    Convert air compressor from M1031 to 2-phase / 220V

    No, it is not the "90 degree 2-phase" system referenced in your article and I realize that it is "incorrect" to refer to split phase as 2 phase. This is unfortunate because split phase has more in common with 120/208 wye than the "2-phase" oddity.

    Convert air compressor from M1031 to 2-phase / 220V

    Dave, This may be an argument of semantics (and I have not read the whole thread to know the background behind your answer) but split phase is two phase power. It is two 120V L-N separated by 180 degrees versus three 120V L-N separated by 120 degrees in three phase 120/208V Y. Static phase...

    Deuce hard to start when hot

    I made several mods to my truck to improve hard starting: holley encomaster carb which is less susceptible to heat soak, electronic ignition with civvy distriibutor for hotter spark, and 12V armature to spin it over faster.

    Has anyone tried to fit this pump in?

    Not the same thing. You either need to use the original M35 wire with some means to hold the connector in the Parker pump OR adapt the bayonet connector that comes with the Parker pump to your M35 wire.

    Has anyone tried to fit this pump in?

    Since the wires are soldered to the sockets, the bayonet connector which comes with the pump can be swapped on to the original wire from your old pump.

    Pulling tractor with a deuce engine

    It turns out that there are two different TD military blocks. The LD and early LDT blocks that I have are squared off around #6 while the later LDT are rounded on the passenger side with two ribs extending vertically on each side of the frost plug at the rear of the block. The tractor pulling...

    Pulling tractor with a deuce engine

    Excerpted from Oliver, Cletrac, Co-op & Cockshutt Tractors Discussion Board - Re: 2-155 cummins conversion I have NO idea if it is accurate. There are some differences in the 478 used in the Army trucks and the ones used in the tractors. The blocks are the same casting but the tractor engines...

    Pulling tractor with a deuce engine

    OK, given that they are not through bolts with nuts, can the OEM bolts be replaced without resizing the rod?

    Pulling tractor with a deuce engine

    I'll admit to not having the pan off of one but the TM clearly shows that the rod bolts are not through-bolts.

    Pulling tractor with a deuce engine

    A few have checked on ARP rod bolts which ended up being too expensive. I wonder if there is room for a short stud/nut? Might be cheaper.

    where to buy sprag

    If I recall correctly, you can use another good used rear to replace your front. I should have one if you need. I also have a REB kit which can be used to replace your sprag section (also for sale). PM me if you are interested. However, if you have easy access to an air shift, that is a...

    lds wastegate turbo on an M35

    I believe that the compressor outlet was 3". It requires a different intake elbow. I won't be able to get back to the truck until after Christmas; will post something then.

    Pulling tractor with a deuce engine

    Well, one guy broke enough blocks in one season to justify a custom billet block. Question is at what power does it break and is it worth it to tempt fate when you can do a 5.9 for less $.
