Very cool man, Im just getting into it right now

I think the name of the stack is just called a pump-out stack. Its a 4inchish wide pipe with a 90 degrees fitting at the bottom, and a center removable piece of pipe with a fancy little setup on it. Its really a waste, and i wish i would have known that before we bought it!

We also installed a fiberglass tank, no heavy lids on that bad boy!

What do you guys dig with?

As for lines, I havent had much of a problem with them, yet!

Gonna take the rear axle, engine and trans outa her and put them into a chevy K20 making it a 3/4 ton dually truck. Project name Plow Biot**. the truck is a single axle truck. I was under the impression that it might of had either a 6.9L or 7.3l IDI engine. It's starting to look like I gotta look for a 7.3L IDI engine to drop in the K20.

Sheldon, could you just put some insulation in the pipe til you need it?

A couple feet of fiberglass insulation pushed down below the frost line should work.

Jacob, was the K20 a diesel?
