    The first one came from the manufacture of the adapter plate and was a Rock Auto or something. It was the worse the next two have been from Napa, with a third sitting on the bench ready to go in. I have a sneaking suspicion that the factory had a bad run. At least that's what i am hoping...

    Ouch, you are right old thread. 6.0 starter.....i am using a 6.0 excursion starter on my 71 F250, and i will be installing my 4th starter on warranty here soon. OUCH. They have not been starting to spin as they go in and thus do not engage....Just FYI

    I have heard of more upset customers from FordCummins then Destroke, however on my conversion i used neither, instead i used a local guy who does it as a hobby on the side. So i have no experience with either...just from what i have read over the past few years prepping to do mine.

    Nissan SD33 Diesel in a 2WD Jeep Cherokee?

    Pics of IDIs still working?

    Oh lets see...that is a 1950s John Deere MC with a 2 cylinder....very long strokes. If i remember correctly i was hauling it to our mechanic's place in that picture because he was going to rebuild the front with an angle blade. Since then it now has a completely hydrolic angle blade which...

    International sure had their hands in everything!

    I was going to bring up the fact that IH made some M1 Garands however they had production issues. I may have to pull out my books and check on the GM one i don't remember them producing M1 too. My father has a number of IH trucks one of them is a 80 Scout with a I6 3.4 Cummins stuffed into...

    2 cycle in diesel? good or bad?

    2cycl helps a lot in my opinion. Quieted my 01 down enough that you actually notice it. Dont use ATF...i cant remember exactly why but if my memory is correct its because the formula isnt the same as it use to be so it doesn't burn right and will not lubricate like the old atf did...but my...
