    My tow pig/DD build thread. F350/Cummins 6.7/twins/6R140

    "With my new setup, I'm looking for effortless cruising under all conditions with good fuel economy. I'm hoping that between the increased engine power/torque and better gear ratios in the 6R140, ie pulling in 5th gear, that it gets me there" If you want all this go buy a MDT. My Sister-In laws...

    How Do You Flush Out an Engine That's Had the Oil Cooler Bust?

    Have used Dawn and Simple green before. Both work very well with the win going to Simple Green. Almost felt bad letting that water go down the drain.

    Building of a I/O pontoon

    No idea on the 4cyl but I'm guessing 400 pounds. A SBC with alum intake and heads is right around 450 pounds figure another 100 for exhaust manifolds and accessory and your right at the 600 mark. I looked into the diesel thing as I thought it would be cool but there was way to many cons then...

You will just burn it right off there. Todo it right you will need to pull the tranny and get it on its side...
