Butch, while I appreciate the way God's plan is unfolding lets leave my truck out of it in the future. With the rally's growth and permission I can see this evolving into other mods/resto/crazy builds in the future.
Butch brings up a good point. I'm not sure what power is available where we will be. I have a light tower with 3 lights that can light up a 3 to 5 acres. It has a 6KW gen head on it. It's not too loud and could be stationed a touch away or I can add a second muffler to quite it down.
When Ron &...
Looks like I will help a couple of Clinto's Graphs and contribute to the fun the the Duncan Deuce motor swap rodeo. I'll arrive under tow and leave as a powered vehicle. Being the glutton I am I might arrive with a gaggle of kids to bump the numbers up.
All I can say is WOW! Thank you all for your help.
I'm putting together a list of what I know is needed and who has committed to what. I have a cooler that is big enough to hold a marlin that will be full of water and sodas. I'm bringing a couple of EZ-ups and some folding tables to spread out...
I've got a new westfolk primary filter on the way. I have new secondary fuel filters. I need to look at what # new spin on oil filters. We will need coolant. Might as well put new belts.
I have a dead Deuce motor. The short story is I was driving along and had good power, heard a thunk, engine shut off and I coasted to a stop. The good news is I was able to setup for a recovery safely and Swiss and 73m819 were able to swing back and snatch me off the median quickly and safely...
I got the call I was dreading this evening. Sounds like my cam broke on the front of the motor. So it looks like I'm looking for a used motor. Looking for advice and options. I guess I'll start a new thread in the morning after mulling it over overnight.
Thanks to Ron for the assistance Sir...
Wheelspinner, if you decide to go out of ATL I have space in the motor pool. 35 min from the airport, 3 min off 85. I'm sure I could also get you to the airport. Fares out of ATL will be much better than GSP.
Ok some of you might think I'm a whack job but I had a great day. I had a good time with all the kids at the event. I had a great time with all my kids there (I believe the final count was 7 plus a friend). Great company at the event. When I did breakdown I was able to be safe and ready for...
Ron & Steven thanks for the great time this AM & the save.
I now need recommendations on safety chains.
I have some flares & glow sticks for evening events.
Sorry, I was asking if the oil level rises after driving the truck. If I can quote Clinto there are 5 places that fuel can enter the oil on the truck. 3 of them are in the area of the IP & HH. If that is happening you would have low fuel pressure and be at risk of washdown/wear in the engine...
