New Guy Needs Help

[firelite]

Hey guys, I am a new member here. I am building a model of a 1967-69 DM-600, it has a 673 motor in it. I was wondering if anyone had any pictures that would help me with the lines coming into the fuel pump and also, there is a reservoir or a filter at the front passenger side of the cylinder head, what is this, I don't believe it is P/s related....any help would be appreciated. Also, I am planning to build this with a lugger body on it, wht kind of hydraulic setup would be good for this? PTO driven pump off of the tranny, or do I need a front mounted pump like a mixer. Thanks again for the help. Will try to post some pics as soon as I get a chance.

No pics but would guess the filter you mentioned is a fuel filter.

And Welcome!!!!

The old cartridge type secondary fuel filter was mounted in that location, but by the time the DM was introduced, Mack was using the spin on primary & secondary fuel filters mounted way down next to the inside of the right frame rail next to the engine.

In the 67 - 69 time frame the DM's did use a belt drive P.S. pump with an integral reservoir mounted at the upper right front. The reservoir had a lid retained by a wing nut on top, you had to remove the lid to check or add P.S. oil.

I did some more scrounging on the net, and the piece I was confused about was supposed to be a fuel filter, I am probably going to delete that and use a frame mounted spin on filter as you suggested to update things a bit. The problem I am encountering is finding decent photos of an engine in a truck so I can figure out where to plumb the fuel lines to. I have the 6 injector lines, but thats a bout it. The pictures I found the lines from the tank etc have been cut off. Any help there would be great.
