There is, it's the FCC.

Gorgeous truck sir.

The manifold positions are the same as on a 350 SBC. I know for sure because I swapped the 350 out of my truck and put in a 6.2 with no mods to the exhaust.

Wow... that's pretty ugly right there.

I searched for HMMWV tach on ebay and came up with an electronic tach driven off the oil pump. Looks like it goes where the vacuum pump would have been. The ad said it was for a 6.5 but it might fit anyway.

I'm loving the headlight aux lighting on the roof!

Based on my limited experience with these old trucks, I have found that the manual usually calls for whatever is in the transmission to go in the transfer case. My truck (not a military unit) called for 90wt in the transmission (SM465) and 90wt in the 205 t-case. My Suburban called for Dex-3...

Only saw one once, on Xtreme 4x4, they made it custom for a Jeep CJ8 or something.

I too, wish you were closer. I can't find a set of troops seats out here to save my life...

I might be interested in it too. Will it have the front bumper/grill guard?
