    deuce boost

    with non whistler turbo, 9 psi at 1100 degrees pre turbo. I don't push it past either of those and I don't stay there for long. more like 7 PSI and 900 degrees.

    M109 rear door width

    When one opens both doors on the back of an M109, what is the width and height of the hole? Most interested in the width.. Anyone know the width of he opening with either door opened as well? I assume all M109's are alike in this regard.. Thanks, Patrick

    Let's Discuss Ways to Increase Power Output

    Regarding the stock M35 transmissions, there was a post about the ridiculous speed at which 2nd gear spins on its shaft when the multifuel model is in 5th, and that the transmission was designed first for use as the non-overdrive behind the gasser. Then with the later multifuel, overdrive was...

    Urgent Migration

    if the government wants them back, then offer to sell them back. Kinda hard to enforce your rights when they are not in your hands though.

    "OPPS" M923 meets HONDA...

    I'd have parted the good stuff out of the car before smashing it. Good pics. Careful you do not mess up the underside of the truck doing that though. I would like to see for an encore a heavy tracked vehicle squish a charged prius battery pack. (note: fire truck needed for that..)

    New V-100

    The V100 is possibly the sexiest older wheeled armor around. I prefer it with the flat top.. The cost puts me in the looking area instead of the owning area. There is a Czech 8x8 that's hot too. long and low and mean looking. Probably slow as a pig.

    Problem with Air

    could be a kinked line - -any rough activity lately? anything loose somewhere? If you got no guage pressure, the buzzer must be driving you nuts.

    would you give up your wife for your truck?

    Yall have a bunch of good wives. Sort of wish I had one now. But I'm too old to be chasing babies.

    would you give up your wife for your truck?

    since I'm not married it's easy to say 'no' to the non-existent wife.. I would have to say that any woman considering marrying me would already be aware of my truck and electronics hobbies beforehand. At least one date and maybe a camping trip would have been in the M35. For any relationship...

    Connecting MEP to house

    #4 per conductor would be plenty good for that. The machine is configurable for single phase 120-0-120V? I ask because some generators can do 240V but it is not split into a balanced 120V per leg output by configuration. For those, one must go inside and play with the wires.

    M39 series 5 ton transmision swaps and axle info

    haha well that answers that.. I think an M800 series will be the better choice, but the limit is the Cummins engine at 2100RPM. Maybe with 53" tires.. 900 series are out of my price range, and also maybe slow too. so, changing the question to the 800 series, is there any swap or upgrade for...

    Please read: The Dangers of Brake Cleaner.

    nine days after ... went to the emergency room. What is wrong with that picture. 9 days of weird symptoms and unexplained discombobulation of the body.. and it took 9 days to decide to go to the ER. That guy must be pretty tough but I'd rather admit being sick than end up dead. Life is too...

    M35A2 Transport vs. Drive

    I drove my prize home from VA to TX knowing little about them other that the seller said it was completely roadworthy, and with a tool box for company. But I like adventure. The shift handle came off in my hand while accelerating on an on ramp about 500 miles out. I your case the seller does...

    a couple questions about the deuce

    The cab is 10-20 degrees hotter than outside due to no insulation gainst the heat blast from the engine and somewhat from many small air leaks. You can do something about most of the air leaks. The fuel mileage is not a concern. Things break without warning or just go bad.. In 20,000 miles, I...
