    Engine Swap

    454, 440 or 429/460 might be a better choice with a truck trans, 4-5 speed manual shift. Theres a member in here with a Dodge 440 somewhere'or other, search 440 Mopar, it should come up. Summit has a 502 'Towing Motor' with big torque numbers, probably from the standpoint of eas of parts...

    Tach works Hour gauge doesn't

    Try unhooking it in the back of the guage, it'll unscrew the retaining ring then you can pull the inner cable to see if its sheared somewhere between here and there. Mine did work, then when addressing connections to some of the guages and re-assembeling it, nothing. I massed with it again...

    Having lives in Quail Valley in the early days (80's) and then Sage, then Anza I'm framiliar with the area. One thing for sure, it's fast paced out there now, 75-80 on the freeway and near that on city streets. Do you have a place to park such a large unit where you live? off the street? A way...

    is it legal to ride in the back of a deuce and a half

    In North Carolina it appears to be legal to ride in the back of a pick-up truck, leading me to believe it ok to do so. In California where I lived, I believe if the Law saw it they would have SWAT out and you'd be on the 6:00 news "cult leader attempts mass suicide with members" We all know the...

    New guy from chicago area

    Yep members, I think He's in the first stages, if My diagnosus is sound. Just pretend that you don't notice anything wrong with Him, so as not to induce paranoia of insuficiant amounts of MV's. We might expect him to live a fairly normal and funtional life, but the prognosis for recovery looks...

    Appel's M818 Conversion

    It looks good, one thing I'd mention that was you cut the bed on a upright, and kept the symetry, so much better than a mid-way cut between the two uprights, which turn out looking 'not-though-out' You guys with nice bobbers..........grrrrrrrr.

    New guy from southern illinois

    GL is an iffy thing, not bad, but iffy. could be that it just needs fuel and primed or it could have catastrphic damage, thats why you need to look at the vehicle before bidding if possable. Most people here will probably tell you that their "non-runner" was some slight non-event thing, while...
