Also, you could check into flow restrictors for the P/S pump. Installed in the high pressure line side of course. I believe they are called needle valves. They are commonly used in log splitters to slow the speed of log table lifts, and 4-way wedge adjustment. They are plumbed in line to those so the main cylinder can operate at full PSI. Hope this helps.

I'm hopefully picking a 466 up this week to put in my 02 f350 mud truck so I will likely have some questions In the future

Wow, this build looks awesome. Excited to see this baby complete. Nice job!

Hi I have been around semis some , on the air compressor there is a governing valve. So to keep it simple, when the system pressure reaches maximum ( usually about 125 psi ) the value switches and closes off the system and opens up the bypass so that the pressure feeds back into the suction creating a static condition ( the compressor is still turning/pistons still going up&down ) Hopefully this explanation helps. Thanks for sharing another great video.

Air compressor output pressure regulated...minimum turn on/maximum turn off...by a compressor mounted governor (Bendix D2 adjustable and preset at 125# output). Pop-off valve (ST4 non-adjustable 150#) is safety valve on air tank in case governor fails. Stainless braid covered teflon tubing off of compressor to dissipate heat, eliminate vibration, and then Synflex air brake tubing to tank. DOT push-in fittings are easy and reusable. Manual cable-operated water drain valve on tank. "Hot" compressed air make water in tank (same as shop compressor). Optional filter and regulator at tank output for dry air to tires, air tools, etc.

Looking forward to watching this build process.

Thanks for the update. I've been looking forward to these videos. I just got hold of a 1993 DT466 with a p pump. Excited to know what you do about your power steering.

I love it! Just sitting here contemplating a dt466 swap in a 02 dodge. My engine is from a juice break truck so no compressor. Which brings me to my thoughts on "big rig" air compressors for on board air systems. They are designed to be used consistently. They kick off via the governor when the signal line from the air dryer is charged indicating governored air pressure is met. I don't believe that one of these would be too happy consistently running but doing nothing as it would in an on board air type use. Some food for thought. Keep up the good work!

Glad to see this thing finally back! I can't wait to see the finished product

Nice build! There has been a couple of OBS Fords with a DT swapped in. Great engines. I have an electronic version which is a little less reliable but still purrs like a tiger. I may be purchasing a P-pumped version in the near future with an Eaton 7spd. Little easier of a swap in an older F650 though. Keep up the great work!

That is a big project! I don’t think most of the viewers realize how big the DT466 is compared to other diesels. Maybe you should show the viewers the difference in sizes. Other engines that were used in a 6.0 swap: 5.9 Cummins, Cat 3126, and DT360.

As an owner of 5 dt466 internationals I'm excited to see this update. The air compressor will turn itself off I'm pretty confident. It has a governor, not a switch.

If you flip the exhaust manifold over it will give a couple extra inches of clearance for your turbo

Hey bud cool project. Lemme know if you want my email I’m a heavy equipment mechanic and do a lot of trucks too. On top of that air compressor you will notice an aluminum cylinder with a black plastic cap on it. That’s the governor. It regulates the pressure the compressor cuts in and out at. It will have a port for a signal line going to your tank. It has another port for signal to air dryer purge which you may or may not decide to use. I have a ton of Bendix books on all of that stuff in PDF format so just let me know and I can shoot them over to you!

Please please keep us up to date. Maybe someday I will be able to buy a kit?

if your going to use the factory wiring and sensors why not use a factory 6.0 vgt turbo would sound good and give better boost throughout the rpm range. stay healthy and thanks for sharing

Been waiting on this for a minute!!! I want to swap one if these into an ex sooooo bad!!!

Definitely want a cut off switch or regulator on that air compressor I had a tank blow up on me when I was messing with a mack

I would hate to have to adjust the overhead, lift the cab just to pull the valve cover.... UGH.

6 in a row (almost) ready to tow

Can you PLEASE tell me the "specs" on that turbo ?. My '89 S1800 lost a turbo and there is NO numbers on it, International is NO HELP, Garrett Turbo is NO HELP, Im hoping for a cheap upgrade on a turbo, But just NEED this truck back on the road YESTERDAY !!. 😂. Any info on the turbo would help so much. Thanks.

Does this truck need air bags for the front suspension to support the weight of the DT466 motor.

That’s a heavy engine for a 1ton pickup

Hopefully you can help me out I have a DT466 rollback smokes upon take off has a slight misfire it stops once I get to 60 mph I replaced turbo EGR cooler wiring harness took to international they did a compression test came back saying injector 5 is burnt beyond repair they tried to sell me another truck

Way better engine than the old one. Cough 6.4.

I need a diesel conversion done to a 1977 lincoln town car the gas pig 460 has got to be replaced

Couldn't you keep the Dt power steering pump and run a bypass diverter valve? I think it'd be cheaper and you can adjust the pressure etc.

that pump can you some how change the gearing to slow it down

Imagine cramming a powerstroke into a u252 explorer or an 2009 or so expedition

What about trying an electric powersteering? I know they have it in cars not sure if the new trucks have it now but if they do wouldnt that work? Isnt it an electric servo motor on the rack and pinion which would delete the hydraulic powersteering?

Where are you located I want a dt460e on my f-250 I don't want extra power I just want that specific engine.. can I use the stock Ford transmission on the dt460

That is a cool setup, how are you planning on making the cluster work?

Can you send a link to the finished truck ??. I cant seem to locate it. I have several DTA466 drive trains that i want to use in something. Your build interests me. Thanks

Thinking about doing this with a 88 f350

My dad and I wanna put a 466 in a pickup we have one in a tractor and the tractor just sits cause the axle snapped off so he wants to put it in a pickup but that's a lot of work he wants to make it like a daily I want to make it a pulling pickup for truck pulls

This is friggin awesome dude. Are you in Mass?

DT466E should be the Power Stroke Engine, for Ford!

are you going to have to remove the cab, just to adjust valves in the future?

What are you doing to the suspension for all of the added weight?

Can I swap a newer engine on my tow truck? My current engine runs fine, but I have to update the engine or the truck due to CA CARB. What engine should I purchase? Thanks in advance.

You may need to run a secondary cooling system for your intercooler, the engine coolant will be around 200 degrees which won't cool your charge air very much, you may have addressed this and if you did, ignore me!

Any chance of making a kit for swapping one??

Any more progress?

Why would ford use them v8 international diesels, this is what they should’ve went with in the first place a inline 6 dt series internationals

What exactly was the point of this swap.

Don't they make a flow regulator with a return line port to use on your stock power steering pump? You might try this: www.lsxmag.com/news/vari-flow-adjustable-flow-valve/
