( http://www.heathdiesel.com/C/Exhaust-Systems-Components/ ) AND to check out the '95 1/2t extended cab 2wd 6.5L Turbo Turbo Diesel set up by Bill Heath that will be going to Bonneville in September 2008. Will upload pictures from the truck, ellensburg, the thorp mill, blewett pass and leavenworth this morning...

'81 Chev C20 with TH400 and a 454 in front of it. It has Edelbrock carb (although 1 size too small), chrome valve covers, headers and I'm not sure what the cam is (probably RV grind because it's made for hauling 5th wheel) I'm going to sell it for $1000 obo once I get the 5th wheel setup into my '76 J10 shortbox.

I pointed out that my budget doesn't include such items, so he's thinking about having me sell the '67 J100 Panel and splitting the money with him so we can both buy the cameras... :) stay tuned... keep the popcorn popping... ;) In other news the '94 Blazer got 19.58 mpg on the last tank, which included 3 mountain passes, and hauling about 70 gallons of WVO up to arlington... still need to install the 4" exhaust system... kind of complicated now since I have the 24' trusses in the carport and need to rebuild it... :) john ----- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Snohomish, Washington -o|||||o- where Jeeps don't rust, they mold * SAVE FUEL use AMSOIL synthetics: http://wagoneers.com/AMSOIL * * SAVE ELECTRICITY use Linux: http://johnmeister.com/tmcp.pdf * http://wagoneers.com http://wagoneers.com/johns-vehicles.html - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ End of fsj-digest V1 #3159 **************************
