    M1009 Transfer Case Replacement

    Nothing wrong with a well maintained 208,but the the 241 has 2.72 gearing vs 2.61 for the 208. 241 has an oil pump to feed top of case also. And if offroading a lot,241 aftermarket parts are more available. If you go with an old 241 I would install new oil pump,just to be sure.

    CUCV Replacement battery

    If looking for the best battery this one looks pretty good.Braille battery group size 34,lithium ion,1,265 amps at 32 degrees.For a small amount of $999 each.For a group 31 size its $1499 to 2,949.Crazy!

    chasing air bubble from 6.2

    I had a 93 Olds that had 2-3 bleed screws to eliminate air pockets,I saved them.It was front wheel drive cutlass supreme.Worked well maybe check the yards to plumb in.

    chasing air bubble from 6.2

    I thought about using that port to tie a tanks style block heater into,then I read some where else it is prone to air pockets.Got me thinking,what if you moved cold start sending unit to front of motor and tied left and right rear head together with a crossover if it would help to keep heads...
