That is cool. I wish I could speak a forign language.

Um, what language is that?

That is what I thought. I am seriuosly thinking about doing the same thing.

What kind of difference do you see at highway speeds? How are the RPM's? Has the around town driving improved?

I saw a lot of that when I lived in Florida. There are some well biult trucks down there then there is that 1%.

These are the photographs I have from the rebiuld. I do nto have any of it re-assembled. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/attachments/deuce/244046d1304298025-air-pump-rebuild-questions-dsc05706.jpg...

By any chance would you have or can you get photographs? I wonder how it does with out the drag of a second drive axle but with the drag of 53's. I also wonder what kind of highway speeds it can achaive with reasonable RPM's.

That is different than mine, I think that is why I did not notice it. I have the two cylinder compressor. I do see how it can attatch though. I do not think I require a spacer, ot if I do it will not be as long.

This is something I have considered long and hard. But I have decided the 12 foot bed is way too useful fo rme to cut up. Now, I am going back and fourth on losing one of the rear axles instead.

I am still going back and looking at these photographs. I can only spend small amounts of time working on this truck so it is getting dragged out. Behind the compressor is a block that holds the fuel lines in place. Can some one tell me if that block is bolted to the back of the compressor...

Thanks man, I will look them up.

That is I specified it does not run. I thought that might be a factor. I do nto see any leaks though. At least not around the valve covers.

While trying to get some repairs doen to my non running deuce, I notcied every one of the valve cover bolts were lose. Is that common, or is there a reason for it. I thought maybe they just have a real light torque spec. Also, it looks like the seals for the valve covers is a sealant and not a...

This is an interesting thread. I have been taking measurements and trying som mock ups on my deuce with the intention of installing an intercooler. However, what you have in mind appears to be simpler. I am very interested to see hwo this turns out.

Do you know the part number for the assembly?

I will have to look into that addition later on. I see your point.... Maybe a catch can is something I should consider then.

I sure do miss that sound. Thanks for the videos, I saw soem things I had not thought of yet. WHat is the orange bottle for in the second video. I figured a PVC might help reduce a mess if this engine belches more than others. $20 is a releif, I cannot dump a bunch of money into the project.

I figured a PCV should be doing that job. I do not suppose there is one out there that will fit tgis old truck. Oh, any idea what I am looking at cost wise to locate a governer?

What does it dump out, oil or debris? I gues I need an air gonerner then. Do you think my set up would be any different because I have the twin cylinder pump?

Does that mean that tube just dumps on the frame rail and side of the engine? If so I would like to axtend it to avoid the mess.
