IP problem with my new Deuce...need advice

Sounds like you are moving away from this option, but there are piston and liner kits on the auction site right now for $147 shipped.

On my current budget I think another LDT is in order.

With a fist full of cash, you might persuade me out of a LDS I have here......................its in a truck and you can hear it run.

A 6bt will run on just about the same things as a multifuel with the right injector pump. I believe it is the "p" pump. I could be wrong on the model. There is almost nothing special about the multifuel. It's just a high compression diesel.

Actually the pistons are specially designed as are the injectors, and the angle of injection. Plus the compression of 22 to 1 . Actually they did make a 20 to 1 compression engine in the early 60's .

That's pretty cool. I love history. And I love keeping history alive.

I am pretty sure I got a motor lined up.a member stepped up with a good deal on an LDT. Hopefully getting it Sat.
Now I need a clufch. Best source ?

Anybody know the part number of the clutch kit if I went to a truck parts supply ?
Also I have to swap my Oil pan and pickup tube . How do I reprime the oil system ?
Edit: I'm gonna end this here and continue with a new thread about the motor swap.
