Quit busting my beans Nattie, I am hoping to upgrade to a concrete work area someday. :lol: The weather is finally down to around 103 or less during the day. Man it's been a long summer. Global warming my butt. The sun causes global warming. :lol: I have a hard time believing that since the...

Not that much, about 1800lbs.

In all honesty, I am not worried about the injection pump. I opted for the 6.2 because parts are cheaper than almost any other diesel. Fact is that the majority of the 6.2's out there are in need of a IP rebuild sooner than later. Most are 25 years old and have more than 50-80k on them. And the...

I thought that setup looked familiar, can anyone confirm the bomb gantry setup?

Don't let all the missing parts fool you. That is a very straight and clean truck. What would your plans be for it? Return to factory original or do your own restomod?

I think I speak for a great many members here when I say please cease with the negative comments Paul, it gets boring thread after thread. Have you driven your truck yet, Raeme?

5 microns is just right for the 6.2 from what i'm reading. It shouldn't be forgotten that there's also the firewall filter I have yet to purchase. It will filter down to 3 microns and it has a water separator built in.

It specifies it's for use on automobiles and camper shells right on the bag. I actually put the foam a little too far inward of the window where it seals with the frame the first time. It caused it to peel back the foam off the frame. The 2nd time I made sure that the window only squished as...

Yeah, I am working as fast as I can. Only have so much cash to work with at any given moment too. In the meantime i'm picking up some home depot 5 gal buckets and lids so I can start stocking up on WMO. I will be using the "sock filter on a hook" method for now. Filtering down to 5 microns...

Getting back on topic, have you driven your truck yet? I would love to see a video of it running and driving.

You figure only the outside edges will be exposed to any UV rays, even then depending on how your vehicle is parked it's not getting light all day. I suspect it should last 6+ years as plewhiskey said above. M35 weatherstripping is available, but I've seen it run over $300 for an entire...

I just picked up a roll of this foam at home depot yesterday, in the isle where they sell doors, trim, springs, hasp locks, etc. Only I got it for under $4 a roll. This exact size will work to replace all the weatherstripping on my GMC cab. I see no reason why it couldn't be used on the M35...

Original NOS weather stripping is impossible to find, M35 series weatherstripping does work and is widely available, however from what i've seen it takes over $300 to replace everything. I can't justify that. $300 is 6 new tires for me. I found this stuff at home depot while cruising around...

Thanks, and for winter temps which are usually 42 degrees at night and 55-60 during the day. Would the same mix do okay without heating or should the WVO be reduced to 25%? I am not ready to go full heated 100% WVO just yet, so I am looking at the different WVO/diesel ratios that will work for...

I was inquiring about WVO, not WMO. Filtering goes without saying, of course.

I'll PM you the details, so as not to hijack the OP threads. :)

I live in Yuma, AZ where it's about 110 in the summertime. Can the 6.2 run on a 50/50 diesel/WVO mix in this temperature okay?

Love that attitude, people told me a 6.2 would be underpowered in a GMC. So I am putting one in anyway. Hey, it makes more power than the 302 the truck was built with and I can walk into any auto store and get parts for it. I too am using an auto tranny, Th400 that was in the truck when I bought...

For those who say the 6.2 will be a dog in a deuce...... M35A2 -13,000lbs -6.72 gears (9.00x20s) -Most owners say they cruise comfortably at 48-50 at 2200rpm. -The LDT465 makes 130hp and 330lbs of torque. -The Ldt465 weighs 1800lbs and displaces 478 cubic inches. It uses 22quarts of oil. -A...
