    SM465 with a Doug Nash OD

    My neighbor came across an SM465 with a Doug Nash overdrive unit on it. It came out of a 1979 two wheel drive, Chevy 1 ton truck. I've read on here about the SM465 as an alternate transmission to the Turbo 400 and I had a Chevy 4x4 with the SM465 in it and loved it. I would have to attach a...

    Figuring out new sound...here we go...LOL.

    Could it be a flat lifter, drained of oil over night and needs to pump back up? I've heard some engines, not the CUCV diesel that made some serious tapping/clanging noise on a flat lifter until it pumped up with oil.

    Coolant Thermostats....USA made anymore?

    Asmoday, I went to O'reilly Auto this evening to get a thermostat gasket for that new thermostat I received the day before and the guy thought I said thermostat and brought one out for the truck. I corrected him and told him the gasket is what I needed. As he went back to get the gasket, I...

    Coolant Thermostats....USA made anymore?

    Well, I received the Motorad thermostat I ordered, made in Israel. Better than china! I have a Desert Eagle made in Israel and that's a fine firearm.

    oil priming engine?

    I did see on another site about taking the glow plugs out and pump wire off and cranking it that way. Sounds like the path to take. Thank you everyone.

    oil priming engine?

    I've replaced my rear engine seal, but the engine has been drained of oil for about 4 months. I'm ready to start the engine any day now, but I'd like to prime the engine with engine oil before cranking and cranking and cranking. Does anyone know of a recommended way to prime it other than...

    Help with rear main seal

    Doghead, thanks for the link. At first I saw 350 small block and thought "what does this have to do with the diesel engine?" I didn't even know the 350 small block has a split seal also. Camogriz, thanks for your info. I did know about the "OUTSIDE" label on the seal. I was just nervous on...

    Help with rear main seal

    I'm replacing the rear main seal in my M1008. I found information on it and I'm at the point of putting the main bearing cap back on, but I have a question on this procedure. On the Fel-Pro instructions, it states "apply RTV sealer to the outside edges of the cap recess in the block". I don't...

    Looking for part

    I googled the part number and didn't come up with anything for sale, just talk about it. I did get a second response from the Ebay guy that sold some to "ohfisherman". He has one more that he will sell me. Thanks Doghead and everyone else.

    Looking for part

    I'm looking for the rubber elbows that are on the tubing connecting the CDR valve to the intake manifold. Does anyone know what works? I think they are more than 90 degrees and trying any type of hose not formed like that just kinks. Thanks

    What color is this?

    Can someone tell me what's the name and number of this green color? I would like to use the same color to repaint it and thought it could be Woodland Green 34094, then maybe Olive Drab 34088 or 34087. No, maybe Dark Green 34102 or Forest Green 34079. Thank you.

    Fresh Resto 5 M1009

    It's great to see the pics as you go. Thanks for the updates. I thought sanding that CARC paint was hazardous to your health. Cancer causing? I'm just looking for more information on sanding the exterior paint because I want to do the same thing and repaint it.
