    Intercooler?

    Short reply, I typed out a long reply 3 times. Water injection. Do a search under google. Its what I'm gonna do. Too many variables with intercooling (lack of space).

    The Deuce vs. HOA's: How do you guys deal with it?

    Ive been lucky with mine so far. I live at the end of a culdesac and have known all my neighbors for 12 years and they are all great. If it comes down to it my truck just barely fits in the garage with the top and mirrors off. Im already paying $75 a month to store my motorhome and my wife wont...

    K & N filter

    I had a boost guage on my 1st truck with a 1D motor. It had about 7 lbs of boost stock. I swapped in a 1C turbo to see the difference and it put out about 5.5 lbs of boost stock, but sounded better. Didnt have a pyro guage though.

    K & N filter

    It was a bad choice of footwear considering I was at the trash dump climbing around the back of my truck unloading rusty nailed wood. I was careful and came home unpunctured.

    K & N filter

    Finally got the pics downloaded. This was my trip to the dump with 3k lbs of junk in the back. Took a pic of the boost/egt guages while going up a moderate hill in 4th gear I believe. Only getting 18 lbs of boost now since turning down the pump a tad out of fear of causing some damage. Dont mind...

    How does the GL process work?

    I've bought 3 trucks from GL without inspection. 2 of them were $1200 and I picked them up, gave them a thorough once over and drove them home 150 miles each with no problems. The 3rd truck I accidentally bid on and was a P.O.S. with a bad whistler motor,cost $600 to tow home. I paid $500 for...

    Herculinerphile

    Heres a golf cart I built and painted with herculiner since the fiberglass body was in bad shape. It totally covered up all the imperfections and looked great. I used the roller that was supplied in the kit. Its only good for 1 application but as long as you keep it wet by dipping and rolling...

    K & N filter

    The set up is temporary, I plan on making a filter housing out of sheet metal then utilizing the mushroom cap to suck in the outside air. Even though its sucking in the hot engine air it still makes a big difference. The filter could be made to fit inside the stock canister if the canister was...

    Hopefully the pic was uploaded. I plan on making a filter housing or modifying the stock canister to accept this K&N filter.

    Help with dash at night

    The first time I drove in the dark I was coming down a 2 lane winding canyon road. Needless to say the lights cut out for about 1 minute with on coming traffic on the drivers side and cliffs on the passenger side with no moon light. Talk about pucker factor! Now I just stick to day driving until...

    Muffler Modification.

    Thanks for the compliments! Im still trying to master the art of welding as you can see, they arent the prettiest but they work! Im heading out today to put the bed back on as I've got to tear down my patio cover and haul it to the dump (darn termites).

    GEEEZ, Finally got the pics figured out, (I think). My truck is still rough looking as I am still slowly sanding etc, and the bed is off. Polverone, PM me when ever you want and we can get together and talk duece. All my friends and family think I crazy with the Duece infatuation. Its nice to be...

    Muffler Modification.

    I got my Napa muffler on today and I can't believe the difference. Now with the turned up fuel rate you can really hear the turbo scream! I was able to weld it on low enough that it does not protrude above the steering wheel and I can still park her in the garage with the windshield folded down...
