    302 Oil pan Gasket

    I have had both the civilian and military 302s and, while I can't verify 100%, I do believe that there is no difference in the pan rail. I have had good luck making my own gaskets from silicone sheet. The cork always seems to leak.

    LDT 465 Multifuel. Andy3's Broken Camshaft

    But Continental/ White/ Hercules, etc did produce these engines for farm tractors and prime movers for generators (diesel and spark ignition). Somebody certainly knows the engineering history and I would bet that the military knew of a change order.

    OA331

    I have pulled several OA331 and several multi. In fact, I pulled an OA331 using a cheap parts store engine crane. Not going to do that with a multi. I stand by my prior comment.

    You clearly haven't a clue. You were given the answer straight from TM9-1819A.

    Can't see how it would matter.

    Feeler: Turbo kit for the Diesels

    How do you mount an automotive exhaust to that turbo? Looks like it was designed to mate with a tractor's stack.

    Feeler: Turbo kit for the Diesels

    The LDS wastegate turbo clears both the stock and gear reduction starters. I can say with reasonable certainty that the 3LM466 is physically smaller than the LDS wastegate turbo and should fit fine. It may even be a smaller flange size.

    Intake flame heater delete

    I have found that engaging the flame heater briefly before you crank the engine results in a noticeable response from the engine in wanting to start. I realize that the "TM is gospel" folks are going to have a fit but I see no reason why this is bad practice. I otherwise would probably never...

    M35A1 engine

    Don't all of the 4" turbos have the larger diameter inlet (same as the outlet of the deuce air cleaner)? I checked my emails with Memphis, it was for an M35A1.

    Chrome'd out deuce

    What is the big deal? Folks modify Deuces the same way they do cars, motorcycles, houses. It is one of the great freedoms of being American.

    M35A1 engine

    It is a U-pipe but larger than the typical deuce. I believe it was for the M35A1/ LDS427.

    M35A1 engine

    I got the larger intake duct for the 4le354 wastegate turbo from Memphis Equipment.

    Italian or US made?

    Blow-by assessment - opinions needed!

    Wouldn't that stop once the compressor stops?

    Fuel Injector Removal

    A popular auction site has them.

    Blow-by assessment - opinions needed!

    A fair bit more than my brother's truck; a lot more than my truck. Don't really know what is normal. Typically, you would check crankcase pressure with a manometer; if excessive, followup with a compression test.

    Cold start capability vs overfueling with FDC bypassed

    I have been operating with the FDC bypassed for a couple of years and decided to turn the fuel down so that I didn't have to keep an eye on the pyro all the time. I turned it down 12 flat as listed here to put the fuel back at a stock setting. Would not start. Turned the fuel up until I the...

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    I suspect that the most important mod and most relevant for a low rpm, low horsepower engine are the 12 pt rod bolts.
