anyone here bid on this???
well i came across this 7 days ago, right after it was listed. i mean when i found this, it had 6 days, 22 hours left on it. the bid at that time was $10.50, and i couldn't believe my eyes.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT
with 55 seconds left, the bid was $130 something. i threw in my bid in the last few seconds, and i was outbid. i could go up to $405 on it, that was all my finances would allow, with getting that adapter needed. just wondering if anyone bid on this. i was hesitant to tell you FTE guys about this when i found it, because i knew alot of guys would be wanting it.

Sorry, it was me. I didn't want to tell anyone either, but I figured that someone from this site would have their eyes on it. I had a max bid of $500. Figured that would still be $175 cheaper than Beans after adapter and WW, and this one is new instead of rebuilt. At $407.5 I guess it's about $250 cheaper. Anyway, I needed something now because my HTPS is on it's last leg.
Is diesel innovations the cheapest place to get the adapter and WW? Also, Beans told me that I only need the WW. However Bob at dieselsite tells me that I need the ATS and the WW. Sure would be cheaper without the ATS housing. Anyone?

I was told by Alan, owner of the truck "White Lightning" here in CO that the best way to do it is leave the stock wheel and go with the ATS housing. The stock wheel moves more air than the WW. You also have to think ahead of what your plans are with the truck....towing, racing, pulling, etc and think about that when doing these upgrades.
