It looks excellent Paul, the color combination is very classy.  Andy

That is a cool KW.  Andy

Mal must really be cracking the whip over there, no time for a BMT update?  Andy

I'm glad you brought them up, I will probably give them a ring next week.  I was trying to remember them before, when I was after parts.  They seemed to be a good, old school shop.  I may bring the truck up there when it's done and have them check the engine over.   Thanks, Andy

It looks like a 400 badge in the picture of the drivers side, but it is hard to tell, and who knows if it is correct.  Andy

I am fixing up a 1969 International F210D semi- tractor with a small cam Cummins, after going through all the work to get it fixed up, I would hate to have it burn up because I reused the old wiring.  I m thinking the 15 curcuit American Autowire kit I provided the link to should do the job as well as provide me with options to add other things in the future.  I would think that aside from modifications to operate the fuel pump shut off as opposed to ingnition, it should be a relatively easy install.  Has anyone used one of these kits, if so do you have any pointers?  Also, is anyone aware of a harness more suitable to this type of application?  I have used a painless kit in the past for a car with good results, but I believe they have become a little overpriced over the years.  Andy

I have a 1968-1969 Cummins NHCT-270 in an off-brand truck, it seems to have a regular old PT pump on it.  The factory mechanical tach is junk and I would like to get a new Stewart-Warner to replace it.  Is there any way to tell if I need the 1:1 type or the 1:5 ratio?  I'm totally clueless as to how I would figure this out so, I'm hopeful that someone here has run into this.  Thanks in advance, Andy

Are you still lettering, or retired?   A friend of mine used to use a guy name Carl Klouse (I'm sure the spelling is wrong).  He was on the north shore of Mass, but I believe he got sick and retired.  Andy

Very cool!  Andy

Seems reasonably priced.  Andy

What does the IH have for a engine?  I wish you were closer to me, I'd have you "fluff up" a couple of my projects if you wanted.  Andy

Wow, that is an interesting looking rig, very cool.  Andy

Nice, I've never been much of a Ford guy, but that is a sharp truck.  Andy

Hey Paul, that is terrible about your sister in law and the animals.  If you want post or PM the address, I have a good friend who may be interested in the entire property.  Andy

Not to disagree, because it may not work, but sometimes you can weld stuff like this, I'd try it.  I would media blast it and grind the area needing to be welded, than put some heat to it and then blast and grind again.  To me it would be worth a shot, but Id try to find a guy who is used to welding contaminated metals (fuel tanks come to mind).   Andy

If it had the older style rims, it would look like a photo from an old sales brochure.  The paint job is awesome.  The automatic is a major bummer though.  Andy

Yikes!

I guess it is kind of cool, but I don't get it.  Interesting for sure though.  Andy

Well done guys, I must say I would have considered pin striping that white car on purpose to teach them a lesson.   Andy

I don't know much about them at all, but I have been told that it was common that a turbo be added as well as pump and timing changes made.  Maybe that is what you have.  Andy

Looks to have alot of life left in it.  Andy

Great job, I think I have one of those brackets that you could have.  Andy

There was a post, I don't know where it went.  I think Mike had a pretty serious health scare, as I remember he was doing OK.  I believe he was starting a lengthy recovery process a couple weeks ago.  He had been updating via Facebook I heard, but I'm not on Facebook.  I would hope that someone will chime in with more/better info.  I hope he's doing well.  Andy
