    Any one interested in a Starter rebuild thread?

    Once you resolve the stalling issues, the starter's last a long time I've noticed :) I'm on my 3rd.

    6.5 grounds

    I used stainless steel carraige bolts... The key is to have threads long enough to thread a nut up there, then the contact is from the NUT squeezing in. You aren't relying on that easily strippable stock design.

    Really high egts and lots of cold smoke..IP ?

    Gotcha, I thought you were referring to a hesitation along the rpm range, not from 900 downward. Touche. :) I guess I read what I wanted to read, not what you wrote. Re-reading it, it was quite obvious. :)

    Really high egts and lots of cold smoke..IP ?

    I'd have to say thats only 'normal' for a tired pump. When I did this test for Bill Heath he told me look for ANY fall-outs or stumbles. I did it about 15 times and I have none. This doesn't mean that pump wont last another 100,000mi ... especially well lubed with additive. Have you done a...

    Big list of things

    I switched to green 30,000 miles ago when my head had to come off. That was 120,000miles, with factory WP, and now it has 150,000mi with green A/F and factory WP. So I noticed a fseemless transition other than now its green, like A/F should be :)

    JVC HD radio install & feedback for my 6.5 friends

    nope .. just buy the receiver. It utilizes the frequecies that were freed up when TV went digital. We can also thank that digital change for the 4g wireless internet. I don't buy these things until they are the norm and dirt cheap.

    Hows the plowing going?

    She's a whore. Giving us about 18" tomorrow. Loving it. I upped my ballast to 900lbs from 600. As it was I BARELY had to use 4wd. It just takes the bounce out of the ride, and MUST ease thing s up on the front end parts. GO 6.5! Just hit 150k today.
