theakerstwo Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 I would like to know if a E7 manual pump will work in place of a pump on a E6 not worrying about the calibration. What i am thinking about is the bolts that go thru the hub for the front gear. Is that the same. I have not being in the front of a E7 that i can still remenber. I wander if it is metric thread. glenn Quote glenn akers Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/10004-question-for-fjh/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

theakerstwo Posted July 11, 2009 Author Share Posted July 11, 2009 I will get the E7 and then i will have bothe here when i pull the E6 down. I hope it will change out because i will use it till i get the E6 built and want miss any work with it. Both have the pto pad on front. I would like to build the E7 engine for mine but mine only has about 15000 miles on it now.The extra torque would be neat. thanks Quote glenn akers Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/10004-question-for-fjh/#findComment-37957 Share on other sites More sharing options...
