Hello all, since I first posted this question awhile back, I've bought a few parts for my M1008. I went ahead and bought a 700r4, it's matching NP208. The hard to find TV cable bracket, and a ATS turbo set up. I still need to have the 700 rebuilt and install the turbo, but I'm well on my way...

Hey guys, I'm getting ready to buy some parts for the turbo swap into my M1008. My question is, will the right side exhaust manifold off a 1996 3500 express van work? I keep thinking I read somewhere, that the turbo and the exhaust manifold on the vans are different then the trucks? The picture...

Well, the hard part of the 700r4 swap is over... My Tv cable bracket came in the mail today. I found it on e-bay last week. A guy on there was selling a 6.2 and it's 700r4 separate. I emailed him, and he listed the bracket. $40.00 with free ship. That is a hard part to find, I got lucky.. I'm...

Thanks for the info MB4wd. I've looked at some of the treads on here about the Gear Vendors, and went to their site. It sounds like a great option. In overdrive it changes your axle ratio from 4.56 to 3.56. The problem with it is, the $2995 price.. I'm on a tight budget, I still want to do a 6.5...

Thanks for the info Moose, and thanks for the PM Warwag, I'll contact him. The 700r4 swap is my winter project for "old green" my M1008. I mostly only drive it around the house on the weekends. But I know I would drive it more if I could run it at 70 mph or so, and take it on the highway. I...

Hello all, I've been looking into doing a 700r4 swap in my 84 M1008, it still has the stock TH400, 16" tires and 4.56 gears. I was wondering what kind of MPG's any of you were getting running the 700r4? And how much your top speed increased with the overdrive? Thanks in advance for any help...

Hello all, my name is Mark, I live in S.E. Indiana. I own a 84 M1008 and a 85 M1009. I've owned my rigs for a few years now, and I use the site a lot, it's awesome.. So for I haven't had any major problems, I couldn't take care of, but it's nice to know you can get great help and advice on here...
