    Proud new deuce owner

    Kelly, I did the turocharger conversion to mine and I'm very pleased with the results. The non turbo trucks use 2 1/2" ext. pipe and the turbo trucks use 3 1/2" tube so the pass through hole for the stack will have to be opened up, I used a jig saw followed by some metal files and it worked...

    Finger pinchin' @$&!

    Will, I made this one from 1/2" cold rolled round stock, bent it using 3x3x1/4" square tube steel and ran 1/2" x 20 threads on, took about 45 mins start to finish and looks just like the stock units. If you want one made, let me know. Jeff.

    Choosing your first Deuce...what would you do?

    Big Mike, I would take into consideration some of the following because I have never purchased anything from a G.L Auction. How many dollars you will have to spend AFTER the purchase price, which,without a test drive its kinda hard to know if there is anything else that needs...

    Turbocharging Project Complete

    Jwaller, Since the fuel injection timming remains the same yet I have been very easy on the accelerator but I did test it out. Just cruising around 30 MPH steady speed there isnt much happening on the boost and the pyro reads 600 F . 45 MPH going up an incline ( about 8% and 1/8 mile long )...

    Turbocharging Project Complete

    It doesn't whistle at idle but when your driving it does have a distinct "whistle" to it upon acceleration and deceleration . Although its not the C turbo I really do like the way it sounds, Very deep and powerful.
