The multi fuel engines are fine, with a little help they have plenty of power and will last a long time as long as you take care of them and don't red line them out. If it ain't broke don't fix it. More power will create more problems. If you have a blowen motor than it might be feasible to change out to a diffrent one. But when you can get a good used take out muti fuel for $1000 why go to the trouble.

looks like a wicked nice rig and I bet it will ride a lot better than the original spring suspension. I was curious about the steering because here in Maine we have to keep the mechanical connection to be "street legal." I'd be interested to know how it handles...in particular, how much body roll there is when driving around a corner with the air ride.

Probably apples and oranges comparing a bobbed deuce with a Peterbilt, but we have a Peterbilt truck with air ride on the rear and that truck leans much more in the corners and on crowned roads than the Mack trucks we own with springs all around. That being said, the Peterbilt is the one I'd rather drive because it does ride so much better...
