Couldn't imagine selling the old girl but could proabably deal with a auto, anyways guys can you keep a ear open for me... hope to get out to GTG bve nice to see the guys again

Lil dog the tag works great, thanks again!
If the clutch and hydros will work on a 03 6 Spd, im in for that. I might also take the tranny if the price is right. To bad for the swap, but at least you can sure feel the get up and go factor a little better. I have also herd from some other people about NADP dropping a few different things. O well, maybe he has had to many complaints about them or something, But that aint stoppin me from buying one. Aaron, wehn you in calgary next. I should be home thins week. We are having one of those weeks. If your not, then i might just come up to visit grandma and get it from you. Thanks again.

Jason, if you end up getting rid of the 5spd (maybe t-case too?), let me know. Looking at the feasibility of a 4bt swap into my sisters truck (oh so many projects), and that would be one of the missing links.

No falling out....just that Barry has not had good luck with the customers buying the smarty's....so rather than deal with the headache, they no longer stock them....however they will order them....just no more stocking.

When was this?? I know when I had my '02 (about 4 years ago), they had full knowledge of Don's injectors....in fact NADP will get you a set if that is what your set on.....they just deal with DDP because you get the same results for a fraction of the price!!

at this time I am trying to find a 01 with a auto that we can litterly swap everything, I simply do not have the time to source all the little parts, steering columns etc as I will only do it if it is a clean job, and look stock. I wouldn't really even care is the trade truck was stock being the extra money I get in the deal would probably build a decent tranny anyway, hoping maybe this winter to do this. It all came from my wife having to back the boat trailer down the ramp at the lake... seves me right for buying more toys

I tried to get a set of Mach 4's in August and I might as well talked to myself when dealing with NADP. This seemed odd as the were excellent every other time I bought from them. Great bunch of guys there but that day I must have got the new guy as they would onlt push the DDP injectors! Oh well, got them acrfoss the line from Ollee at Power By Poole. 110% customer service there...

Hey Jamie, sounds like Kiel and I might be heading up to Rimbey this coming week to pick up some parts. Could meet up, have some food and swap some cash for tail lights. By the sounds of it, Kiel has Monday and Friday off, so one of those days likely.

For sure, just let me know. I have to be in Sylvan Lake on Monday from 4-6 but any other time is great. My truck must be ugly or something as I'm getting whooped very badly in the TOM!!!

I guess so!! DIESEL ROCKS, have you ran F1's? I've ran both, DDP's are close but still a league below!!! F1's have a way better spray pattern and 1/2 as much smoke. DDP's for 3rd gen's are the ticket but for the 2nd gen's, F1 all the way... Just my .02...
