As far as the stud lube you cant go wrong with the lube ARP suggest, but for the block do not use silicone it attracts water and will rust the studs not good. I use as well as all the engine builders at my work, use either Loctite 565 tread sealant or teflon sealant the stuff in a small jar with...

I took her for a good ride today and did a couple of 0-60mph blasts and WOW this thing pull like a raped ape all the way through, and when it gets close to 50 it seems to pull even harder. I dont even have the ATT turbo on it yet, Dennis was going to get one prepped tonight. So when I get...

Well after a few long days shes alive again! Bled the pump and injectors, put the glow plugs back in and within 3 cranks she fired right without hesitation. Sure love the sound of the ole 6.5 running again. Took her for a few mile spin tonight, everything was good no leaks. Now I got to...

Well I spent all day today installing the trans, transfercase and engine cleaning and painting parts as I go. I ordered a new converter its a 1000-1200 stall billet stator and a kevlar clutch should be a nice unit. I only need to finish up a few things and she should be ready to make some smoke

Well its been almost 2 years from that faithful day when we were headed upnorth with 4 of us and a loaded 28 foot 6 place snowmobile trailer. We were about 100 miles away from home motoring along @70 and all of sudden boom, the crank broke, damn. It broke right at the rod counter weight. Towed...
