    The Deuce and Truck Weight Stations

    Be prepared to hand out some cash when you register it. You will need insurance, SF-97, a bill of sale (because you are using an SF-97), and money. You will have to register it with at least 14,000 Lbs of weight on the registration. Then, they will charge you a onetime highway use tax. Keep...

    looking for Whistler Turbo

    I guess I should have said that. I do have the underside of the hood insulated and the inside of the firewall. So that, plus the muffler makes the sound level good. I don't wear hear protection anymore...But I have been told my hearing is not the best.

    battery cut-off switch for deuce

    Re: Voltage draw Or use a multimeter or an inductive amp meter. Then you actually have numbers to work with. Sense you have your meter out already, you can also check to see how much A/C voltage is being produced by the alternator (when running). You should check it at the alternator -...

    The Deuce and Truck Weight Stations

    One of the nice things about NC is that you don't need a CDL for 26K+ (for private trucks). There are Non-Commercial licenses available. Class C, B, and A. http://www.ncdot.org/dmv/driver_services/drivershandbook/chapter1/typesLicenses.html

    What is the trick to get the inner rear lug nuts (studs) off

    I was always told that lube or anti-seize on lugs is illegal. This was also said by the NABI rep when he was at my work to train us on the new buses. I know of many places that will penalize you or fire you for putting anything on lug threads.

    Anyone tow with their deuce?

    If your going to repower the truck, I feel it is assumed that you would also use a transmission that is correct for the application. Why would you keep the stock trans? One would install a trans that keeps that the new engine in it's power band. The stock trans were meant for the stock...

    The Deuce and Truck Weight Stations

    You don't need to stop. At first, I was paranoid about it too. Things you should take care of is insurance and a tag (if you can). I got a personal transporter tag when I went and got mine. You can now only get them at the DMV main office in Raleigh. It's $14/yr. If you can't get one...

    How fast do you drive your Deuce?

    I run at 55-56 MPH. It was designed to handle those speeds, so I have no issue with it.

    Oil Bypass Filter for M35 and other...

    I would not use the turbo discharge tube. The turbo needs to have no back pressure. By adding an additional flow in that discharge line, you may be creating one. I would guess that bypass filter also fits in the same category (considering the discharge port size).

    Looking for Parts / Dealers

    Considering that your in PA, I would call Saturn Surplus (717.692.9500) They have a lot more stuff then what's listed on their web site and you could pick them up to save on shipping. Do the panels have to be NOS, or are good used ones fine?

    Run gasoline or diesel in a multifuel

    A Multifuel is a multifuel. The FDC does NOT make it a multifuel. It only serves to provide a consistent amount of power on a lower BTU fuel. The only modification that can be done to make it unable to run difference fuels is when some were converted to M35A3s. The multifuel was then...
