    85 Ramcharger powertrain swap from 91 W250 cummins

    I was thought I might be able to get away with something there... Should be easy with it all being old stuff, but when when I wreck the pickup, I'll be taking everything just in case. I've been doing some research and I may have to keep the existing harness to have the a/c functional... seems...

    85 Ramcharger powertrain swap from 91 W250 cummins

    Hi everyone! I've been absent from here for awhile, but I'm back to announce my latest project! (Because we all need more projects. Right?) My wife just bought herself a 91 W250 cummins to swap the power train into her 85 Ramcharger. She hates half ton brakes and I told her the best way to fix...

    Whistley Mufflers

    Whistley Mufflers

    Anyone have personal experience with this one? I have looked at some tractor/trailer ones but they are heavy... like 60#s I'm hoping someone can show me a design that they know has a good whistle and maybe I can copy with aluminum. Also, I am just tossin' this out there... 'cause I...

    Whistley Mufflers

    I have been considering a muffler. 4" variety. I was wondering if anyone knows a good muffler to use on a 6.5 for rumble reduction, but retaining the straight-pipe whistle. If not, I'll be leaving it straight-piped 'cause I am a whistle junkie!

    Bought 2 cans of Sea Foam,,,

    Great thread guys! I have been using seafoam for years on small engines, as well as large. It's miraculous on 2-strokes. I have only used it in fuel systems, sometimes straight, mostly with gasoline. As compared to crc or gunk harsh spray dealys, I find it to be better. This...
