  2. Just to stir the pot, I weight about 11k (rigged out welding tk) Before the blue chip vp and nothing changed 14.75 avg. best 15.25 with EZ and rv275 - 1st blue chip vp 15.0 no matter what, up hill, in town, 15 and no mods. . 2nd blue chip vp 16.0 avg. I have got 17 on flat at 55 and no modsThis new to me eng. I am going to install, guy said he avg. about 19-20 on a 3/4 ton 2wd stock everything auto trans.I am curious why a rattling truck with 252k that weighs 11k gets what it does. would this dully get 19-20 if it where stock? I bought it and had it losded out before I could check mileage.New to me eng., I think I am going to run no ez and no ddp50hp and see what happens. I really think I need to put the blue chip pump in while it's easy though.
  3. Wow, mobster hiding in Idaho:ahhh:
  4. Yea I dont know what it is about that. I have a batt out of my old 7.3 that is running my electric gate at the shop, when I put it in I thought it will be good for a little while, and now it's been going for 5 years I just that it keeps going.
  5. I agree:thumb1:As long as you dont have to go back into it :lmao:
  6. I have been on jobs where it was just flat out cold and would leave truck idleing to have a little heat. I guess no more of that.
  7. Good question, should I use RTV on oil pan?
  8. So hook up grid heater back up to help with warm up. Even though it kills the batts and hard on regulator.
  9. Would hooking my grid heater back up be a smart think to do? Also what would be a good warm up time before HWY operation?
  10. Yea I think I will, at least front and rear main.
  11. You must be reading my mind. I was just seting here saying to my self, self should I put my DDP 50 inj.
  12. Yea no kiddinHow nice would that be? I should have my new to me eng. with 200k on it by this week end.
  13. Check this out http://austin.craigslist.org/ctd/2201876803.html
  14. I have found a real deal and thought someone may like to check it out. But know nothing about pulling pic and posting it here.
  15. I dont mean to high jack but am I understanding it right when you say dont let it idle long? You say go ahead and start lightly driving to keep build up from forming? And is this build up in the form of fuel in crank case?
  16. Will the apps off a auto work on a standard? And are the injectors out of a auto the same as in a standard? Both are 01 SO motors.

  18. I went and looked at it and listen to it and it sounds to good to be true. It's nice and clean, quite, it's to weird.i am used to having to slice through the bull s---. The guy is young polite got all his drinking days behind him. All stock no mods. not even the intake or exhaust:hyper: I am stoked about it. Going to pull it out tomorrow I hope.It's a auto, only down side. But I have all new parts. Question, is the apps the same in a auto as a standard?And are the injectors the same in a auto as a standard?
  19. Electronics wont be a problem for me I already been there . I am getting a fair amount of spare parts. Have two stock clutches with pressure plate if you know anyone needing one. Lots of rockers.Going to listen to future new to me eng. tomorrow, its complete with assy.
  20. My thoughts also, I hate having to deal with it too.
  21. Yea, the oil pan know I remember. What about supporting the(manual) trans, can it be left intac with the crossmember bolted to the frame?
  22. I thought I would start here with the questions of pulling eng. I have heard of raising cab to get it out. Are there any good write ups on the subject?
  23. Who was the second member of the mopar1973man site?
  24. I am going Saturday to hear a 01 run, he wanted 3700 for it:lmao: and I explained that they sell for 2500 on ebay and he said he would take 2500. I guess he wanted to make me feel like I was getting a deal . Oh I almost forgot, the guy that was going to build me a short block, called today. I hadnt call back yet:lmao2:
