Here is some more information on questions I have asked.
1. Some systems I have found use distilled H2O and vinegar, while others use KOH and distilled H2O. What is best.
2. Some manufatures say that a VMU is not needed for Diesels', is this correct? They sell a unit that monitors voltage and temp only(PWM).
3. I understand that PVC is not good but what makes acrylics better. What about LUXAR?
4. What is the minimum l/p/m flow I need for the duramax? What if I went to a larger unit that supplied more then 3 l/p/m?
5. Where is the best place to install for a duramax?
6. Some manufactures are now pushing dry cell technology. Is this good stuff or another scam.
7. Should I let the vehicle break in first before adding an HHO.
To answer some of your questions,
1) KOH is the best electrolyte to use, the reason for this is that it the best electrical conductor that stays completely dissolved in the water as it is split into its separate molecules of H and O. the less resistance the better as resistance creates heat.
2) a vmu is not needed to improve your fuel millage on SOME vehicles that do not closely monitor the air fuel ratio via the exhaust. the MAIN reason for the VMU is to combine all the necessary sensor offsets to lean out the fuel mixture that you are supplementing with Hydroxy gas. if your vehicle has any sort of electrical fuel injection (you do with a durimax Diesel) then you will at the very least need an EFIE. but the VMU is not only for that. the VMU also controls the current flow Via the built in PWM that gets a signal from the temperature sensor on the cell. without this you will have no idea how hot your cells and could have a runaway effect.
3) Heat resistance, air tight seal (more importantly Hydrogen tight seal as hydrogen is the smallest molecule there is.), chemical compatibility, and of coarse you get the added bonus of getting to see all the tiny little bubbles, everyone loves to see the magic happen
4)couldn't say. every vehicle is different the larger the engine, the more HHO you need, but there is an arbitrary point for every engine where if you add too much HHO you will start to loose the added benefit of millage due to the flame propagation speed being so fast that it actually pushes the crankshaft in the opposite direction. you dont have to worry about this so much in a diesel, but if you are not mechanically inclined enough to fine tune the way that your engine runs you are better off simply adding little bits of Hydroxy gas until you no longer see a gain and stop there.
5)Same as any other vehicle. best place to get the most amount of air flow. in front of the radiator if possible. take a look at this forum where i posted my installation of the Alexis Cell

6)Dry cell's work on the same principle as wet cells but require an additional unit to operate, a circulator. the advantage to dry cells is that you do not loose much efficiency to current leakage due to the fact that there is nowhere for the current to travel but through the water. The Alexis Cell as Very little current leakage and is Quite efficient.
7) how old is the truck? if this is a brand new vehicle i would suggest yes. that is just my personal opinion though. i don't believe that there have actually been any studies of effects of hydroxy supplementation on brand new engines. the reason i say yes, is that if for some reason you have some engine troubles with the vehicle during break-in, it can't be attributed to the Hydroxy gas. give the engine a few thousand K first. or about a thousand miles
