Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Ugh, only did 3 years in Florida but remember those hurricane evacs. Amazing how many people waited until inside the 24-hour point to bug out then got all pissed off about ParkingLot-95 and the fact they couldn't locate a motel or budget hotel with vacancies ...

Having followed a couple of conversions of both the deuce and a half and the five ton version, I'd probably go with deuce and a half. Some states require you to get a CDL to drive the 5 ton and the deuce can be found with a multi-fuel diesel that expands your fuel options. Check the Steel Soldiers forum for more information than you can handle on these vehicles.

Your Yukon sounds like it'll be awesome. Cummins power baby!
thanks im going to be posting a build thread on here once me and zteknik start tearing into it the plan is to do a WVO set up in it once the swap is done and running right my friend is currently using one pint of diesel every 400mi or so which would mean that i could daily my truck which i would love.... right now it gets 7mpg on a good day because it has a 454 swap in it that was done way back when gas was under 2$ a gallon
If my 98 disappears I know where it went.
I see you running, tell me what your running from
Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.
cofi, does a 12v p-pump do well on WVO? I thought about a 4bt or merc build on WVO, but haven't been able to find a good donor.
"I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day."
yea they eat EVERYTHING(wvo,used motor oil etc) only thing that seems to be filters getting clogged prematurely.....but since my friend got a centrifuge set up(he used to have a coffee filter setup) i dont think he has changed a filter......
the problem is finding a cummins cheap out here they get stupid high premiums put on them some guy in kansas is trying to get 3k for a 94 dodge with 350k miles and no title i got a guy local with a 92(ve pump) but again he is asking too much
if you want a car you may want to look into the vw diesels(pre 99) there way more fun then the mercs gonna be
edit: im using a 6bt for my yukon
