    Turbo blankets?

    I run an eBay blanket on my semi to keep heat in the exhaust and from under the hood. I can run the truck loaded all day, get out and put my hand on the blanket, and it's not hot enough to burn. I didn't notice a huge power gain, or mpg, but I did notice it comes on boost much quicker between...

    C6 to zf5 speed swap complete!

    The hole for the clutch master is stamped in the firewall, just drill it out. Also, the C6 pan WILL fit with a ZF5, as we pulled them out of each truck and they were identical, meaning the previous swapper simply cut the holes in what they had laying around. And Nate, lemme know when you're...

    Super Moose, or RD4-180?

    Also, there are V8 p pumps out there that could be adapted to fit. No need for an inline pump/pumps.

    Super Moose, or RD4-180?

    Both pumps flow within 5cc of each other at peak flow. Super Moose requires 65 psi inlet pressure, RD180 requires 20. There's only a few of each in existence. I've dealt with both Mel and Justin in the past, both are knowledgeable, helpful and willing to take the time to work with you. With...

    Cruise control question

    I can't search the threads I had about getting the cruise working in your other truck. You'll have to go back about 6 years to find them. Lots of info on what to test, check and modify.

    New southern truck, how to stop rust

    You're not gonna swap parts over lol. Get me the axle code and I'll tell you the ratio.

    what are these between my duals?

    Looks like an old school centramatic wheel balancer. Try to line the slots up with the valve stems, should work for ya.

    F250 EC vs F350 SC turning radius

    My 85 eclb takes more room to turn than my 00 cclb. Both 4x4s. Either way I need the back 40 to turn em around, it's just the 00 does it without hitting the boundary fence lol.

    zf5 swap from t19

    Yes sir, want the wide ratios of the 460 one, and know that it needs to be drilled.

    zf5 swap from t19

    I'm going to keep an eye on this, since I plan on picking up a 460 ZF5 to put in my truck. One thing I just learned is no matter what, I'll need a flywheel. Oh well, SMF conversion kit isn't too bad. Was hoping I could use my flywheel with the ZF clutch kit.

    To those with 460 ZF5

    S42 or S47? Although it shouldn't matter, I believe they share the same case and dimensions. I do know that everything up to, and including, the 6.0 PSD, share the same bellhousing pattern, so that shouldn't be a problem in bolting it to the engine.

    To those with 460 ZF5

    This will be my 3rd 5 speed IDI, and I will run the solid flywheel again in this truck. Didn't bother me in the other two trucks. To give you an idea how good of a deal this trans is, with resurfacing the flywheel and a 5 speed clutch/pressure plate kit, I'll be under $500 installed in the...

    To those with 460 ZF5

    How do you like it? What gears, tire size etc are you running? I came a across a screaming deal on one and am gonna pick it up if time works in my favor to get thru the area. I know about drilling the bellhousing and such, but I've been contemplating a 5 speed swap into my 85 almost since day...

    Any Y-pipe options?

    Haha, really would like to get the Hypermax Pulse setup to boost power, but that just isn't in the cards for me right now. Business on the trucking side has been so crazy lately, plus my truck went, so I'm paying on a rental to boot. I will say that this truck feels pretty peppy, even with a...

    Any Y-pipe options?

    Hard to get a good picture of the y pipe with the massive and hideous plow mount in the way.
