    Water Pump Broken Bolt

    I used the old bolt, I was setting it to 20ft Ibs of torque and it broke soon when my wrench clicked. I put a lot of teflon tape before I threaded it in. As much as I want to get it out, I would hate to remove the entire water pump back off to take off that broken bolt

    Water Pump Broken Bolt

    I know I'm going to get eating up for this one, but I ended up breaking one of the bolt heads, do I actually have to go and take this bolt off to avoid any leaks? This is one of the two bolts on the bottom. I know the water pump is completely sealed off from every other bolt torqued down...

    Intermediate cadillac value

    My last cadillac valve done this same exact thing, about 2 weeks later, either it gave out or something else, that cause the fan to turn 100%. I decided to do away with that whole crappy system and go to the viscious fan clutch setup, can't wait to see how it does. No more failing TDMs, Cadillac...

    Don't know, I can definitely see a difference in comparison with the 6.5 NA, that's an almost 100hp difference and probably has almost 2x more torque

    m998a1 mpg

    Interesting, makes me wonder how it would do behind the P400 6.5s, unfortunately they're really rare, but I'm still a huge fan of the 6.5s because of how simple they are compared to the duramax and the size compared to the cummins.

    m998a1 mpg

    I know dead thread, but wouldn't a 6L80e or 6L90e be the best overall modification for better MPG? Overall, you get better ratios and have a .67 overdrive. Even though the 4l80e is a good upgrade from the 3 speed, it still burns a lot of fuel at 65-70 big time and the engine still be screaming...

    Is there a way to run Optima batteries in the HMMWV?

    I run everstart batteries so no reason the optimas shouldn't work

    Anyone installed the Restomod Air aftermarket AC?

    I was very close to getting this kit but I couldn't imagine paying that much for A/C, at that rate I'll sell my M1123 and get one of the A/C trucks, I ended up with a small mini split unit: 12000BTU 24V Air Conditioner Split Truck AC Cooling Unit Fit Semi Bus RV Caravan | eBay The only thing...
