Gary, good to see you back, hopefully “good things” getting in the way.
As Mike noted, be sure to address the “cause”, not just the “result”, of the blown hose.
SMX Filtration w/squeeze bulb looks great. No red dye in the off road diesel down there?
That water heater looks like it would be fun to replace!
So you are only dropping pitch 1″, correct? If I read and understand your earlier posts you’re currently at ~3,750. A full 2″ reduction is probably what you need but you’ll find out soon enough and can adjust further from there..
When you pull the exhaust be sure to get high quality pics of the turbo outlet.
