Nope, nothing that sinister, at least on the surface. They need me to help run an outfit in Poland. Can't go into more details, but should be an interesting time.

My new super thread is up! Feel free to gawk at my feeble craftsmanship.

Well, a couple of new things purchased today. My shifter cable decided to take a crap, the little rubber boot that holds the sleeve portion in place split and rendered my truck unshiftable. New one should be here early next week. And this happened in the parking lot of the shop I bought this from!



not sure what year it’s out of. Has the larger plenums so I know it’s a 99+, but it doesn’t really matter. The heads and block are really all I was after. Let the slow motor build begin!

I took the plenums off this morning haha. I’ll slowly get it torn down and then I need to clean it up. Probably has 1/2” of crap built up in the valley

thanks! If anyone is looking for some stock components let me know! Has 15 rocker arms (haven’t looked too close but nothing looks terrible at a glance), and once I dig into it I’ll figure out if it’s a PRM or forged rod motor and I’ll have the rods for sale. Also will have the SD cam shaft, SD turbo pedestal, exhaust manifold etc. I can’t really think of anything anyone else would want, but if anyone is looking for something just let me know!

Riff raff sells a late model res spacer, and dieselsite sells an early model res spacer.. I have the early one on my 95 and it works great.

Main reason I want In SD reservoir is to run a cnc 4 line feed and bolt it to the reservoir.

I was unaware of the dieselsite spacer, I need to do a little digging to see if I’m going to keep this front cover, if I don’t, the reservoir is all yours
