  1. Well, there goes the easy part..
  2. aux shaft bushing issue is like hens teeth.. when you drop the pan, roll the engine and look for machinist stamping. if the crank was turned there will be a measurement stamped in the counter weight at the journal that was cut.. also, when you push the bearings out, (1 at a time) .. when you look at the part number, there should be a P-1,P-2 ect. if they are not P-1.. the journal was cut. this will help you choose the correct bearing thickness.. and yes, rods and mains will improve oil pressure.
  3. Space-x launches a 400' rocket with 39 engines and it failed and explode, plus it dropped junk to the ground or atmosphere.... and the rocket people are ok with it.... but my old Chevy truck is destroying the ozone layer, along with all of everything we drive accept E.V.'s. even though to produce an E.V. you have to burn fossil fuel... Yep, I'm Dizzy now.. what say you.??
  4. I would be proud to own that truck... even with out the crane.. 👍
  5. Is the 454 fully mechanical?
  6. No, just picking at Mech.. there is still the spring steel wedge in the edge of the door that holds the key hole in place..
  7. Oh Hell... that is amazing, of course I dont know what you are talking about. I am not a farmer.. but I do something similar in my small neighborhood.. When the Not white drug dealers on my road disrupt our nice road, I call the law.. They get here when they can,.. when I say, they are off the chain and I am armed and I'm in my yard making sure they dont go crazy and so-on, they are here in less than 20 minutes.. The Law knows what the hell is going on.. I guess in my case,,, I know what to say.. Yet to be handcuffed, jojo
  8. looks like you pulled rod caps.. good deal, however, Main #2 + #5 feed the top end. Did you pull those?
  9. On an E-7, it is easy to set the pushrod next to the lifter instead of in it.. so when you install the new one, just be sure you are in the lifter.
  10. Mech.... I was hoping you would get the joke.. Luv You Man.. jojo
  11. I love messin with you.. yes,, you can change out the door locks in a few minutes.... and the ign. switch. is not too bad either.. just need a 10'' adjustable and a pick to get that done..
  12. 2 minutes if your aim is good,, getting the stem to hit its target can test your patience. But yes, as Mech says, 2 minute job..
  13. as I read this thread, the more I really like internationals.. Me and my best friend had scouts back in the mid 80's, and I currently own a 48 KB-7, as you may know.. I am really leaning towards wanting more IH's of any kind.. Thanks for the inspiration.. Jojo
  14. I always stand on the side of farmers. They are the life blood of our survival. Its hard work, but the idea is simple, till, sow, reap. propagate... then do it again.. with respect to you Bob. I by know means say that farming is just plain simple, it take a special person to raise our food and lumber and cloth, and so on. Jojo
  15. Bob, It's just more of Biden selling us out,, that's all..
  16. I have heard that Canada owns a lot of our farms.. the 30% I heard mentioned China.. I guess its best tonhere itbfrom a true farmer.. i still dont like it, we need to own our land. Thank you Bob...
  17. Well your doin good, and I like that you are here. We all learn from each other.. Jojo
  18. I don't believe a short block is available, just long blocks, they call them Basics..
  19. heck, the so-called spy balloons could carry a virus, and ,,,,,,,,, wham !!! we are infected.. yep, not one shot fired....
  20. I know I can only do a little at a time to be part of the solution.. however,,,,, I can be a stronger if the need arises..
  21. TJC, are you sure?? the Chinese own 30% + of our farm land.. why wouldnt they kill us..
  22. M.C. They are here to KILL us.. and unlike our current president, China wont tell us when they will strike.. jojo
  23. E-7's ? short blocks from Mack??? Hell, I tried to get an E-Tech re-man and was told to send my engine to the re-man center and IF they can rebuild it it would be 6-9 months... because they didnt have that engine in stock... Its no mystery why I use PAI parts,,
  24. I say it because they always ran good and I don recall the amount of issues compared to an MP.. I am not a wizard on these, just tossing out another Engine model.. I will always be a Mack Guy.. Wonder why no one wants to use a 12.7 Series 60 Detroit.?? I think they are great engines.. jojo
  25. just get a volvo D-11.. its a better version.. or a D-12..
