Worst case, I sell off the engine I have. For the money I have in to it, the buyer will get a he'll of a deal, and I'll make my money back. Till then, the search continues.

Pump and injectors came in today! And the new turbo. Still hunting down an over drive transmission that's a single counter shaft and 6 speeds that can take 1,000 ft-lbs. I might just have to go automatic.

How about the RTO-610? Over drive is .80 and the weight of the transmission is 350 to 400 lbs

The more I think about it, I think a 10 speed would be sweet. A NP203/205 doubler behind that transmission and that would give me something like 30 foward moving gears! If I couldn't find the right ratio, I don't belong driving, lol.

I'm looking in to transmission options. I'm considering the ESO 66-7B spicer or the FSO8406A fuller. Are there other options out there? I pulled the oil pan yesturday. The bottom end looks great. I got rid of the fan and the air compressor. Also took apart the turbo. I'll be ordering a rebuild...

The lizard skin is a hear barrier and a sound barrier. It's water proof as well. The engine is going to be a straight pipe back to the bumper. Doesn't the Allison trans use an ecm/tcm to run? I would like to stay away from electronics if I can.

I have the motor on had. Injectors and pump went out this morning. That's why

I would prefer a Manual, the wife wants an auto so she can drive it, and the internal debate begins. lol. The top speed and Red line is of no real concern for me. When this project is done, It will be driving through the DFW area during morning traffic and some local driving. The heaviest load...

As far as the engine goes, I am going that route cause I found one used for $800 running. For the trans, I have no clue. T case I was thinking a NP205 beefed up a bit. High range 1:1. The rear end I think could take it with some stronger shafts; keeping the 456 gearing. The front end I was...

Well, 800 lb-ft @ 1900rpm would allow for cruising under that. Basicly off idle. If the Ford guys can do this with their OBS trucks, why cant I. The leafs will be getting replaced.

Torque rating estimate of 800-950 lb-ft. Going off a spec sheet; @ 275hp it makes 800 lb-ft @ 1900rpm. The engine weights in at 1400lbs fully dressed

I would like to go 4 or 5 speed trans and 2 speed transfer case, if possible. I'm going to have to do more research as to what the torque out put would be. I do know the engine produces a good amount of torque. The build would be in stages; Stage 1 would be engine, trans, and T-case swap Stage...

2012 is when they started building the A1s. If you look in my photo album on this site, I have tons of pictures of my excursions with the HET

I've got a large sum of money coming to me in the near future. So I plan to buy a CUCV pick up. Would like to swap in a P pump DT466. What trans and transfer case would be compatible? If I could, I would like to get about 300-350 hp out of it. Any idea as to how I could go about doing this?

air down the rest of the tires, and ride low on your deck height. that should fix, for the most part, hitting power lines. while pulling a bobtail truck that went down on the highway to san Antonio (static displays of a Bradley and M1 for the PGA tour) we went under a bridge. the fresh air box...

that is one of the improvements I had suggested for the A1s when I was at Oshkosh previewing/testing them; roller guides for the winches. We use the tanker bar to guide the main winch cables in, and have at least 1 person pulling against the cable to provide tension. I had a weird load once. we...

this I don't know. I'm drawing from my time with the LLY Duramax engine. the compressor map in stock configuration has the turbo running at the surge limit. this is because of a poorly designed air inlet pre-turbo to post air filter box. By changing out the "turbo mouth piece" or the turbo...

As far as air restriction, I personally would make the intake (turbo inlet foward) the same diameter at the turbo inlet and make any bends smooth, along with trying to eliminate bends if at all possible. Also, increase the flow rating of the filter, and increasing the size of the tubing foward...

First, welcome to steel soldiers! The HEMTT technically falls under the 5ton and up section. The P1 upgrade kit is the frag (up armor) kit for the cab and other combat related accessories. The A1 is the up grade from the original with the cat engine and better transmission and other additions...
