    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    Figure 41 on page 34 of the LDS-465-1 Troubleshooting Manual states 18-20" Hg manifold pressure at full load and 2400 rpm with diesel. 20" Hg equates to 9.823 psi. Where do you get your numbers from?

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    I couldn't agree more. If you have 10psi of boost, you have "LDS power". That simple.

    Thanks for the accolades but it is YOU who stepped up and actually did it.

    Newbie looking for some head gasket advise/wisdom

    I have two of the Snap-on wrenches and they don't work in all of the locations. I ended up making my own.

    Pulsetech solar panel install location on Deuce

    There are many off the shelf charge controllers and PV modules. I have a Morningstar Sunsaver 10 that I plan on using for my truck with a larger PV module. Yes, you can add modules in series or parallel to obtain the voltage or current needed (just like batteries). Just note that if you...

    Pulsetech solar panel install location on Deuce

    That's not a bad price. The typical $300 is a ripoff.

    Pulsetech solar panel install location on Deuce

    For what these systems cost, you could buy a much larger PV system or pay a lot less for an equivalent system.

    Front axle brake shoes wear out faster than rear axle brake shoes?

    I guess if you are worried about the front shoes wearing out faster, you could rotate them like tires. LOL.

    Alternator Pulley Source?

    Pulley. Was $20 or $25. There were a few different offsets. I converted from a 60A to 100A military alternator. I had to file the key to the narrower dimension of the pulley, though.

    In-tank fuel pump

    A buddy of mine who builds generators using the multi found out the same thing; the inline pumps lack the volume. He uses the stock M35a2 tank and pump. Cheap, easy, and it works. As far as the Parker pumps... at $50 each, I can afford to purchase a quantity of the pumps and test each before...

    Front axle brake shoes wear out faster than rear axle brake shoes?

    I agree about the importance of properly adjusted brakes. However, you are otherwise confused. The front brakes have the same force between the drum and show and travel the same distance. Same wear.

    Front axle brake shoes wear out faster than rear axle brake shoes?

    Agreed but a sample size of six is statistically insignificant.

    In-tank fuel pump

    You could have purchased a good pump off of a popular auction site for $50. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/deuce-modification-hot-rodding/79191-has-anyone-tried-fit-pump.html

    Multifuel Automatic Transmisson?

    Near as I can tell, my gasser hood is the same as the later multi version. The side covers on a gasser are tapered whereas the multi are straight to allow for the taller radiator/ grill.

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    Wow, such defeatism.... So, join the forum and ask questions. Make it clear that you aren't competing and you just want you can do to increase the horsepower in your truck.

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    You should really join one of the tractor pulling forums to see what it takes to build high horsepower; and then back it off a bit. Easier than finding things out on your own ($$$$$) through trial and error.

    LDS VS LDT and the real differences

    There are plenty of places in the states who regrind cams and lifters. A Google search will turn up many options.
