Not sure if I can find the pic of the HMMWV's we did in desert camo for TACOM presentation but I will look in my files. Also I have a pic of my buddies CUCV clone that we painted the same way after he got a load of the HMMWV's done that way. He also did his IH/Scout II in this pattern...

Hey jwaller !!! popacom has a few,you got a Goat or just lookin for items to repro? They had 2 different designs on these that I ran into when I stripped down a pile of Goats back when the Govt. got rid of the bulk of the Trucks. Give me a PM or phone call and we can discuss this further...

Crazy as it seems,also make sure all the bulbs are the correct type and number. I got into this same issue and it was the bulbs had been replaced with the wrong ones. Also remember your turn signal control can give these same problem,as the wiring for the stop lights are routed thru it and...

The resistor is a ballast resistor in this application. The resistor goes in line with the 24V lead that originally fed the waterproof dist. on the GMC engine 24Volts >into the resistor,which drops the voltage to as I said around 13-16 volts which the GM HEI dist. will tolerate very...

Hey guys!!! I built a bunch of M-715's up in the past and the way I got around this issue was using a 12Volt starter(Just limit crank time to no more than 5 seconds) and use a HEI distributor(Which needs to see 12V and above) with a dropping resistor with a value that drops voltage to around...

I am not an expert on tranny's by any means, but my transmission Guru says the easiest way to say it is The turbo 350 and the 700r4 share a lot of things,out put shaft size and count etc. To bring it down to basics the 700r4is a turbo 350 with overdrive. The 4l80 is a Turbo 400 with overdrive...

Hey 2deuce ,popacom / BILL in Ky. here. I been into that before when I used to work installing parts people bought at the salvage firm I worked for. The output shaft on the 700r4 is the same diameter and spline count as the Turbo 350 transmissions and the 4l80 & 4l80E are the same as the...

All I am saying in small print since you prefer it .............you can polish a Turd.........but when you are done ,you still have a Turd. Repower it and you will enjoy the truck more . This is not based on Motor science it is based on my personal experiences with a Fine truck with a less...
