So I got a Diamond setup(a copy of a Meyers EZ Mount Classic) and I want to put it on the CUCV but finding a truck mount was near impossible. Only one guy in PA had one and he wanted 550$ Plus shipping and it would probably need to be modified anyway due to the hieght of my CUCV so I decided I...
Are you sure it's a tranny problem ? sounds like a dead IP from what you are describing. Is there any grey smoke when it's running like crap ? Does it do it if you stop or does it idle normally ? Also if you suspect tranny how dos the fluid look burnt ? smelly ? If it's chattering then that...
So from the pics It looked to me like the banks cleared the second alt no problem. I was thinkng about buying just the pass ex manifold rfom them(400$) and fabbing the rest using an f intake off a 6.5 and a Holset hx35 turbo with an ATA IC.
I did 4 inch with 35's . I can run about 65-70. Oddly enough I checked the speedo against my GPS and it is within 2 mph. It almost seems more accurate now.
BTW alot of autoparts store idiots(not all mind you) can't use a bench tester. Idiots at NAPA told me two of my starters were bad. Both were fine. Problem was a shorted batt cable.

Yeah I found that out the hard way. Some idiot put them in my CUCV before I bought it. Made 8 little adapters. The truck wouldn't start good at all cold. I put 60gs in and 1/2 crank it's running. Night and day.
What voltage are the Wellmans ? 24v ? I have a set of AC delco 15's that I believe to be 24v that someone put in my CUCV. I took them out and put 60gs in The 15's have round connector. If they are what you need you can have them for what ever shipping is but I can't guarantee the condition.
Boing!!!
It looks and drives bad a$$. I gotta say didn't pickup as much top speed as I had hoped but what I did notice immediatly is the truck has much much more power. This is going to seem stupid but I think being so over geared with tiny tires it was running too high an RPM and past it's...
