does your base have an auto hobby shop that you can keep your project at and work on it there?

start with replacing fuel filters imo - then check for the sound of the in tank pump and test pressure from it then move on to the mechanical pump - even if that is the problem you still probably got a decent deal.

interested - the parts i have priced out to do mine will run me about 900 so 600 is an improvement if i like the design.

I've been wanting to do something along these lines for a while and have been gathering data and making plans. my plan is essentially to either use a isuzu/gmc/fuso/mitsubishi cab over cab and extend it into a crew cab. or duplicate a Scania type cabover semi cab...

don't want to go to the electric fans?

maybe I missed it - are you using the auburn digital pyrometer with it's "buzzer" feed to trigger the meth injection? or is it triggered by boost pressure?

what adhesive did you use to attach the PCV?

the 4 corner drains vs a single center drain makes a lot more sense in a platform that is likely to not be perfectly level. Smart move.

that makes more sense you planning to sell both and get something else, or just see which one sells first?

owe 34k on a 31k car. there are a lot of new or almost new reliable cars out there for half that. if you still want a new car then trade that in and take the hit to get something cheaper. to me a new car is usually 5 years old and costs under 10k - most i've ever spent on a car was 11K

I would do this if only to see if the primary filter is causing too much restriction

I think I would make it so that it swings out then rotates to horizontal. then the function would be the old ratcheting cable winch. nice and easy, a couple of clevis pins to hold things in place and done. or use a simple cable/strap winch to swing an arm down after rotating out. both simple...

use the 22.5's and get some nice knobby retreads.

I've seen that on all the cars that don't have pressure sealed gas caps.

if you are just worried about overspray outside of tight masking then you can use an oily product on the sidewalls of the tires to prevent the paint from sticking.

dual and triple electric fans have been done with success. there are a few threads on it - I bought my fans but haven't had a chance to install them with a thermostatic control yet.

its the vinyl equivalent of silicon impregnated cordura (waterproof ballistic nylon)

just to be clear - not all rivets are created equal - blind rivets are the weakest ones, and aluminum blind rivets are the weakest of the blind rivets. solids are significantly stronger. solid aluminum soft rivets are rated for ~5x the load as aluminum blind rivets. were they originally...

blind rivets tensile and shear strength is measured in the hundreds - each of the stock bolts is rated in the 10's of thousands. asuming that those are 3/16" size steel then they are likely 400 shear 600 tensile strength each x28 = 11,200 shear and 16,800 tensile. the bolts even as only a...
