Stop in for a cup of coffee

I will try to get that today

Just give me a call when you have it. Easy to do and I have some Packard 56 plugs so no biggie.

 

[ScampMike]

the truck has a header on the right side and the original manifold on the left - the header is leaking and has SO much weld slag on it it's obnoxious.

 

[ScampMike]

I would love to mess with a V10

there is that

 

[dartnabout]

Here is mine but a mere 360....wish it was a diesel

 

[halifaxhops]

That's weird. How hard is it to find headers/manifolds for it?

 

[ScampMike]

I did note one hole in the frame - fixable, but it's there and I wouldn't get to it this year

You want I can make something up with 10 GA and use a plug. so it is just the right length.

Maybe ok for a bike battery, dont need much for tender,but 10 sounds small to jump through. What awg are cables usually?

I understand parts for this truck are fairly hard to come by

 

[halifaxhops]

He is going to look. Bike batteries are pretty small. On my sportster they were 10 Ga.

 

[halifaxhops]

Weird one header one manifold.

 

[ScampMike]

right front tire is just about bald - 'specially to the outer edge - alignment or is the truck tweaked...

 

[ScampMike]

Weird one header one manifold.

sure made me wonder WTF...

Tell you what motors go for 4k.

Here is a small classified site. There was a V10 Ram that needed frame work and if I remember it was fairly cheap. I don't know if it is still on there.

I am kinda hoping to find something I can put on the road and get inspected right away - really tired of running for fuel for the plow truck.. it would be nice to be able to drive the plow truck to the gas station.. - it's the little things.. LOL

 

[halifaxhops]

For a winter only truck just have it going and pass inspection, what else it needs that you saw?

Do you have an inspection system like PA? Find someone to pass it and then fix the obnoxious manifold and work on it as you drive it.

Scary but Hoppy and I seem to think alike.

PA you would need to inspect, but no emissions required if less than 5K miles per year.

Hoppy did you get that website?

 

[ScampMike]

so it needs tires, exhaust work and a rocker plus there is a hole in the frame... oh, and no windshield washer - LOL

We are both frugal (CHEAP)

Bumper stickers over the rocker rust will get you through
