(edit I changed the title from "not a HMMWV but pretty cool) Well I won a bid tonight on a Scorpion FAV. The story as my limited research has discovered so far: (so don't pound me on minor errors) 120 of them were designed and built in the early 80s by Chenowth Racing for the military as a...

I am sorry, I thought this came up not too long ago but I cannot find it. Does anyone know what the expected output in amps is on the 28 volt side of the 200A dual voltage alternator at idle?

What is this "socket" used for?

I was asked to make this its own thread. I converted the stock waste gate controller to make it adjustable, was really easy, just grind off the crimp in the middle of the "can" until it gives up the "cover", then carefully grind the end of the rod (spring end) until the spring cap is free...

Most guys that have been twisting wrenches for 50 years would not admit to this stupid but simple mistake. But if it saves anyone else from the grief I am about to go through so be it.. A few months ago I replaced a fuel pump with an external leak, I had been waiting for the excuse to install...

Does anyone know what size the screws are that hold the surge tank neck to the tank is? I am having a hard time determining what it is and the TM does not give that information. OR does anyone have a busted tank that can send me a screw?

I never really paid any attention before, wish I had... But with the GEP turbo conversion of course I am checking everything and noticed the PS system gets pretty dang hot even after only 15-20 minuets of idling, I read 170 degrees at the input to the cooler, is this normal???

I am curious to see the actual belt replacement procedure for my ECV engine but cannot find it in any of the TMs. I did find this in one of the TMs but the artist has a whole pocket full of wishful thinking showing the tensioner completely free and clear of the fan, blades are not more than...

Looks like my GEP "kit" came with the wrong pulley, does anyone have the correct pulley or a source for one, I would prefer the clutch type. Looks like 12460259 would be the "regular" number, seems to be several on fleabay..

Just want to confirm before driving 100 miles round trip to the specialty tool store that the allen head screws for the oil/trans/steering cooler is 3/16.

I hope this is not against any rules, but I did inspect these helmet tops at Lytle and all of the B pillar areas of both of these tops are cut at the top of the doors, just in case anyone was bidding on them, I did not see any of the cut off pieces. BTW I already have a helmet top so I am not...

I am starting to do a GEP turbo conversion on my 1992 M998 I call "Detroit" so maybe some would be interested in the "ride" Back story: When I was getting ready to install the 6L80 in Detroit I knew I was going to have issues with my doghouse, I was using a cable driven tach out of a another...

TM 9-2815-237-34 give just about every darn torque rating for just about every damn bolt except the Turbocharger to block and wastegate housing to turbo housing

There was a thread earlier eluding to the fact that there were turbo doghouse conversion trim pieces "out there" to help convert a NA floor pan to what is needed to convert to a turbo doghouse where the floor must be trimmed out, does anyone have any information or sources for these?

There was a guy selling non running HMMWVs and parts, he had a museum of some sorts IIRC, he was north of Austin TX, maybe in the Belton TX area. I have not seen any of his posts lately, I think he was on FB, anybody have contact info?

OK so I know if someone wants in they are going to get in, my only hope is to delay them until I can get them in my sights. 90% of us have the same key code if using the aftermarket door handle/locks and they are not very sophisticated as anyone with just about any tool/utility box key can...

Any comments on the Federal dual locking door handles?

What was the "correct" windshield used with the supplemental armor

I have a thread going on the HMMWV mods page but thought I should check in here. I have a M998/Duramax conversion that I just mounted a stripped S788 shelter to and plan to convert into a camper. I have some of what I want worked out but I need some sort of windows in the sides and rear. I do...

I know this is not the time everyone is normally thinking about AC. My plans have changed since I have decided to possibly cut a pass though between the S-788 shelter and the cab of the DuraVee, so the Red Dot unit I have will not work. I have seen at least partial factory dash units showing...
