That does not bode well Andy.

good morning everyone

Good Morning CT! :)

Happy Tuesday! :D

Good morning CT!
Its Tuesday and first day of the week for some of us.
So lets get this day rolling.
Have a great day! :)

:-wink Hello everyone:

I updated my bumper and oil filter post.

Andy, please fill me in on the "6.4 banjo bolt" mod, I presume its for Aaron's 6.0?

Any links?

Is this also from ARP?

Last I recall ARP just had a set of head studs.

Thanks

Now to fill you guys in on my job interview from last Thursday up in New Milford.

I was the first one to be interviewed, they said there would be a second round of interviews before the final selection is made.

They seemed interested in hiring me, they had a few concerns though.
One was that I would get bored there.
Second was they were astonished at what my rate was down in Stamford.
Seems they have hired an mean dog previously and are now concerned about the new candidate's Teflon coating.

Its just over an hour's ride up there, so I'd stay in my truck while off-shift for the two - three days stints they run.

morning guys... from jersey.



whats good out in CT to do?

Fuel Tank Repairs & Modifications.
 

What can & can't a shop legitimately do to my fuel tank?

The original fuel tank in my truck is aftermarket, I believe it was installed by the people who put the fiberglass body on the back of my van.

That tank is powder coated, and now the coating is flaking off.
I was thinking of taking the tank and having it sandblasted and then have a bed-liner polyurethane coating sprayed over it.

My local welder only fabricates 'water' tanks because he can't DOT label them.
But I wonder now that since this tank already has a DOT plate on it, to ask a shop to cut the tank apart and make it larger before having it coated.
Of course if I ever cross the boarder with my van, Customs might want a closer look at that.

I also wanted to weld in a drain bung in the event I too get a watered down load of fuel.

:-wink Hello Fern

I'm sure DOT approval goes byebye as soon as you start cutting and welding on that thing. I say sand it and spray ot with a cam or 2 of under coat if you're that worried.

Andy, that storm had best turn to snow.

Good afternoon CT.

College visits, fun fun. I can keep my truck and snowmobile here at Vermont tech. Good stuff

The casinos are always fun, even if you dont gamble.

dave- good luck getting someone to fab your fuel tank. can you find a larger tank readily available that will fit?

pete- my coworker with smart phone just said its going to be snow on sunday.

fern- casino's, new haven has great food and if you are into it you can watch a show (i go for the pizza), there is mystic seaport and aquarium, lots of hiking trails, waterford speedbowl or stafford springs will be starting up in spring...what did you have in mind?
