If you do the clutch to take the power, know the limitations of your drive train and with the triplex and the brownie you have enough gear choices not to lug it. You're not pulling anywhere close the weights that would stress the power package and you're not racing it and you remember it's limitations I think you'll be fine. Paul

yes.

Bet the Village of LeRoy would let you host the steam show there.

SERIAL #361

We were in Batavia visiting and were told about the shovel, that photo is a post card type thing we got in LeRoy when we stopped at the Jell-O Museum and the Transportation Exhibit in the basement.

Great info! Paul

I wouldn't trust the boilers but I would trust the cylinders running on compressed air.

Same on the FOMOCO and GM's

Not hard at all. The Throttle body unit is a Holley Pro-jection unit and was also sold aftermarket . Gaskets, injectors and sensors are still available from Holley. My '88 is the first year of TBI aside from a 26 year old TPS wearing out and a lazy fuel pump relay no problems at all.

AC Delco, NAPA, Bosch and Wix are made the same as the Motocraft and Pureolator. FRAM and Some off brands are the cheaply made ones. Ford and Dodge tells you right off the bat if you use Fram you void our warrenty.

Those Dodges seemed to be more popular on the East Coast. Ton of them on L.I and around me in Virginia.

Offer them $3000 in $20 dollar bills and drive it home. Almost every panel and mechanical part is available new or used for them. Paul

Nice looking and not the normal rust.

4 sets of tracks all driven through geared shafts the front spread between tracks is 20 + feet The mining company widened it from the original design for lifting Limestone blocks. It has chain steering, a crew of eight. 18 tall x 10 wide x 45 long plus about 30 for the boom and bucket. It weights in at 225,750 pounds. 3 steam engines in it. Also needed a crew of 16 to lay the metal track runners to prevent it's getting stuck. I took photos of the drives and the inside before I got chased off it. Still had wood and coal in the bunkers and some water left in the sight glass for the tanks. They moved it from the Lime Stone quarry across the street, parked in the field, put the fires out and walked away.

Worked in a quarry near Le Roy N.Y. from 1907 until 1949 and driven to this spot and parked 66 years ago . Marion model 91 Steam Shovel.

Here is a Fram Cartridge filter out of the can. 2nd pic is 3 filters for a small block chevy Motocraft, Pureolator and Fram. Fram is owned by the RANK Group and the quality of the product has gone down. Metal replaced by cardboard and held together with RTV.

Chicken pose! couldn't resist!!

You also don't have lawyers who will sue for millions of dollars over the pain of removing a band aid. Oh the pain from the glue.....

I only have one B but this is the number from my truck folder. DONALDSON P779062

Welcome to the group! There plenty of knowledge here. Me I'm still have old school trucks with the stick and rock tool kits. Paul

I use Baldwin and Donaldson with out problems. NAPA in a pinch with no problems either .

If it laid with old oil for a long, long time, the acids and moisture in the oil will erode the bearing faces too.

At least 10 or more years ago according to my MACK parts guru. One thing to also remember the current filters have a much better filtering medium than the older ones. I would never use a FRAM FIlter ever. To many problems with their internals, they are not the quality they were even a few years ago.

He's busy lobbying to stop it.

Swift execution my ass! Let them give back to society! Make them "volunteers" for live medical experiments. At least we'll get a return on the money spent for the trial. The Charleston shooting should have been an act of terrorism by an enemy combatant same as the Fort Hood shootings.
