One on the right is familiar.

You know what becomes a problem with this Justin, when trying to use one of those head gasket leak indicators, they're supposed to be raised enough where no coolant touches the indicator as the thing...

You have a tranny cooler attached to this radiator?
I'm wondering if they configured it the same way when they changed the radiator design in 2000.

Did all R/T's come thru with their stupid radiator cap within the upper radiator hose?
I'd like to get rid of this and get parts (including a new radiator) from any year R/T that perhaps they did...

Nice color for that vehicle BK.

Thanks for the tip Thomas.

Oh boy 9t9, you now have made my eyes match the weep on the engine.

You could be right about that BK.
Like the idiot I am, I didn't even consider the pool coming from the fp. Instead, I kept looking above it because it was wet up there which could have been the...

As you say, it's all relative. In 1985, you could buy a Ford pick up truck for $8800. Now they cost twice what my house cost me in 1978.
The truth of the matter is we all "associate" with what the...

I do not. I loosened a motor mount because I couldn't see where it was coming from. I jacked the engine up a bit and I saw the wetness behind the mount. I couldn't make out a definitive crack but...

Chris, I would need to use this truck as a go anywhere-do anything conveyance. You know, like a truck so going to the lumber yard, getting some pavers or decorative bushes, picking up the grand kids...

EQ heads. Standard injectors (24lbs?). Some think they're 19 but Flyin Ryan seems to believe they were all 24's coming from the factory...so I dunno for sure.

So I have made the unfortunate discovery that my block with only 42,000 miles on it is cracked. It is due to my own negligence as i forgot to tighten my radiator cap when adding additional anti...

If I had to have a hemi that's as fast as these trucks would hold w/o a whole bunch of other chassis work, I'd probably opt for the 5.7. Do cam, heads, ported intake.
If there is a whipple type s/c...

None of this looks easy especially if there is metal work tone done. Fewer than 1% of us have that diy capability so that would have to be farmed out..

I suppose if one has patience and a...

Oh boy. Progressions...2 stage...solenoid control.. just put me in an Egyptian pyramid and i have as much chance as understanding hieroglyphs as i do this nitrous crap.

You have to remember, I'm...

My main point for the progression was one of a softer hit on the engine. That's just what I heard. Don't have anything to back that up.

In looking at the leaves of more serious Dakotas, I notice...

niebs, I'm sorry to be a dumbass about this stuff but I'm not understanding what the more expensive controller does over the cheaper one.

Yeah Pack you have a serious engine there. You need something that flows.

Just a case in point, when tested, the M1 2 brl was just 10 cfm's behind the 4 brl manifold and when ported, flowed over...

You mean one of these? https://www.jegs.com/i/Nitrous+Express/744/16006/10002/-1?gclid=Cj0KCQiAtqL-BRC0ARIsAF4K3WFQJttJ64tgxcGYB6bTyuWC9Ci4-d0V4CJjHAkURh052uZuRBu7H6waAkqkEALw_wcB

Syn you ever calculate your timing set back or did you just take out the prescribed 2 per 50 shot for a total of 6 for the 150 boost.

Whatever comes with R/T's. 3.90 something. With the 26" tires, it calculates to 4.20 something.

Thanks BK but right now I'm too ignorant of any of this shit to say I need a 4000 stall. I need to play around with present converter as I don't know what it will flash to if I brake at 2200-2400 or...

With these answers, I figure a window switch at 3500-4000 is prolly safest bet with perhaps a progression no?
Now correct me if I'm wrong cuz I've never dealt with automatics racing wise, but my...

Those of you who used nitrous, when did you have your activation happen? Out of the hole (would you need a 3500-4000 rpm launch to be on the safe side?) or did you use a window, progression or...
