Yes. It will cause the front of the truck to fold into a taco and push the engine into the cab when you hit a wall because the air system bled down and you didn't know so, leaving you 0% service braking ability. These trucks are old, everything on them is failure prone. If you are annoyed at...

That's still one of my favs. I'm blaming everything on that from now on. No. The guy left the trans on the engine, and that drove me to load it differently than I planned, so tires later. I'll be busy for a while anyway with this.

So, my truck almost caught fire, or so it seemed anyway. When I picked up the engine, I wanted the frame mounted fuel filter because one had a WIF (water in fuel) sensor in the base of it, so you just add a dash light for it. Anyway, I put both cut off filters in the bed of my truck. 5 miles...

You're fine. I hit "upload" twice, so it double posted the pics, so then I went into "manage attachments" or whatever and deleted them, but a link to nowhere is still posted. Here, I will post them correctly this time, just ignore above...

I screwed up posting the pics, but apparently you can see them. Trailer is an open deck car hauler. Just how it was made. I didn't complain when it was given to me for free. Make sure you guys keep up on your storage lot payments!

ISL has a 5 bolt crank pulley vs an 8.3/ISC 4 bolt. This helps to identify an ISL longer stroke crank. Also a shot of the donor vehicle. Back was ripped away with an excavator to remove the engine.

Negatory. Engine guy left the trans on it, so that screwed up my config. Yes, same trailer. Free to borrow it anytime if you need.

Drove over 1000 miles one way to take CSM Davis to dinner. One heck of a stand up guy. He's even smarter than my GPS.

Step one, acquire 400hp ISL engine. Check.

The $100 SAE 2 manual linkage clutch housing just walked in. Hope to not have to use this.

Did you check both fuses under the dash by the steering column?

Probably had an 8.3L or a 250 with two sprinkler boxes.

That's one thing I'll have to be careful of, with more power and overdrive, to not outdrive the tires.

Nope. Watched it on YouTube once, we should be good to go.

Bought a used air assisted hydraulic clutch slave actuator and fork. Also won a super clean non-assisted hydraulic one on eBay for $25! Ha! Win.

14" cup type flywheel, naked. The twin friction discs sit inside and the pressure plate bolts to the top rim. A spacer flat plate fits between both friction discs, and is keyed to the flywheel rim with square shoulder pins so it can move but also be driven from the flywheel. Third picture is...

Come drive it when done. This was your thread, I'm just along for the ride. Bought an M35a2, was too slow and small, sold it a week later for double what I paid for it. Bought an M925a2, it held family of 4 and went faster, so that is fixed, but feels and sounds like a bus cause the trans...

"The Howell's"...my favorite! Are the piston squirts the only thing keeping a 250 from being a 500? These aftercoolers are everywhere laying in the dirt, and the turbo should be easy to ID. Up fuel, and you are off to the races. Hobby MV application is less duty cycle than any commericial...

Flywheel and modern shift knob, playing soon at theaters near you.

You guys are a bunch of tool boxes. That 855 will drag me down the street in flames. The rest of yours, I'm not so sure about....
