Aren't there also multiple flavors of HT3B with different sized wheels?

Looks very sharp - well worth the effort!

I want to add a pulse manifold and Schwitzer 4LHR to my stock engined M813 and I can't seem to find any technical info on the various 4LHR models such as 4LHR-733, -743, -773, etc. For you turbo guys out there which one would have the best wheel sizes to accentuate a 290-325 HP level without...

Will, thanks for chiming in with those corrections and other definitions- much appreciated. Looks like they want about $100 apiece for those Auto-Lash adjusters and at 6 per engine that's a premium upcharge just to run a divided entry turbo. Oh well - this is funner than collecting stamps 😁

I think I found the Jacobs document mentioning the replacement of adjusting screws with Auto-Lash adjusters on page 3 (listed under Small Cam III) of the install manual for type 401 jake heads. Do you think this change mentioned for a Small Cam 3 would work on our NHC-250?

This is sad news. Aside from their technical repair skills, their refurbishment/ restoration talents were top notch! I bought a full VIC-1 system from Gary and it is beautiful and flawless. The paint, the lettering, the details were all perfect.

Where do the shavings go when drilling for oil squirters? Into a main oil gallery? Can you flush the shavings out or is the oil filter the next stop for them?

Not that it adds anything to my entry, but fun fact; on this day 3 years ago I bought my M813A1, had it hauled over the mountains and fulfilled a long-time dream of owning my own 5-ton :) Loading the truck Delivery

Here are some upgrades that I've made to my truck that you can't see from the outside:

I also got switched over to Hagerty from Gulfway and the crossover papers listed my truck as being stored indoors so I called them to update some info and tell them I had no enclosure. They said that was fine it would just raise my rate from $274 to $340 per year for my level of coverage here...

I'll submit my 1981 AM General M813A1 again after garnering quite a few votes in the November running.

Member @quarkz (I believe) has a solid green M813A1 with a yellow nose and it looks good!

Dang! That looks sharp! I like the solid green. That was a lot of work but well worth it🙂

Thanks for making the video! That looks like a man's job - did you do all 7 in one day?

Fun numbers just FYI: Modern fans like a 2008 Freightliner Cascadia with DD15 take 45 horsepower to operate (dyno tested).

They didn't post any other photos. Maybe this is the last shot the camera got... A mid-explosion fireball pic would have been epic!

I didn't find a picture of a tractor moving a Tomahawk, but I did find a perfectly timed still shot of a tractor about to be moved BY a Tomahawk...

I read on another forum where a guy mentioned that Oshkosh made an ICBM hauler that was an M911 chassis but with a different custom-made body on it. The pictures were no longer available, thanks to photobucket, but that could be the rig your buddy remembers.

The Oshkosh M911 has a pretty long nose and triple axles, but no idea if they used it as a missile transport.
