Wow that is awesome! I'd like to know what the crab was thinking!rofl I'd love to have a nitro boat! Right I put the ZR.30 on mine, I wrecked it HARD. I've wrecked it before, but nothing like I did this time. I was showing out for a friend of our's over at my brother's house (like an...

Ah yes, those lovely rope seals. SBC's have all spoiled. I am big time Pontiac nut, and I have always cussed those rope seals. On that 520K engine that blew apart, I'd suspect its probably like I have thought a lot of them were - I bet that it had main cracks for a long time and finally just...

No, its got way more power than a 6.2!;) It will do wheelies, backflips, and will pull the tires off the ground when it shifts into 2nd gear! :p It probably won't go where the big 'un will go though. Of course it does go through glow plugs (which cost exactly as much as a 6.2 GP, ironically)...

Yes, I've seen some headscratchers, too. I've heard of low mileage, well cared for engines have the cranks break, head gaskets blow, and heads crack for no apparent reason. However, in the 7 or 8 of them I've owned, I've had great luck and had none of these problems. I've also heard of a lot of...

No, they are stockers with heavy oil and stiffer springs and couple of spacers on the rear. I put a LRP ZR.30 engine on it, and it just insane. I played with all different combinations of springs, and this was best solution I have found to at least somewhat keep it on the ground. The LRP engine...

No, they'll never be as durable as the others, but when you lower the CR, there is less cylinder pressure (even with more fuel) at 15 - 16 psi than there is with a a stock CR 6.2 with 8 - 10 psi boost. Lowering the CR helps with the issues you are speaking of. The late 90's - early '00's Cummins...

...On my M1009 Nitro Truck!;) I ordered 2 bodies, a Chevy truck body and a Blazer body. I started with the truck body, and I'm going to paint the Blazer body next. I kinda went with a topless Blazer look on the truck. I cut out the rear window. I attempted the NATO 3 color pattern, but I didn't...

Yes, I've built a low compression 6.2. You can run a lot more boost without the EGT and water temp getting out of control, which makes a lot more power. The negative with them is that are a little harder to start when cold, which where I live, was never an issue. It was still a great mod, and I...

1990 Kasel M101A2. I am going to pull with it the M1009 and M800 primarily, but may hook it to the M715 as well, until I get a correct-era M101 for it.

Pics on the first white Christmas in our town since 1887!

EUC cleared today!:jumpin: Only 12 days after "Sent to Battle Creek" this time.

Unless another manufacturer has picked it up, the 6.2 gear drives are no longer available. Pete Jackson was making all of them for DSG (Phazer), Kennedy, Heath, SS Diesel, etc, and they stopped producing them. Bill Heath told me he could no longer get them, from any manufacturer.

It looks like its been sitting there a while, and it did say OBO. on the sign. I really don't need it, but if anybody wants the number shoot me a PM.

Oh, OK. I feel doofy now!;):oops: He has $700 OBO on the sign. I just bought a M101A2, so I don't plan on buying it. I have no idea what they worth, but it seemed a little high to me. I will pass on the number if anyone wants it.

Is it not a dump? I stopped by and snapped a few pics< but I was in hurry. I saw what appeared to be a latch to dump it on passenger side front. My little boy was in the waiting in the M1009, so I didn't look under it anything.

I found a little military dump trailer for sale today while I was out scrounging. It appears to be Jeep trailer, but I could find any pics that were just like it. I KNOW something here with know what it is.

I love the concept of it, but the excution could have been better. If its not cold, I always have the rear window down, that wouldn't be possible with a 1 piece design or even an upper lifting gate. My experience with these is that seem to give less trouble when they used more frequently. When I...

Good deal. You may want to stop halfway and make sure you still see antifreeze in your reservoir tank.

I agree, and if the same thing happened to my M1009 today, I'd fix it correctly. However, sometimes fixing it right - right now - isn't an option. Pepper will get you home, and it won't hurt anything. From what I'd read from his posts, CycleJay is struggling right now, so this would be a...

BTW, your oil cooler lines come off the driver's side of the block and cross the radiator and go into the passenger side of the radiator. The tranny lines come off the passenger's side and ends up on the driver's side of radiator.
