My first post here.

I've always wanted a modded 1st generation, but haven't been in the position to have an "extra" truck. As of lately things have changed and I've been looking around for one.
I've found one that seems to be built really well but I wanted to ask for opinions on its reliability. It's a 91 with 160,000 miles , it was built at 150,000 miles.

Here's the parts list.
NV4500 conversion
Dual disc clutch
62/65/14 Phatshaft turbo
.013 edm injectors
Hx 40 down pipe
3 inch stainless intercooler tubes
Ice cold air intake box
Autometer Pyrometer, tach , fuel pressure , boost gauge
2nd generation piston fuel pump with inline regulator
Injection pump has been turned up, fuel pin added,3200 spring, timing bumped.

What do you guys think about the reliability of this setup?

 

Sounds like a decent enough combination of upgrades, 2wd or 4wd truck? But really depends on what you want to use it for?

The dual clutch might be a little overkill for regular street/daily driver. And if it's still sporting the OEM intercooler things might get a little hot on the EGT's from time to time. What gears are in the diffs?

 

I want to get out and drive this truck on the weekend and also have a backup to pull a gooseneck triller with a tractor and mower. The gears are 4:10.
The OEM cooler things? What would the upgrades need to be in there?

 

Still....2wd or 4wd?

As for intercooler upgrade. I like the Power Stroke Intercooler (PS IC) upgrade myself, look through my thread and you'll see what's required to install one. But others have gone with 2nd Gen dodge IC's, or custom ones.

You can use the search function and find loads of info. Also go up to the top of the page and look through "The Sticky" threads....you'll probably find all your answers there, were upgrades and maintenance are related.

4.10's with a 14cm exhaust housing, should be OK. Probably just have to keep your speeds down on the road if pulling any grades.

 

It's a 4 wheel drive. Thanks for the info Thrashincows.

 

Almost sounds like you're buying my truck lol. Solid combo, still pull a trailer using the stock intercooler.
