    6TL batterys

    Bjorn has an article about EDTA in Military Vehicles magazine. It is labor intensive but would be well worth it for the cost of new 6TLs. I have been draining and saving batteries for 4 years now, hoping to find a cheap source of EDTA and have time to clean them out. JT

    Water Trailer

    Actually 400 gallons of water weigh 3192# exactly. Still does seem like a big load, but if tires are rated for at least 3000# each, trailer weighs about 2900#, total is about capacity of tires. I'll stick with 9.00x20's on my buffalo.

    427 turbo Question.

    The 427 hyper-cycle used a real big turbo, comparable to the early 5 ton multifuel 465. I have one in a dump truck that still runs great and I have one with a broken crank in a can. I can look at the one in the truck and see if it is waste gated and if there are any numbers on the turbo. I have...

    finally

    I prefer a non turbo over the turbo any day. They start better for me and I don't need to worry about replacing one or shutting down to quickly after a run. And don't you guys notice the difference in the turbo sound just as the oil pressure comes up after you start the motor? whether the crank...

    Saying Good Bye

    I just bought a piece of land to put a garage on to house my trucks, so now I have to sell some of my trucks to pay for the garage. I really don't want to sell the trucks so I do a lousy job of advertising them and don't run the car salesman routine just for the sale. It sucks being an addicted...
