    Who's going to the Fla Southern Outpost Rally?

    We're having an awesome time, goofing off with our friends and so many new MVs to look at! A CCKW rolled in right on front of a new MTV deuce. Jeeps, a homemade Abrams, and the swap meet was really big. We're going back for a couple hours in the morning, then heading home. We wish we could...

    Blown Head Gasket

    One of a couple different ways. You can use a cooling system pressure tester. This will replace the radiator cap and introduce pressure into the radiator. Depending upon where the system is failing you may see a coolant leak. More often, you can remove a spark plug or injector and screw a...

    Blown Head Gasket

    Yes, the 1D theoretically has the upgraded gaskets but after 20+ years of 22:1 compression, they're all gonna' leak. Devilman spoke to a Continental engineer (I think) years ago and was told Continental had filmed the multis at speed (rpms) and you could see the head trying to leave the deck...

    I think they look really fragile there.

    Succesful recovery

    That's awesome. Such a great feeling to get your first one. That truck looks great.

    Who's going to the Fla Southern Outpost Rally?

    I guess our mix would be about 50/50 socializing and selling parts. We're gonna' have a bunch of deuce cargo cover kits and that's about it in terms of stuff to sell.

    WWII Chevrolet 1 1/2 ton 4X4 telephone const. & maint. truck

    That looks good. Please tell me your plan is to restore it and not just scrap/hack it up. I can't help on the value. Just not knowledgeable enough about the uncommon WWII stuff.

    LDT-465 rebuild

    Oh. That was the prototype mockup. It is wired up now, with packards and everything.

    You have to be creative: or:

    LDT-465 rebuild

    I forgot the rod bolts. I am so used to sending rods out to have them "rebuilt" (resized, rod bolts replaced, etc.). You may find buying new rod bolts to be difficult enough that buying new rods is a better bet (but let your machine shop balance them obviously). In terms of breaking it in, if...

    LDT-465 rebuild

    I'd buy a new cam and lifters. You obviously will have the crank checked and turned/polished if necessary. I'd have the reciprocating assy. balanced. I've never paid attention to the multifuel harmonic balancer, but if it's like everything else and has a rubber ring holding the two halves...

    Who's going to the Fla Southern Outpost Rally?

    Thanks, that's very kind. Well, we won a crap ton of stuff at Eglin (clintogf should have bought a dually instead of her wimpy 2500 :razz:) so we're trying to decide if we do a "hit and run" and grab our stuff at Eglin and head home, or do we turn it into a long weekend and come to the show...

    2014 MVPA National Convention- Louisville, KY

    Since we're not entering a vehicle, we'll be in either a Civic or Dawn's Ram 2500. But yes we can.

    GA Meet, Greet, and Eat

    We'll be there and we'll bring a deuce of some sort.
