The originals went in a box of parts with two 331 engines that I sold awhile ago.

The 5-ton pump uses an external reservoir. I suggest a reservoir off of a larger truck (Mack, et al) which has the built in filter. Ross recommends a 50 micron filter for the HF54.

I used a common large bolt pattern Holley economaster carb on my Reo with very good results. I used a Holley to Rochester adapter. Years ago, I used a Holley 4412 500 CFM carb on a 302 GMC in my pickup; again using the adapter. I used a die grinder to port match the maniflod to the carb...

You are right, my oversight on the speed.

An engine which has 134 horsepower produces a hair shy of 100kW of output at the crankshaft (134 * 746). Assuming 80% conversion efficiency (probably a few points low) in the generator head, this would result in an 80kW output. While it won't produce full 100kW output, it was just a good way...

I'v searched the forums but havent' found the answers... I'd like to put an LDS wastegate turbo on my M35. Can the starter be reclocked to clear the wastegate? Will the M35 intake hose fit the LDS turbo inlet? Will the M35 exhaust fit the LDS turbo? It appears that the LDS turbo...

I have a new front pipe. $50 plus shipping.

Heath, IMHO, your are focusing on the wrong things. The LDS's cooling channel is designed to cool the top ring land and does it at a 100F maximum! The LD, LDT, and LDS all have the piston cooling valve and oil galley in the block (at least all of the ones that I have seen). It seems like a...

Just want to note that this is for the LDS465-2, not the more common LDS465-1 used in the 5-ton 6x6.

Use EPDM for DOT 3. Readily available on ebay. Normal fuel hose will disintegrate with DOT3....

Based on Continental's own literature, the oil channel in the piston doesn't do very much (100F reduction in upper ring land temperature). My BELIEF is that you can realize most if not all of the LDS horsepower by simply turning up the LDT's fuel.

What brand of AGM do you sell?

Can you point me to the portion of the TM which indicates a different rocker arm ratio? My understaning was the the LDS465-2 rocker arm difference was the additiion of a squirter for the pushrod ball/socket.

I remember arguing your point with my college physics proffessor nearly 20 years ago. It is counterintuitive but correct that area is not part of the formula for calculating friction which is: fk = ukN where fk is the kinetic friction force uk is is the coefficient of kinetic friction...

Brake stopping power (ie. friction) is determined by the force and the coefficient of friction between the lining material and the drum or rotor. Area is not part of the friction equation. Obviously, the larger the diameter, the higher the surface speed and the higher the braking force.

You should be able to do hydraulic for just a bit over $1k.

IMHO, the 1600s have a cadillac ride.

I have 395 MVT on Marsh Racing wheels and they are about as big as I would go with using stock springs/no lift. I did try 1600s but there was only about 2" clearance between the tire and fender and the tires frequently caught the fender.

I found a significant improvement in traction by dropping the tire pressure to ~15psi or so.
