    6.2 hatched

    That sucks The gp can sit in the precup for a long time, just bad luck that it fell down the hole into the piston. Going rate for 6.2's on craigslist is 300 and up. Plenty of people are ready to scrap 6.2's and 80's trucks so they are easy to come by Get a takeout engine swap it in and your...

    Ether vs. Liquid Wrench?

    Glow plugs are a good option to any type of spray Sorry had too, the 6.2 can start fine even under -20 Fahrenheit. Sounds like something is wrong gps, or cranking speed.

    Sad day for my M1008

    Challenge accepted, A couple more and it will be do-able by my brother and I. And craigslist holds tons of good 6.2's for 150 and up. I would put an engine as the cheapest drivetrain part on my truck lol

    Transmission Choice M1009

    I would put in a sm465, manual trans L123 They are cheap, you can rebuild them yourself and it will offer better mpg's. It has similar gear ratios as the th400 (no overdrive) Can buy a parts truck and swap all the parts to be easiest, then sell/scrap the leftovers Also could go with 700r4 or...

    1985 M1008 Hybrid

    Wow junkyards around here are littered with dump trucks, all have d60 and 14b rears. I bet i could get matching sets for 300-500 from the local places. Nice truck and im curious how it will be overall with the engine/gearing combo.

    Injector types?

    Marine injectors only work to their potential with a marine pump putting out more fuel. If your staying NA get the long body If you want to turbo at any point in the future, get the short body Quality parts are the most important thing with injectors. NO chinese injectors!!!
