May need to move some air ducting if it has AirCon ?

From memory , there is / was 2 different sets of glow plugs available .

1 set / type have a really LOW Voltage rating (my memory says it was something like 6 or 8 Volts)
I have no idea why , but i think it was to make them get hot real quick.
The down side was that if you glowed them manually OR ...

It is most likely melted from glowing too long ,quite common with low Volt glow plugs in the Chevs.... do you have a glow plug timer ..

If you are in a warm climate i would run off 7 plugs till you need to do head work

Leave that plug disconected...

Anyone have measurements ?????

doesnt have to be aftermarket header measurements.
measureing stock exhaust will do

I need to upgrade the headers on my N/A soon to be supercharged 6.5L Chev Diesel.
i was going to just make my own block huggers but i noticed that Gen IIIs (i think) have a similar cylinder layout and it has got me thinking i could just buy a set, chop the flanges off and weld mine on??

my 6.5 diesel was fitted with a single 3 inch air intake manifold "top hat"
running about 500mm of 3 inch hose to a Donaldson air cleaner.
i didnt notice anything wrong with it performance wise.

i have the migomag 260 with remote wire feed . awesome welder . RWF is deffinately worth it .

shifting as much as you can will help

but before you do it , get it weighed ;
front weight
rear weight

also keep in mind what a standard 60 weighs and compare your 60 ute overall weight
the springs themselves may need leaves removed or even custom springs

to fix the problem with the pump being used when not needed, why not put on a aircon magnetic clutch spool?

Switch it on when u need it, when u dont turn it off and let the hub freewheel.

I know its possible, just need to find the right spline/key to fit


this is actually way off.

Hydro assist aparantly can be had legally.

it could be easily done
BUT you could end up with issues bleeding your system every time you re install it.

just paint the ram matt black so its not so obvious ...

Maybe some good ideas?

shane , what does it handle like with the rear winch under load
dont winch it to the bump stops just use it as a really short limit strap

thats the only way i can think of testing if it is the rear anti squat causing the problem

my thoughts were to make it an extra cab.
just enough tray to have a recovery drawer , plus if done right , could use the after market spare tyre carrier ;) roll bars would tie in nicely
