    WTK: What RPM is my Truck Tranny Supposed to Shift Gears??? M923A2

    The Allison spec is for the transmission to shift at 300 rpm below governed rpm for all gears but the highest. This shift is supposed to be 500 below governed rpm. You can cause the transmission to short shift by not applying full throttle. You can also hold the gear by manually shifting...

    One thing that has not been brought up is that the 110 machines need a 20 amp, or larger, circuit to operate at there potential. Most 110 circuits are 15 amp.

    Lincoln or Miller is like the Ford verses Chevy argument. I grew up with Lincoln machines and now own two of them. Both are 220 volt and set up for flux core. My older machine was Lincoln's first small 220 machine, it is over 20 years old. It is called a SP130T, they later called it a SP170T...

    Deuce reg in Cali?

    He needs to go through a DMV service. They do give you a hard time going from commercial to historic. They think you are just trying to avoid the fees. Where is your friend located?

    They are load if you run them as they are but you have to remember that they were designed to be located inside of an insulated enclosure. I added a sound insulated enclosure to mine and it is a lot quitter but it is not a honda.

    Hercules RoadForce 118 Tires

    I did not see where they specified the tire position. My tire guy had a difficult time locating cross tread tire that was rated for all position. He found a firestone tire that worked better that the tires the factory put on the truck on the run to tower park last month.

    Air system question

    Civilian trucks vent the air from multiple locations under the vehicle. This vehicle has the vent line plumbed to the air intake. This causes a different sound.

    I am looking to get a M923A2 in CA and need to know how to register one.

    CA is just following the federal rules on drivers licenses. That is except for requiring a class b for a 3 axle over 6,000 lbs. Historic vehicles and motor homes are carb exempt. All being said CA is a lot easier to deal with than a lot of states. You just have to follow the law.
