Headers aren't the problem they are available for both 4WD and 2WD. If you have 4WD you can even get a hooker exhaust system to bolt to them. They make a system for headers AND manifolds. If you are like me with 2WD we are both in the same tank. I am tempted to buy the 4WD system and get out the torch and welder! The exhaust system sends both pipes down the Right Side, I assume this is to clear the aux tank(I have that as well). Someone MADE the dual ex sys on my truck but I don't know who!

I am going to put it under my 86 F150 that i converted to a solid D44 about a year ago. It has been working great but I have constantly been snapping the D44 axle shafts....Probably due to a heavy right foot and a healthy 460 but anyway. And since I am swapping my 35's for some 38.5's It was only going to get worse. So in goes the D60. Anyway... my front suspension is pretty much identical to a 79 F150, And I thought i would ask for some advise from people who have done this before. Anyone? I have taken the radius arm mounts off a D44 to weld onto the D60 axle tube, but i am assuming the D60 has a larger diameter tube. Are they close enough in size that I will be able to just grind or torch the inside of theD44 mount to fit the D60 axle? Track bar bracket is easy, and I think my existing steering should bolt up just find. (Hopefully I'll have enough patience to do a tie rod over while I am at it.) Anything else people have run into?

Ive pretty much decided Im runnin propane on Tweety, as the new 460 will be requiring 1.89 premium. Since the largest mixer is only 450 cfm, Im definitely going to need to of em.

Kewl! You have my support. As much as we've grown over the years and knowing a little about what this service would cost, I couldn't see how you've been able to keep it going this long. Like Steve, I don't think I could survive without my daily fix of FTE! This looks like a good way to offset the cost without compromising the list. Thanks again Ken, for all you've done and are doing for us. If there's anything we can do to help, please let us know. Long live FTE!!! Later!

I could use information from anyone that has either done such a conversion, has already researched it, or knows of a source for the info on how to do it. I do not want to eat up a lot of bandwidth here prattling on about the details, so if anyone can help, if they could email me off-list I would appreciate it. As the project progresses I wil be happy to share the details of it with the list as it all gets sorted out. Thanks Jim Elliott ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 21 Jun 2000 09:58:14 -0400 From: Ken Payne Subject: Re: ADMIN: Important FTE Announcement > > Hey Ken, > > How about the sponsors message in the area thats >added to the end of all the messages?

Hey Steve! It'll be on the top of the digest, and occasionally one will run on the bottom where the current unsubscribe info is (this will be when the client want a quick 1-2 day burst of ads). We'll be working with a 3rd party company to supply them and they insist on having it somewhere around the top. It will be text message. A third party agency will be supplying the sponsorship, therefore editorial influence will be eliminated. I wanted to avoid it, but the combination of the lists eating up 40-50% of the server bandwidth (we pay bandwidth fees) and taking FTE full-time has put us in a bind. It was not an easy decision (I consulted with several list members before doing it).

This time its a little different, I'm actually working on the swap and have started a page documenting my "progress" I'll warn you its pretty basic right now, I've been getting setup for it for a while now, just finally got started on it last night. Here's the URL for those interested: http://www.ford-trucks.com//lc/lc.php?action=do&link=http://www.public.iastate.edu/~wish/Tech/Steering/steering.html Oh yeah its for the old "assist" style steering on 4x4's to the newer (78/9) "integral" style.
