out of this thing before it suddenly started making a lot
of uncurable valve train noise. I'ts making gray pasty
oil, so probably a lifter bore about ready to fail. The
FK-8 was just too much for that old worn out case. It did
run real well though. A good amount of torque down low
and really came on around 3,000 and pulled to the moon!
Ran cool as hell, even in the Single Cab with a full
load. Oil never got over 190 and head temps stayed around
250-260, cruising at 70mph down the highway. http://community.webshots.com/user/widefive |
