    If the crane will stay in that position, run a brace from the bed's top rail to the crane mast. It will steady it up quite a bit.

    Don't break the rules and you don't get free vacations! (I'm sure I will get a "polite PM" about this post, lets see how long that takes!)

    Come on, nothing like a crazy road trip to try her out! I had assembled my m35a2c and 2 weeks later, drove it to the Carolinas to pick up some 395s. WOW, what a trip THAT was. I haven't, but I'd like to(get to Raush creek).

    Should be ready just in time for Haspin! Can't wait to see it in person.

    You know there is an "in" and an "out" for the gaskets to be installed? It looks like yours might be backward. I thought the diamond in the corner faces out. P.S. They are not that great of a design either way.

    We don't have too many rust repair threads that are in depth. Please take lots of pics of the steps you take to cut out the rot and put in the patches.

    CLR will work, but its not cheap! Do a search for it here, there is a thread where someone found a generic version for clr. Also, it has been posted that not having it(the rad.) painted will help with heat transfer.

    You just let it sit and idle? I wouldn't think that would get all the air out. Take it for a drive. If it didn't overheat before, it shouldn't now. Next step would be to have the rad. rodded or boiled out.

    I would get rid of the flame pre-heater and by-pass the FDC before doing anything else. I do agree, if you don't know the last time the filters were changed, to change them. I run hydraulic oil sometimes too and it does sometimes take extra time to start up. I've had to do the ether too on...

    If you consider how much a motor costs, they are cheap insurance you will stay in operating temps!
