So far with the new trunnions truck has been quiet. Hopefully there isn’t any damage on the cam.

Thats interesting, no real rhyme or reason why these things do what they do. Ive heard quite a few people have good results with the 5w-40. Gets around the engine sooner on start up

My next purchase will be the banks intake manifold. Super happy with even just the CAI

Correct. Don’t want to mislead anyone. They are far less frequent. I was starting to worry there for a bit

So XDP trunnions have been in for a couple days, finally got to get the oil good and hot today. Im cautiously optimistic, Tic is good as gone at all RPM’s. We will see in the coming weeks. If my assumption is correct a lot of the valvetrain issues may be an oil delivery problem. Think about...

My truck had frequent regens anywhere from 150 miles to 200. I had a drop in K&N. After reading some of the posts, went ahead and got a banks CAI. Havent had a regen yet. These trucks are very very picky

Not sure if India is who they usually use. I thought most of the parts came from Mexico.

I’ll get a better look tomorrow. They are definitely sub par. Easy install. Plenty of oil going down the pushrods to those thirsty lifters.

Well I know the original version doesn’t work so I’m assuming this new groove pattern is better. It’s got a baby one that is wider. Hard to see photographer sucked. The new one already had some slight scuffs after 2 weeks of driving. Lack of oiling for sure

So, I had an idea. I think this may fix the problem, only time will tell. Obvious difference in oil flow over rockers when idling with valve cover off. These are the upgraded XDP Trunnions. You can see the bigger hole and oil flow path.

Haha, The 4th Gens would be familiar platform for me. No special tools needed to do valvetrain work. Those fords have awesome cab space though, and they are fast out the box. To expensive for me though. I just like diesels and have a passion for them, haha. I could probably drive a f150 and...

Yeah the pushrods were only wore on the rocker arm side, they were perfect on the lifter side.
