Hoods are plentiful. I'm diggin' the backpack leaf blower idea. How cool would a gas powered remote turbo be? Still a big fan or the big red button tho. Gotta find a use for that.
And now, from out of nowhere, a good idea. Now that you have the intake watertight and stout. How many electric blowers would it take to have a selectable turbo? With a huge red button to smack when your just about to get caught and need the extra HP? OOOOOOO I like the idea. oh and a...
The anti-blue-connector bandwagon
Im going to join the anti-blue connector club. I work at a marina and there is a launch ramp next door. The blue (and red, and yellow, and white.......) smash-on-thru-the -wire connectors are fine for some uses where they will be protected and dry. Please...
I thought I'd try and get a pic of the Oshkosh at the Charleviox Airport. It has a huge blade on it. Hasn't snowed enough I guess because it is still hiding in its garage.
I have seen a similar gauge setup before...
If my memory serves me correctly, the technical resource FHM had an article involving a similar gauge/system. Actually, March 2007 rings a bell..... As an interssting side note, the system was used in armored divisions and in some aircraft also. - Andrew
If you use the same post on each truck, ie, forward battery positive, rear battery negitive post. same on other truck. I have done this with a 24 volt excavator using a dump truck to jump from. Look for where your slave plug hooks to the batteries and put your cables there. Andrew

My bad.
Thanks for helping me out. My bad, I put it in the wrong place. Thanks Stretch. Poof, sorry for making you spend your valuable time to post a reply. -Andrew
Anyone out there have anything to say about the Navistar C170 inline 6 cly engines? Local Cummins service guy has one he doesn't want (International-vs-cummins?) Anyways, I know they are used in school busses, anyone like or dislike these? Would it have any deuce potential? Andrew
I have used a blaster machine "The Farrow System" A buddy of mine has the machine and it works like a Well it works realllllly well. And it uses water so the death by CARC dust is delayed......... This will go all the way to bare metal tho.
And back off track, I don't have a 1896 Mercedies pedalwagon, I was wondering if there is a mounting kit for the newer tennis-shoe parking prake. I can paint it green if necessary. The varnishes wheel is too much for me. You guys think HMMWV wheels will fit? Oh, and good luck with the...
Can anyone verify if the m1008 uses the same fuse block as the civilian trucks? I have the '86 factory manual set for the civvy models. Has a decent diagram in it. I will try to scan it.....-Andrew
