    Need a new exhaust

    Well it looks like headers are cheaper and I can't find used manifolds and there's no way in hell I'm pulling those off Ina junkyard. I think I'm going to do headers, a short pipe and regular old turbo mufflers or flowmaster 40s. What's the best setup for headers? Obviously natural ones will...

    Need a new exhaust

    Ya the transmission crossmemebers are different for single/dual exhaust. There Vin tag on my door is long gone, someone could have retagged it long ago. I think I might buy manifolds and a y pipe spec'D for a K10, I don't need or want to pay for a dual setup.

    Need a new exhaust

    There's no air pumps on mine. They were never there or removed. My truck is a C&C truck and the GVWR is 12500. Those look nice, why the hell would someone throw crappy headers on.

    5.9l Cummins swap into a lucky Square Body

    No no it was one of the last few years of the second gen i think it was just 93... most 1st gens dont have the intercooler. Ford didnt get an intercooler until 1999 :hahano:

    5.9l Cummins swap into a lucky Square Body

    VE is great pump for you it would be just fine.... 93s and maybe 92 12vs had intercoolers. the 12v is all mechanical just an electric shut of solenoid like the 6.2.

    5.9l Cummins swap into a lucky Square Body

    You are mistaken.... The 24v the ISB Chews through injectors every 120k and injector pumps every 100K The VP44 injection pump is also very expensive. Plus the lift pumps die and kill the high pressure pump. Buy a p-pump 12v the injector pump is lubricated by oil not fuel and they...

    jeep NV242 t-case on a K truck

    Both of my Chevy k30s have the 203 full time. If you weren't in the lock position the truck would never spin tires. Didn't matter if the back tires were on ice the fronts would grab and the truck would launch. It was impossible to spin tires in that truck

    NP203, NP205, NP208 Differentiating Power to front and rear axles.

    Both my chevy k30s have the np203 4hi or 4 low acts like a car awd system. Meaning the front axle doesnt have to turn when the back does. The Np203 is considered to be center differential, ie it does the same thing for your front and rear axle as your diff does for your front and left tires...
