Unbelievable craigslist personal ad...

I dream of someone like you every night! Can I see a picture or two?? I am a medical doctor I think you would like me. I am a little older, but I sure clean up nice. Here is a pic Look forward to hearing back from you honey. -Vince Clartho, Keymaster of Gozer" She wrote me back just earlier this evening, pretty explicit so I wont copy paste it because there is no real content other than bad language hahaha.

nv5600 junk
Really haven't had any luck finding a eaton with overdrive around here. Been looking into rebuilding the nv5600 myself, but after doing some research, it aint happening. Found a list of the little press adapters and stuff someone on another forum put together, Found a few of the tools for sale online, 5 tools I could find added up to over 1,000 bucks. Plus I don't have a 100 ton press, apparently the 50 ton I have wont do the job.... So I am definitely going to have to find a used nv5600 probably, an eaton would be nice but they are rare.

Head Bolts
Yeah you are right they are torque to yield, but the only way to stretch them is to torque them 200 lbs or something crazy. They are hard to ruin.... But it really depends on how YOU feel about your motor... lot of people just reuse them, and have no problems. New set of 26 bolts is cummins # 3927063. Run you 100 bucks! 12.9 is a stout bolt!! --- Update to the previous post... and if you happen to measure all your bolts and a few are stretched out, let me know I have about 208~210 spare head bolts, you pay ship ill mail you how ever many you need. Place i work, their policy is replace anything and everything so i snag the old stuff from the scrap bin i have got enough crap to build 5 motors probably.

Timing Cover Redemption
Awesome. Where did you find that stuff at? Never seen that before. Cummins make some like that but it is 40 bucks for 10oz tube so no thanks hahaha.

Timing Cover Redemption
Awesome! What kind of silicone you go with? Man I have terrible luck, every single time I pull that cover off, the crank seal takes a dump. I hope you have better luck! --- Update to the previous post... And what exactly is the paint you used? I want my whole motor to look like that. Did you sand it or just pressure wash.

Unbelievable craigslist personal ad...
Buddy of mine likes to browse the craigslist personal ads. He sent this to me this morning, apparently it is a wonderful gold digger woman posting her demands for a male... I found it quite amusing. http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/w4m/2005607998.html Yikes! Anyway, I thought I would share the link to the ad like I said I found it fairly amusing.

Bear hunting rifles
I haven't had any problems with 'em, bought 5 guns now from there, they have remodeled and now have a massive selection of firearms. Yeah OK archery is good, another good one is davenport's in prague that is where i got my z7. Place down in Ada called baileys outdoor on broadway street will let you shoot any bow they sell, even the z7's, hoyt element etc nice bows. It don't make me a bit of difference either way, just my opinion I have never been out with a crossbow let alone shot one more than a few times so i really can't speak.

injectors
Good information and insight all!

Head Bolts
Nah you aint gotta replace them unless they are stretched out but I have never seen any that bad. you can leave turbo and manifold on, the rest of that stuff takes minimal effort to remove. Kinda hard to do them 2 rusty bolts for the back of the turbo that go to the exhaust, but they will break free.

No problem. Little hard to get at them with the crank in but I will try to get a good high res. shot of them.

Bear hunting rifles
Awesome, yeah 90 pounds you would have to go into beast mode to draw that back.... Got her all sighted in and ready to go? H& H gun range is still workin on the expansion but when it gets done that will be a top notch place to go shoot if you live in the city. Highly recommend one Fast and quiet! Sorry to hear about his fingers... I lost my ring finger and middle finger in a hay baler 1 1/2 years ago... Trying to pull out a wad of grass and my girlfriend [at that time haha] hit the pto engage knob "accidentally" and they sheared clean off going between the drum and belts, I think it was because she was an idiot. Complaining about the heat so i said go sit in the tractor cab, blast the air and stop whining to me about it. She had the attention span of a prairie dog or hamster so I assume she wanted to play with the buttons. Hmmm... yeah I am not real sure how I feel crossbow hunting vs. compound bows and recurves.... Does kinda seem like they should be allowed only during rifle weeks maybe...very similar to rifle hunting it seems like....

Freshening up engine thread...
Yeah I grandpa around EVERYWHERE I need to get on it once in a while......... I didn't know that, thanks! For some reason when GM designed the fuel filter for this duramax motor, they failed to consider whether or not the fuel filter would stop water before it got to the injectors and pump. --- Update to the previous post... Screwed around with the motor a little bit today.........

Bear hunting rifles
Oh yeah an AR would suuwwweeet.... Didn't know that about the crossbow rules.... I don't have one but think that would be a pretty fun toy. What kind is your new compound bow? I got a Z7 Matthews and a couple old junker pse's... You been out in the woods this year any yet??

Bear hunting rifles
That is awesome! :thumbup2: I like going iron sight too... I have a sight on my tank killer gun though, but you would want to come find me and beat me in the face if i posted a picture of that gun and said how much money I paid for it...hint...it is bigger than anything in .40 caliber hahaha and is semi automatic. Haha I would have went looking for that deer if I were in your shoes, food for a month! What I live on pretty much, that and wild hog, I process my own kills from field to freezer. .375 hh will kill anything, that is a sure thing! pics bud pics hahaha i love all guns!

Bear hunting rifles
thnx, i would recommend winchester, they are well built. Nah haven't taken this one deer hunting yet.... it would drop one quick though I think! 400 grain bullet drops like a rock after 200 yards so it would be great for close range. Usually go with my old browning a-bolt in .300 win mag for deer. Fun stuff. You hunt any?
-
Bear hunting rifles
Anybody living up in bear country on here have any big guns to show off? Decided to dust my winchester model 70 off...... and shot about 24 dollars down the barrel (3 shots hahahaha) Still has the made in usa sticker on the barrel, so as you can see it doesn't get taken out of my gun safe very often. just thought I would take a few pics of it and the cartridge, probably not very many folks have one this big. It's a .416 remington mag. Surprisingly, it kicks less than a 12 gauge.

Freshening up engine thread...
Just got my duracrack back on the road again. Had to buy 8 more injectors for the thing. Yikes, this happened about 2 months ago!! Unbelievable. Hoping that the warranty on the injectors i had to buy and put in 2 months ago will cover it. Bosch has to inspect them and it could take 6 - 8 week before I will know, and guess what, if it is water or dirt that caused the failure then they aren't paying. I have got to get a better filter setup for this hunk, the stock filter wont stop water. anyway, it will be a few months before I can recoup my savings account and can continue work on the 01 project.............
