    max HP out of a 465 multi fuel?

    The cummins whether 5.9 or 6.7 two valve or 4 valve is just such a robust setup and a marvel of engineering. My son has a 03 3500 5.9 dually with the NV5600 tranny and that truck is an absolute monster. They can put out insane power and live over the long haul miles Mark

    max HP out of a 465 multi fuel?

    Those are great EGT numbers. Has anyone upgraded the turbo to increase the pressure a bit but will also drop the EGTs due to the increased velosity carrying away more heat. Mark

    Two Batteries Instead of Four - Issues?

    Boy you need to be careful with the ether. I've seen some real carnage when too much is used. As far as heat I always liked the waffle iron magnetic heaters. Super simple and you can't beat the ease of install. I used them all the time in the material handling equipment world. Mark

    HMMWV vibration and noise when braking.

    CV boots okay? Is there oil in the portals? The hub nut for the axle tight? Are the bolts on the inner mounting flange of the axle tight? I would start with the above. Mark

    Turn Signal Issue

    You could get the LED bulbs with the anti hyperflash which has a resistor build in unlike those awful looking inline resistors. Mine had the same odd one flasher light not working. I remember a funny story that some northern city wanted to save energy cost. They had a brilliant idea to...

    Turn Signal Issue

    Put the incandescents back in the front Lights. Had this same issue. The flasher unit had problems with so little resistance. Mark https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/h1-tail-light-buckets-on-hmmwv.217583/#post-2546086

    Are these led units or 1156 led bulbs in place of the incandescents?

    M998 Bumper paint suggestions

    Rustoleum matte black (satin black). Very durable and easy touch ups. If you have the Air Lift bumper will need a good etching primer and metal prep to get the paint to stick properly. Recurring problem for me but as I said easy touch ups. Mark

    NY Humvee Insurance in NY

    I found Hagerty had the best deal and have had them for a year. Stay away with anything to do with Geico. Last year they attempted to double my premium for nothing on my part. My cars are now with Progressive. Mark
