    Fuel consumption of a M934 Am General and a Winnebago (haha)

    that's more what I was thinking, all those trucks were intended for a 300 mile operating radius, so look at the size difference between a hmmwv, duce, 5 ton, lmtv, and hemtt fuel tanks and you get the idea. forget what the 5 ton tank size is but you can do the math and figure it out real quick...

    M1010 possible blown engine?

    well I would just find a good 6.5 and drop it into your bay with the th 400 that would be easy and cost effective. that said an early model 65 with a turbo and db-2 pump would be a score you would have to engineer an intake and exhaust. also a cummins and a 47rh auto would be nice. but much more...

    Why not go to electric fans ?

    if you look at cars equipped with electric fans the fans only come on at low speed to keep the engine cool. on your diesel that fan has to run even at high way speed to move enough air to keep the engine cool a electric fan that large would be crazy huge. the clutches are pretty easy to rebuild...

    rattle noise. worse when warm

    one thing to think about if the timing is retarded you will get a whitish blue smoke other than something wearing in the ip the only other way this could happen is a timing chain. just something to think about also one or 2 bad glow plugs will cause it to start a little hard and smoke a light...
