Re: Website Upgrade complete

I recently purchased and installed the exhaust system upgrade for my M37. What a wonderful product, it fits like a glove, sounds great and the motor seems to have noticeably more power dealing with all the hills around here.
Thank you M series rebuild!

Re: NH truck and parts chassis with good engine for sale

I've seen it on E bay and NH Craigslist, would love to grab it but have too much going on right now. That truck is about 20 minutes from my work, if I can lend a hand, let me know.

Re: Tire question

Thanks for the replies, the tubes in my 5 year old NDT's have 7.50 x 16 tubes that say "Bias ply only" on them, that's why I asked.

Tire question

Hi All,
I recently bought a set of Michelin 9x16 XL's for my truck to replace the Firestone 9x16 NDT's. Do I need to find tubes and flaps specifically for radial tires? If so would anyone have a source? Thanks in advance for any information.

Re: Restomod m37 video

Hi Justin, Grinding .060 off the head is easy enough, you also suggest cutting in a second exhaust outlet on the exhaust manifold? Would that make noticeable difference? Does the stock manifold create enough restriction to rob power? I have a steel manifold that I built when i first got the truck, M...

Re: Restomod m37 video

Hi Justin, Great video, thanks for taking the time and effort to make it. I remember checking out your truck and chatting with you at the Weare, NH rally a couple of summers ago, that thing is really cool.

Re: coils issues

A couple years ago I had a problem with the coil feed wire arcing out inside the distributor housing. Due to the heat the insulation became dry and cracked. after replacing the feed wire the problem went away.

Re: How do you use your M37?

I use mine as a fire wood box, it holds a lot of wood and fits nicely in my garage which is just a few steps from the wood stove. Every week or two it gets to take a short ride out to the wood pile.
