    the part you cant see, is the flat stock that is drilled to match up with the alternator bracket.. I think its 1/2'' thick.. its stout.. I'm heading back out there, if I rotate it I will take pictures of it, and post them.

    I guess I should have posted these pic's, Keith.. It's an ENDT 673, for a '61-ish B-Model.. The stand was made by one of his employee's.. its a strong stand but I have to use my engine crane to rotate it.. and I will have to take it off the stand and put it on blocks so I can put the flywheel housing on it, cant put the pan on without the front and rear covers.. I'm just glad it's not in the truck.. just sayin'.. Jojo

    to me,, an RB is an RD on steroids,, heavier frame, if I remember right, similar to the RW, I have only worked on/ driven a couple of them..

    Keith, This is the stand i'm using.. It is perfect.. Unfortunately it belongs to the man, who's engine is on it.. This picture is from today.. I hope to be able to buy this stand or one just like it.. It's an oldie, but it's a Damn Goody !!

    Many good points about protecting the crank shaft.. I had the good fortune of having the engine on a stand, so the crank was out when I did my work.

    As far as pulling the dry liners out of the 673.. I ran beads of weld inside the liners, and when they cooled, i was able to pull them with my liner puller..

    Since you have these pictures, you may be able to sell it with full disclosure. Someone out there has the head gaskets and other parts to fix it, or use yours for parts to fix theirs.. just sayin'

    I think Harbor Freight has a nut setting tool kit.. They are fairly easy to install.

    Buddy,,, it's moving too fast... engine designs are changing frequently and with more complicated ideas.. I have been away from the dealership for 5 years and I feel like I know absolutely nothing about Diesel engines.. I'm just glad I can come here and chat about the older ones and learn, even if it's by my mistaken postings.. I say 'To Hell 'with Ceramic parts.. yeah I know that ceramic rollers on OHC diesels has been around a long time, but I dont care.. I'm an in-line 6 pushrod guy.. Jojo
  23. Joey Mack
    I was just about to ask the same thing..
  24. Joey Mack
    there is a machine shop in Charlotte that said they could ceramic coat the old pistons for re-use.. we opted out, but I would love to see them installed and see it run, for a couple years..
  25. Joey Mack
    just curious, do you not have 4 or is it 8,,, larger diameter studs at the ends of the heads?
