    double OD and other nonsense......

    a fairly large measurable percentage of the smog on the coast is not even from our country, we need carb to be active in china/russia more so then cali. and just like reagan had a hand in its creation, and for good reason i do not argue there, it can now be modified and made reasonable...

    1977 f-350 Camper special dually diesel swap?

    do you already have the 6.9 setup? i know i would run the cummins if the price was right when starting from 0, this based simply on better economy potential. though i seriously prefer v8 noise. the six just is not nice to my ear. in the case of a fullsize old school tow rig that is...

    double OD and other nonsense......

    we will. running the 410 gears is a bummer for me unladen. i really would prefer a 32 - 33 in tire and second od behind my 4l80 for street running at legalish freeway speeds at 18-2100 rpm and hopefully decent economy. cause the 410 gear my 60's came with is good middle ground for...

    89 F350 Engine Swap Choices

    :eek: wow.... i must be a cheap bastard. i slid my running donor powertrain into my ranger for less then 400 bux in swap costs initially. i have not run into a cummins 12 v/trans/t-case with the condition/price point i want to pay when i had cash on hand to do so, or my e350 would...

    Any thoughts on the 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee?

    the overall cost of the benz and actual usability depending on size of kids. ML320 CDI not for me..not a jeep either..rather have a dodge minivan.

    The New NMB2 build is alive

    i have extra fuel. with the small block i would stop every 170 or so miles...with the 6.5 i stopped about every 500 miles....easy to do with the interstates. but what is funny is i had t case temp, tranny in and out, and rear diff temp when i had the gasser and old axles installed along...

    The New NMB2 build is alive

    my truck is built to run without a front dog house...the radiator has its own support setup. they broke in quite a few sbf for race cars in this chassis, just takes a few hours to swap engines. now with the diesel its even easier. this is pretty funny, i have driven across the...

    whats the purpose of duallys?

    some main points to the purpose of duals is load capacity and redundancy with a tire failure.

    The New NMB2 build is alive

    i understand where you are coming from. theres several builders/vehicles that i try to lure to the boards on the internet to no avail. the turbo is nothing special at all from what i got out of this, just cost effective for intended goals. the pump mods and cam combination etc put this...
