Lol, that's funny :-P

I guarantee you that the dealers are bidding the absolute minimum they can get by with paying, which is the next bid higher than Joe Private schmuck in Poedunk, Genovia. They aren't going to pay twice what the next bidder is willing to pay just so they can mark it up that much higher. Even if...

Gotta agree, they aren't really all that pricey right now anyway. Just be glad you aren't bidding on A3's.

What's a deuce with an LDS worth out of curiousity?

Well one thing is for sure, I'm "NOT" flipping my M35 now that I know it has an LDS-1A in it.

Well, I won't go into it again about how I got this at auction. Needless to say, I was looking to get it cheap, but that didn't happen. And to top it off, I didn't make it there to preview. So, I could've got there and found the IP, or the oil cooler gone, or the starter. As it is, the fuel tank...

This was a repower. The engine is 1981, the truck is 1971

Concensus seems to be that it's running at the LDS power level. I'll find out when I get some seat time later and put it under a load. I do remember when driving it home, on the small inclines we had, it never slowed down.

Red line on the LDS is higher.

Pics

What do you shots of? From what I've read, it looks the same. I just verified my IP does say LDS also. Here's a couple of the engine and tach. GPS said about 56 MPH at 2500. I had plenty of pedal left.

I'm just curious as to whether it is in 5 ton form, or mixed and matched to make regular duece power. How can I tell?

It whisles alright, a lot.

Long drive to find out. There must be a way. I understand parts can be mixed and matched, but all my dates are the same. Could it really be an LDS?

Here are the pics of the tags on my engine. The serial numbers match, the date on the IP, and turbo, and engine match. How can I know if this engine is an LDS-1A?

Well, I have a LDS465-1A, and it came with a "C." I have an engine that "says" LDS, I cna't tell you fer sure what it is, other than all of the dates on the IP, turbo, and engine are the same.

See, you'll be titled before me......

Looks good. I was there a couple of weeks ago.

Thanks :)

:) "Hold until engine gets up to operating speed or until 15 seconds." ......seems counter intuitive, but yep. Would've saved some aggravation had I not missed that. The low pressure cutout is 14# and normal running pressure is 25#.
