    Using 4l80 in Humvee with LS?

    They make adapters to be able to use the legacy transmissions on the LS motors, the crank to rear engine flange depth is different, and as TOBASH said you should use a gasser torque converter. The info is not hard to find...

    Best Way to Power 12V Ham Radio Box

    Unless you are running continuous digital modes or my wife is talking on the radio the actual average load is rather small so I would run them off of the 12V tap

    Just purchased a M1123 on Gov Planet - Reno NV area

    Be VERY careful with that missing CDR valve, you now have a direct opening into the intake manifold, one little nut,washer or any other trash gets in there and the motor is TOAST! The very first thing you need to do is get one on that motor!!

    Adding Secondary Override Switch for Reverse Lights

    The fuse is to protect the wiring, switch etc. I would think 10A would be fine.

    Adding Secondary Override Switch for Reverse Lights

    Yes you should use the same 24V feed for both functions, switched (run) or unswitched, of course it should be fused

    Adding Secondary Override Switch for Reverse Lights

    That is awesome, what did that panel cost? My main problem with custom stuff like that is I am always wandering around with ideas so it would be difficult to settle on a design.

    Adding Secondary Override Switch for Reverse Lights

    Actually this can be simply done with a SPDT switch, just cut the wire on the light side of the shifter switch and bring both sides to the switch. Or break the reverse light wire anywhere along its path, same thing. This will prevent back feeding the run circuit.

    Adding Secondary Override Switch for Reverse Lights

    The only caveat is that if you put the trans in reverse while you have the lights in by-pass and the run switch off it will try to back feed the run circuit. This would seem to be a very rare occurrence as you are not likely to put the trans in reverse without the truck running. There are two...

    2002 M1123 4L80E Strange Shifting

    I asked you in post #32 to start another thread, that is why I said again. But to answer your question that is an IP for a 6.5L with a 3 speed transmission, you could remove the plastic cam and use it on a 6.5L with a 4 speed but unless you got a super good deal on it you should return it and...

    Smoke on start up (not glow plugs)

    In fact it is easy to see even without a schematic that the glow plug power goes in and out of the circuit board using the green and white wires secured to the circuit board with studs as pointed out by the arrows. They evidently needed some amount of voltage drop in that circuit, that is why...
