Well, that sucks. I moved out of the state this year, but would be willing to donate what resources I can to help elected officials come up with something better if someone gets the ball rolling.

Funny post :LOL:. Still yours for the cost of shipping if interested, scrapping the cab they're in.

I have most, if not all those pieces. You're welcome to them. Coming up the coast anytime soon?

That's the idea and why I posted up, trying to save on the tuition pile. New bolts in hand. Thanks for the good wishes and to you as well. Makes sense, thank you.

You should if you want to! Nice combination KamikazeKunze, truck trailer looks real good!

Thanks for your response. In those cases, have used the thicker head gasket or not bothered with it? That's funny. I was thinking about that possibility yesterday after posting, and I'm glad he didn't because this is not a want to buy add. I will say that I did purchase the NOS head from...

Took a pair of heads to a machine shop. One was cracked and the other one needs to be resurfaced according to the machinist. Have ordered a NOS to replace the cracked one and I'm undecided as to replace or have the other one resurfaced. I would like to know if fellow members have had good luck...

All that and no picture? Gotta give us something...:p Following progress on big Bertha and echoing AnotherAhab's good wishes on the job search.

Jumping on to 2insanes thread as I feel I'm in the same boat. If there are signs, what would be your recommended plan of action and how far would you take it? ie, pressure test, replace head gasket, have heads magnafluxed, have block inspected...?

Both the parts manuals have the hoses and metal lines, so -20P and -34P. Here is a screen shot from TM-34P of the rear fuel lines and associated parts (M1009). How's the exhaust coming? Exhaust thread. Sounds like you're doing a some work to your truck, consider a build thread. It would...

I like fixed, good job.

#12 I believe, got it from here. Good luck.

Hey SP, your talking about painting your new exhaust right? If not I totally agree with cucvrus edit. Not worth the time on an old system I started with a kit. Stainless, probably an overkill but sure would be nice .

My 2cents, 1) Yes 2) If it's worth it to you, give it a shot. 3) I've seen up to 1100 f on my EGT, I've read above that any higher than 1200 f and you start melting stuff, YMMV. 4) That's what I used, I suggest you read the instructions there is a recommended heating/cooling curing procedure...

If you need to replace the spades in the bulk head connector, I found Packard 56 connectors to be a direct replacement. Bought them at Napa.

Box is looking great, solid progress. [thumbzup] About the electrical schematic, I'm not saying it's right, but I'd put a fuse between to the 24v feed and the relay. And have you considered a battery isolator to not deplete chassis batts by "house" use and ensure preference when charging? or...

Welcome aboard from Maryland, USA. Good luck with your future purchase!

nopics Put it all together and send it! I'd keep it 24v though.

Beautiful scenery, beautiful truck... :drool:
