So it's basically a 1 owner truck. My plan is to take it to 1mil
@@MadebyKourmoulis wow that's awesome lol...I'm into cars I just bought a focus ST with 100k on it I don't have a car payment anymore I put about 2k worth of mods and parts and oil changes on this I hope it gets me another 100k and few years no problems it's a fun little car
Great video, need more in depth videos of the giveaway trucks and other builds..
The best valve lash video for sure..
I dont even own a diesel but I couldn't turn away. I need a 12V in my life. I think I'm gonna upgrade one on a stand and then look for a donor truck.
Hey folks? I am from Brazil and here these KKK27 or K27 turbos are very distant, but we are migrating to a better turbocharger in all aspects which is superior to the k27 which is from the Auto Avionics A366, A372 brand, if I'm not mistaken it is used here on John tractors Deere, it has the same quality as the Garrett, sorry for any mistake, I'm using google translator, sensational video, I liked it.
Those turbos are very similar the Box Borg Warner S366. They make great power but at terribly lazy and slow spooling on a 5.9L12v Cummins. They came from a 7 liter John Deere diesel engine which makes them decent performance turbo but TERRIBLE towing/street use turbo for a 12v Cummins.
I love the extendo pitsburge rachet, one of my favorite tools in my box.
We get crap for using it, but it is really handy!
It took me 6 steps to watch the entire video....😅
But it was well worth it !!! awesome guys 👍🏻
Update called the shop about compound turbos set up and a few other complications to expect your staff were very helpful and took the time to answer all my questions even asking questions about my auto pilot lockout and discovered it was not functioning correctly as it was installed prior to purchase. 97 ram 2500 4x4 47re (built to700hp) 210k miles. HD T front end upgrade from the y system and way easier to align also installed the steering box brace with extra bearing.
Thank you for the comments
Great video, can’t wait for the dyno results. Im looking to buy a 12v. Hard to get one in Norway, maybe i will import one. Definitely gonna buy performance parts from you guys when i do 😊
when visiting Belgium I saw more second gens than I expected, you might be able to find a good one there saving on import costs. But if you import from north america do NOT get one thats been driven in a lot of winters where it snows
@@fluffygamer5335 hehe i know everything about winter driven cars 😅
@Ecanse make sure it has no blowby
@@steve5912 hehe, bought about 6 months ago, no blowby 😊 12v with PDD 650hp fuel kit and borg verner 369 sxe turbo 😁 The turbo might be to big for my application, long time for boost.
Good job 👍🏼 I’m been talking to my dad and we are going to p-pump the 2nd gen 24v Cummins and i got the kdp from amazon and I started to modify the p-pump the only thing that I did is I modified the fuel plate every thing else on the pump I left alone I haven’t modify the afc foot yet. And for right now I’m leaving the stock delivery valves in and the p-pump that I’m putting in my dads truck is a 175 pump.
And good info on the modifications on the p-pump and good info I’ll have to remember that.
great vid..I run your SXE362, injectors, DVs, AFC live/max travel, 4k gov springs & pump time kit..next to buy; valve springs and install your head bolts..love my 12 valves!
Sounds great! I'll bet with 20+ timing, you're truck will easily surpass 500 HP at the rear tire!
One of your best videos
I'll take one of them 12 valve top covers, as a garage ornament. I live close by 😂😂😂
Darn fine mechanics... Pleasure to watch you guys
Thank you
I am addicted to all your videos, this was the best 1:45:34 of my day, I wish it was my truck that you were working on
We were worried doing such a long video! Glad you liked it!
@@pddofficial very good video can’t wait for the following videos
Great video
MOAR. Mine is a 24v, but I don’t care. This is fantastic! I’ve only made it through half an hour so far, but I will be studiously watching any and all future videos of this sort. Excellent idea, I love it and I thank you guys for sharing the knowledge with newb wannabe wrenchers like me.
So glad to hear this! Was nervous doing such a long vid.
I just bought my first diesel.Its a 2006 ram 2500 These videos are great and teaching this old gasser guy a thing or two about diesels. I have had it 2 weeks and purchased a 4"magnaglow turbo back exhaust,also a new s&b cold air intake and a edge evolution cts3 programmer.Before I go crazy with the old girl I'm going to upgrade the torque converter and do some tweaks to the valve body.
Haha, I have about the same exact mods on my 06.
5" turbo back silver line exhaust, edge comp, some plastic CAI tube, can't remember the brand and I wrapped it in dei gold heat shield mat stuff, put a BHAF filter on there and that's all.
Threw the mods on in the first 2 weeks, and blew the trans up 2 months into owning it. So be careful... And that was years ago with only 55k miles.
Had the trans swapped out for a full billet Goerend trans, and have been hot rodding it since. 9 years strong on her now. No issues, other than all the consumable axle parts. Currently has 144k miles on it.
Will run 0-60 in 5.8 seconds in 2wd, still scared to try a 4wd launch. 13.7 1/4 mile 2wd.
Has a level kit and 33's
@@2S1L3NT I know I will be putting a Trans in it so I drive it fairly easy but I'm a old man.I do like to get- locked in 4th and roll a little coal.Just getting into it half throttle amazes me the torque these engines have for stock.
Need more videos like this!
So glad you guys made this video because i was just asking about the k25 vs the hx super 9 that you guys build.. Very cool stuff cant wait to see more!
More to come!
I really enjoy you gays. Videos are great.thanks
I have a 1992 12v Cummins all stock runs sweet
Good grief you guys covered everything. GOOD ON YA!!!!
I’ve been running a hx35 with a 67mm exhaust turbine with a he351 60mm compressor ... been a great upgrade over the stock unit
We will be testing that very combo on this truck shortly!
It’s a killer combo for a stock bolt in charger , I ran it hard and egt were great on my 24 valve with 150 injectors and a hot rod pump .... going to a 67/67 he351 over a s488 on my new build 🤟
I learned a new word from Will tonight... squoshed = The result of being squished out
Lol! Oh he's got lots of great words..
Hi guys I'm still waiting for 4th jen billed 😎
As always God bless you and keep safe in these difficult times 🙋♂️🇬🇧
I own a Duramax, these are so much easier to work on. Thank you for the amazing content.
Yup, I love the duramax's, but this makes me want to go buy a 12v
@@GreatLakesLogger 12V best engine Ever built
@@FYMM69 one of best....t444e is not bad i too
I use to own a 03 duramax now i own a 95 2nd gen ,had a 17 mega cab it go totaled , never dis the duramax whish id did a sas only thing i hated but 5years ago i switched to get a new manual id never go back cummins forever
Such a cliff hanger at the end!!!!! Show me the numbers!!! LOL!
We just put it on the dyno! Video coming soon
@@pddofficial Can't wait! That's my truck - bone stock but with 178k miles. These 2nd gen videos are encouraging to see how you can really wake them up!
Ive watched this like ten times in the background at work 😂 love it.
So you're the guy running up all the views.... thank you!
I need to get the right injector tool. Always forget and end up cleaning off a lug nut, threading it onto the injector and using my vise grip slide hammer
Great videos!!👍👍
Thank you! 👍
Good video!
Dont even have a 12v, but I loved watchin this!
I thought the time stamp was wrong when I clicked the video... I'm so happy right now
I Can’t wait until I get a 12 valve
Gloves are they way to go!
I always leave my fuel lines together, it's a little more of a pain to get the wrench in there but you save time and aggravation of putting the lines back together.
I LOVE the vidjas you guys put out! I wish you guys were Durtymax fans though but I still watch the content and love it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks!
That was way cool i thought it would be so much more involved ,even with all the extra upgrades u threw into it given ur access of shop n tools.what kinda money would it take for the same upgrade n power advance by a shop verses done by oneself n a few drunken buddies?snooky pa.
Y’all did him dirty putting him up on the box like that and showing it on camera 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I’m just here to say I skipped the whole video to watch the burnout at the end lololol
I used the same PDD kit on my 12 valve swap in my 98 K3500 along with a K27. Big difference over stock power. Actually popped my HG recently but I think it was my fault as I didn't do a hot retorque on the studs. Very curious to see what papasaurus gets on the dyno. Can't wait to see. BTW, dad is still loving the mods on his 2005!
Awesome! Thanks for the support!
Great video! Now I know what I'm going to do in the spring. But when you're removing and tightening the nut for the pump to advance the timing is the plastic lock pin strong enough to hold it. I would think it would snap off.
I want to do the 550hp kit for mine, I already have a borgwarnner S362SXE and 4kGSK so I think it will compliment the turbo perfectly.
can’t wait to see the dyno👍
426 HP!!!
When doing the valve lash does that 7 method work for all Cummins motors or only 12v? Awesome video I agree to have these kinds of videos who cares how long they are. It’s teaching us rookies how to do things. Adrian
If someone did slide that plate they did an excellent job installing a new tamper proof bolt.
Please do a 7.3 powerstroke!! Especially a NBS!
This is good being I just got myself 300k bone stock Cali ‘94 12v
this is all the videos i've ever watched on 12 valves in 1 video
It was long for sure!
Todd is so tall he doesn’t need a topside creeper
So excited to watch this. Getting my fix of being a wrench monkeys but without doing it myself.
Awesome video! Would be cool to see one for a third gen 750-800hp build!
I’d love a build sheet for Todd’s truck. That’s exactly the setup I’d like to have for my ‘07 5.9.
After buying my first cummins a few weeks ago this is exactly the video I needed!!! I havent seen a video this in depth in a while between all the car videos I watch on youtube, excellent work guys! I watched every minute of it, very eye opening and gives me confidence to do this work myself!
Do you use the np241dld or the np241dhd transfer case? I’m wondering how much power the dld can handle
Love this stuff. Love learning from you guys
Long video but I like it !!!
Awesome video guys, really love that you got back into your old style of step by step videos but I would have thought for that kind of power you would need to run a good lift pump such as your predator lift pump and also a few other mods such as a Mack rack plug and a tork tech adjustable over flow valve on the pump?
Anyway needless to say I think the tranny will be the next thing on the must do list now haha.
I have a single K27 turbo 12V, custom intake and that's ALL. Not even gov. springs yet. My truck flies haha and of course no smoke. These trucks are amazing. I had my auto trans done by an awesome, experienced builder just to make sure it could take the beating of ripping around and towing anything. Yesterday I just put an AFC Live on my friends 12V (that someone put injectors on before). His truck is even faster than mine. When the roads are a little damp the rear wheels break loose in 5th gear now... before only 4th. I can't believe these engines.
Will the heavier valve springs cause premature valve seat wear?
I've never heard popcorn pop so long.....y'all sure that isn't burnt??
I liked Will’s crack about manual transmission guys being smarter!!! Haha. #stickshiftforlife. Great content, watched every minute!!!
Awesome! Thank you!
I have a 2500 4x4 1997 cummins with just a little over 200k. I want to run right
around 400hp a atf fuel with compound sequential twin turbos with 4k Governor springs and a maybe upgrade injectors. I have rebuilt the transmission with billit shafts, Kevlar 727 bands, 3500 sungear all steel. And GM shift update and autopilot shifter.
I really enjoyed the video . I wish I had this video back when I did some of these things to my truck . Damn I was hoping that every things would work out back then. Timing was the big thing that made a huge difference in mileage . Back then you burn a hole in the piston. I told them it was my truck and my business . Set the timing to 17.5 or 18 . I found for me when I went to the 215 injectors on my 160 hp engine that the thinner washers seem to idle better . That just me . The 3 k governor kit what a difference lol . I be interested in a better turbo if you make one for towing and may be 275 or 300 hp . I have a 10 plate all the way forward . Is there a benefit from the fluid damper on a stock 12 that want ever see over 3200 or less . Also I might be interested in better head bolts or studs if it would help . I use my egt gauge and watch my water temp especially towing in Colorado . Thanks for you videos and advice
The fluid dampr does make the engine run smoother everywhere. They are fairly expensive so lots of guys wait but after adding one, you'll wonder why you didn't get one sooner! As far as better EGT while towing in the mountains, we are currently testing several turbos for that specific need. The Borg K27 will drop you EGT about 100 degrees under the exact same fueling/load conditions. We are playing with some Holset HX35/40 variants and will have those videos out in the next month, so far we've found even more EGT control than the K27 in some of the factory Holset turbine wheel designs combined with a little bigger compressor on the HX35.
