    Engine Heaters

    elec block heaters work well. my power stroke gets plugged in every night during cold weather. the hot box is a portable option. and much quicker. i use mine on larger engines also with timely results. its just nice to have options living where we do.

    THE MONSTERS ARE HERE!!! Huge turbos for the kits... w/ pics

    most of the ventilated mf engines that i have saw were turboed. and the turbo's were bad. i was thinking that the turbo craped out and dumped the oil up the stack and starved the engine of lubrication. # 6 must be at the end of the line for oiling. just my thoughts.

    Super singles for M139? How?

    im not positive on this but it sure seems that the stock 5 ton rims are to narrow for the 16's. as far as your lug/stud question i wonder if you could just use the same type and size lug nut as the front uses. like the 2 1/2 ton guys do when they single out there wheels.
