    How About A V8?

    GM had planned to release a 4.5 liter ''Baby" D-Max motor, but it has been 'indefinitely postponed' for the time being... was tentatively scheduled for production at GM’s Tonawanda Engine Plant near Buffalo, N.Y. The 4.5-liter Duramax was a major innovation for diesel engines. It was designed...

    US to transfer HMMWVS to Iraq

    Snarky - I don't think we should be worried about the potential of Iraqi's using the HUMVEE's against us... when it won't start due to glow plug or relay issues, or the crank breaks, or the transmission gives up the ghost, the only way they could be used against us is if they drop them from the...

    Failed turbo install

    Chain-store 'muffler shop guys' are usually one link above 'oil change jockeys' on the lower end of the DNA chain... I use the independent muffler shop guys, one shop in particular here in Raleigh does very good work & gets plenty of referral business from me. 'Tanner'

    M37 n.o.s gas tank?

    I'm not aware of anyone producing them new. There may be an NOS tank out in the world, but a good used tank is probably your best bet. Someone has used a fuel tank from a newer civilian truck - IIRC, it was a tank from an Isuzu Trooper/Rodeo, or maybe a Chevy S-10 pickup? Can anyone chime in...

    Trouble getting access to broken starter bolt

    You MOST DEFINITELY need to run the rear brace piece on the starter on a 6.X motor; otherwise, you'll be back under it again fixing more damage. 'Tanner'

    6.2L Diesel vibration / HELP!

    GM's 6.x diesel engines are external balanced... If you want to spend some coin, Fluidamper offers a 6.2 & 6.5 viscous fluid damper, but Summit or Jeg's will tap your purse for about $400+ 'Tanner'

    Want to purchase M37

    Mr Whitehead, welcome to the Steel Soldiers forum! I would suggest that you contact Cabell Garbee here in NC for an assist on locating an M-37... he's a good friend of mine & I'm working on my M-37 at his place. He might know of an M-37 available on the East Coast. His website also has a good...

    Engine oil mythology debunked, and ZDP content

    The API specification change to CJ-4 for 2007 has resulted in moderate zinc reduction from about 1,400 ppm to 1,200 ppm. And even at these slightly decreased levels, ROTELLA T 15W-40 conventional and 5W-40 synthetic still contain three to five times the amount of the desirable anti-wear...
