I was in Franconia, yes. But moved to WDBG and then Triangle. Part of getting married and consolidating, etc. At least she let me keep the HMMWV ;) Bulldogger

As I noted in the Northern VA thread, welcome! If you need a core 6.2L or 3L80 core, I have them in Marshall. Make you a great deal as the garage is very tired of storing them by now. Bulldigger

Welcome from Triangle! We lived in WDBG until May last year, and return often for the stores and restaurants. Bulldogger

Congratulations patracy!

Great progress again as usual. Well done, keep it up! BDGR

Looks pretty clean. Best of luck. BDGR

I'm having too-high readings come and go, getting worse just earlier this week. I think if I really had 120psi the engine would sound a LOT different. I'll check that sending unit myself, and the wires too. BDGR

Even at max tuning, a stock OM606 looks to be well below the Horsepower of a 6.5TD, based on WikiPedia details. An OM606 might fit, with enough jamming and adapters, but it might be a very slow ride. BDGR

Better springs on your seat? ;)

Double polished 40 ga marine vinyl is the standard. BDGR
