    Fuel tank woes

    i modded a truck to run the "Mulochico fuel tank mod" he draws off the front, returns to the rear and interconnects from the rear to the front. i done it in a way where I can undo what has been done. if your FSV is jammed the same direction, it's something to consider. oh yea, I fixed a broken...

    84 F-350 dually 4wd flatbed, with 7.3L, not a 6.9

    if I was a betting man, I'd wager the rear end is from a commercial dually and was grafted onto a pickup frame. why? there is almost no room between the spring packs and the tire. below pic is of a pickup dually rear. look at the distance between the U bolt to the backing plate and how the...

    R&D idi issues?

    i don't hang out on FTE. not to mention, of all people, you should be urging others to chill too rather than throwing him under the bus.

    R&D idi issues?

    please remember R&D like many other cottage businesses, are a one-man part-time show. Justin has a real full-time job and a family to raise. I don't talk to him much, but I know when he does, he walks alot of newbs through the questions and issues they have. Many of you are lucky he has the...

    Injectables?

    part of the problem was the thought process goatboy held. "if a little is good, a helluva lot more will be better" :O choosing a metering nozzle for the fluid the size of a firehose nozzle, can be a problem. rule of thumb....don't get carried away.

    IDI 0-60 Times

    *this* damn thing is the quintessential word of a "sleeper". i've went through 3 shortblock assys, but holy cow.....this SOB is fast. my local exhaust shop is a duramax junkie hangout and I dropped in to get the piping on the truck welded together. When I went to pick up the truck, the duramax...

    Big Ugly goes to rehab

    Rule #1- let his speak his mind and then you can be on your way :D i've had many who were going to get cut loose with a simple sermon. unfortunately, due to their own actions, it didn't end that way :O

    F-Superduty F450

    believe it or not, it's constitutionally protected. no state can erect barriers to other states to impede commerce. that is why Kali must allow smog non-compliant big rigs into the state, but there is a cap at 72 hours for a non-compliant rig to be in the state. Also, DOT is generally afraid of...

    Going to test drive a 12v cummins

    i own all three makes. Ford, GM and Dodge. my underpowered Sulaco is my favorite truck to drive when water, dirt and oil is tracked into the truck often. It certainly doesn't have any balls to mention about, fuel economy is ok unloaded, and awful when loaded heavy. It gets minimal maintenance...

    F-Superduty F450

    if you're passing through, your base state plate will determine what limits you have. But you can't be over your chassis sticker/cert plate. Arrowcraft conversions were popular with the snowbirds for some time until WADOT put their foot down and said "no....you're not going anywhere in that...
