Thanks! Good luck with your build.

Me to!

Thanks for the help!

Haha yeah we could tell the old ones were holding us back! These are cab lights for a 98 dodge. They flow really well with the fenders.

That’s why after learning about them we knew we had to put it in the loadstar! And keeping it an international engine was much cooler than doing the cummins swap.

What trans are you using

I had heard of timing lights for diesels before. But I had no idea how they worked. Was pretty cool.

Worked like a charm! And sure beats 30 dollars for the “correct tool”

@@gingerauto Totally beats the cost, and good old American ingenuity wins again!

It does sound so good!

Thank you 🙌🏻

It is a great engine. I would trust driving this thing across country. And it does sound amazing.

I honestly don’t know how it senses the injector firing. But we hooked up the sensor to the #1 injector line and it tells you when it’s firing. You need to know where the pump is timed at. As well as where the engine is timed at as well. You can set either one of them. Or adjust them together. Decide what your desired advance number is. Example. If you want to set it to 20 degrees. And you have the pump pinned at 18 degree. You need to set the engine at 2 degrees to reach 20 combined. So you can adjust either one to reach what you want. The guy who rebuilt our injection pump told us what he pinned it at.

I believe the sensor picks up the minute flexing of the injector line when the pump builds pressure just prior to the injector popping off.

These are 24.5 wheels. We had to cut a lot out of the firewall and build a dog box. The 466 will require a lot more cutting and will go a lot more into the cab.

My brother in-law reminded me right after this haha. One of those moments I knew better and got sloppy in the moment!

Woah that's a good tip. I know what you mean about super high pressure like that. Sometimes painters accidentally hold their hand or arm up to their high-pressure paint sprayer nozzle and inject paint right into their skin. It's absolutely disgusting what happens next. Your body takes the signal of foreign liquid in the interstissual area and just tries to kill of that whole part of your body. Your hand can die and become gangrenous VERY quickly which is a great way to get blood poisoning AND lose your hand unless you get to a doctor quick. They have to do surgery and clean out the paint inside your tissue ASAP. Diesel fuel is probably similar, even if it doesn't make it into a vein and into your bloodstream.

It's a P pump, but, yeah, always treat a gun as if it's loaded.

@@LemmyKutcherGrass what

@@skylargrabner6771 it's a saying... For those of us who grew up with guns... As for the p pump, it doesn't make enough pressure to hurt you, but still, safe habits are good. Just like treating a gun as if it's always loaded. You follow me?

We used the radiator out of our 71 loadstar1800. We don’t have a fan yet. Probably do electric fans.

It does sound pretty dang good!

Don’t know what it’s out of. But eats an Eaton fuller fs06406. 6 speed with an overdrive.

A camper would be sweet!!

Yes they are 24.5 machines down. And I think they total diameter is around 33 inches if I remember correct.

We mounted the axle over the leaf springs. And notched the frame a little.

Honestly have no idea.

These DT360's are not great on fuel fyi.

On what?

They are Alcoa wheels from jk motor sports. Cost around 3200 for all six mounted and balanced and shipped.

They mount differently.

@@gingerauto ahhh poop haha, okay well guess I’m on the hunt lol

I don’t want to shift 7 times to get up to 60.

@@gingerauto bobtailing you can skip gear, some guy with an 18 run them like a 9 speed

We found it in a short school bus in the junkyard. It fit perfect with a few modifications.

Well you need your main wire from the battery. And then if you just jump 12v to the starter Solenoid it will start and run if it has fuel. Once it’s running it doesn’t need any wires because it’s mechanical.

Yes

Probably never would. To much sentimental value.

It’s off an 04 f650

Thanks a lot I’m building a 74 roadstar 1800

Don’t got an answer for ya. Because he was haha

haha?@@gingerauto

@@newsflash7970 this transmission doesn’t really like to come out of gear without the clutch.

Thanks ?

The better 5.9! 💪

@@gingerauto international did know how to make great engines back then

Good to know.
