By constantly operating at low water temps, the piston rings probably don't expand enough to conform to the shape of the cylinder wall increasing wear and blow-by. I have made a plywood radiator blocker like Bjorn's and keep it behind the grill all year. When temperatures go below 30°F the...

At the end the article, it was stated that a new paint system is being tested to replace CARC but didn't say what is was. What is it and is it in service yet? Also, who are the big distributors of CARC?

That would be cool for a 2 1/2ton trailer too (or any trailer for that matter) Most light duty dump kits like Hefty Products or Pierce Wrecker are available for $600-$1,500 depending on rated capacity, but are limited to a 45° dump angle. Northern sells the same kits. I can tell you from...

Yamma Hamma :? Where again did you say you could send your oil to be tested?

Thats nice to know. Thank you.

If I may be so bold as to ask how much (approx.) Gulfway charges per year. I pay $600 a year through GEICO and its registered Commercial. Do they require that it locked in a barn? or other ridiculous requirements? Man I can only imagine how great that must have felt when everything worked as...

[thumbzup] I concur with your stance on Big Box Stores Etc. Did you adjust the valve lash with the truck running or just get hot and shut it down? When I first adjusted valves on my Swiss Timepiece (slant six) in my Valiant(my first mech. cam), I ran it till really hot, did half, then ran...

Hi everyone: Due to having tranny trouble and the need to redo the seals, boots, & bearings on the front axle and the need for a better spare tire, I have made a last minute decision to go to Aberdeen next Friday to pick up some parts. Do you think I will be able to get at least some of the...

PPPHHHHHHSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!! and BRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWW!!!!!! going up hill. :D

I like your license plate surround. I hope you don't get a ticket. Is that a Sigtronic headset your wearing or just blue earmuffs? Intake is cool as well as the black wheels.

Nice trip Quick question: What RPM were you running at 55MPH? Have you noticed a difference in mileage with the taller tire? Or is it the same due to increased weight and resistance? On my partially worn 9x20s I do 50MPH at 2,400 RPM (not exact because I'm looking at the gauge from an...

Hey man don't give up!! Its looking good. The clothesline paint method is the best. The summer after high school I was helping my bro finish a restoration on his 69 C-30 before we went on a road trip vacation to VT, NH. We worked day & night to finish stuff up. We actually worked through...

Hmmm....Synchros, forks, shift rods? Thanks for reminding me of the simple things before I drop the whole thing. Memphis wants $1,500 for a rebuilt unit. What is right Mil engine paint for drivetrain parts that will withstand high temps and chemicles? Who makes it? I don't know what to...

Was driving the Deuce the other night in the rain and was downshifting as usual when coming to a stop at a red light. When I attempted to put it in Neutral as I came to a stop it would not budge. It was a long light on a busy road with no shoulder so I shut it down so as not to burn up the...

Cool Bel-Air. Did you have to adjust the chains a bunch of times and play with the angle of the engine/trans or did it come out easily?

Very crafty. I too have my face in the steering wheel when reaching down to pull up into hi-range. Nice job.

If the shaft is 90° "out of phase" the shaft is no longer symmetrical and dynamic balance is lost. Does this sound right?

Answered my own question. Red standard, others are custom available.

Up to 500°F, various dia. and looks pretty accurate too. Does it come in black?
