No paint - that's powder coat. Area 51 is our excellent local powder coater.
I decided to live w/o the oil capacity - it isn't much and so far the engine has been OK without it. Dan |

Its not as if you will be pulling a six mile grade with a heavily laden trailer. Still have your oil cooler on Mutt?

Nope. Though I could reinstate it if needed. I've watched the oil temp gage at the end of the run and it's generally about 200-205F max so I'm not worried about that (the oil temp falls off to like 190ish as soon as I back off at the end of the mile). In Loring I'll be running 1.5 miles so that might tax it more and my intent is to watch EGT and oil temp and shut down if either get worrisome - I've never run that far under load.

I will! They give out 1 mile speeds as well as 1.5 speeds so I have options. Might even run the Dodge - it's currently getting a new head gasket, freshened head, and slightly bigger injectors. Vroom-Vroom!
