    "Inventing" a "New Multi-Fuel Engine"

    Actually being in the diesel performance businuess myself we are after dropping the CR to make the motors more reliable at higher RPM and Cylinder Pressures. A race built Duramax or Cummins would not be high compression. Common Rail diesels have began to excel at burning waste oils. Durmax and...

    Deuce Dump

    It is a 12V electirc, unit out of a topkick. Dump time depends on load fully laden I would say anywhere from 15-30 seconds but I have never timed it. I postioned the hoist a bit forward to help the hydro get past its break over. I tryed it toward the rear of the truck but the flex in the bed...

    Deuce Dump

    What the pic don't show is the finished product. I cut down his tool rack on the driver side so the truck could dump with all the tools in the rack. It is NOT functional as the tools are permanent but it loos more original. The truck recieved a full repaint top to bottom and a hard top.

    It took alot of fab work to get it to tuck up in the bed rails the way we wanted, but it was well worth it.

    Using a Multifuel turbo on a gas engine

    You could change the impeller wheel to a more aggressive design more suitable for gas application, but... that would cost money and a used turbo for a gas application can be had for close to the same $$$. I've been thinking of doing twin whistlers on my Duece with a custom intake, not sure if...

    If he is a member of Rolling Thunder then yes. He has been trying to talk us into joining them, I would say once dad retires again he will have more time and he will be joining up for sure.

    109 Vans are not fun to paint, and I would highly reomend you get the Turbo motor, we had a "Dirty Burn" non-turbo and the other was a "Whistler" the performance of the Dirty Burns is pretty low and with that big box on the back wind hurts it pretty good. If you do your research right on the...
