    How to tellif you have a C turbo

    Yes the heat is the cause for the rust. Exhaust temps in the range of 800-1100 deg. hot! kind of like a car that burns on the expressway they rust in a very short time. I am not a metalurgist(?) but it's the heat.

    Cutting with torch, need advice,1st time.

    Good point on the galvanized metal.What if you were to cut the corregated material,and then go back and make a parallel cut an inch away,pull out the corregated and then you would have a clear shot at the steel deck? you will use more gas/oxy but sawzall blades aint cheap either!

    Bridge Truck with 15.5 x 20 singles

    It was these or 16.00x20 xl, 14.00 xl seem to be scarce up here. I am right at 8'-6 ish. If I find I don't like these I might go with the 16.00s. I will see how the power is.The 16.00s will probably require me to remove the spacers.
