    Exhaust tubing technical data

    Furnace is 85,000 BTUs/hr and the gauge is 16. I just need to know the cycle life of the material when the temp ranges from say 700~800 to ambient. I haven't had time to contact the manufacturer. I'm sure they have some tests I can look at. OH and it's a heat exchanger that's specifically...

    Exhaust tubing technical data

    I'm working R@D on a furnace and the exhaust gasses are really hot. 700°F+ so I'm concerned about a requirement that no component emit in the visible spectrum. I could go with Stainless but that stuff is expensive and I'm thinking if I just use diesel exhaust tubing I'll be well within the...

    Looking at an old Kenworth

    Thanks. About 20 calls later and still no luck. I have a TDI VW and a Ford IDI but I'm parting out the Ford, couldn't get reliable parts. Seems like I changed everything twice and I just wan't going for round 3. Never did get it to quit leaking from the fuel return system and I've been...

    Looking at an old Kenworth

    Oh hey and CIb I'm not going to be hauling with this thing, or at least not in the working world. Its a toy. I'll be hauling my camper around with it. Think of a full length flatbed with maybe 10,000 or less on it. I can't imagine I need to stroke my way through the whole pattern. I was a...

    Looking at an old Kenworth

    Well I'm trying to buy but I keep getting "the person you are trying to reach is not available at this time". Driving nuts cause I've decided to give it a shot. The 350 is supposed to be rebuilt and the body is perfect, wheels might be the old funky split rims but they're also perfect...

    Looking at an old Kenworth

    Cheap, under 10K and its a 5/4 so 20 speeds. I've never driven one of those before. But I'd like to assume I could just use 2 and 4 on the rear and play it like a 10speed And no idea about how much room there is but I suspect I could get a fuller 10 in there

    Yeah I have a friend, neighbor at the warehouse I rent, owns a moving and storage business who said the same thing about the trans. I'm sure I can deal with it but I'd rather just have a 10 speed is the main input I'm getting so far. I'll post picts if i get it.

    OK let me talk to my warehouse manager and make sure someone will be there who's better with a forklift than I am to get it out with. Which means we're aiming for tuesday since they are bound to want more than one days notice. Did you want the heat exchanger as well ?

    Hmmmm. Well I have a bunch into the electric motor but if you have one already you could use then I could sell you the tank, the filters, hoses, pump for $300. There's a heat exchanger I had custom made for it if you want it but I'd have to have say $50 for it. I have pictures around here...
