Oh.... just to explain.... two trucks we've been talking about... the one I want mod is the 01 Dodge Cummins 1 ton, My old 3/4 its replacing (at least in the summer months yet), is a 94 Gas v8 Auto 8800 lb 3/4. If I do continue to run it next winter...it could likely stand a tune (although she runs just fine)... 147k on the last tune (plugs, rotor cap wires) and FI clean up. I'd swear Chryslers spark box loves wide gaped plugs. But truthfully I'm leery of trying to change them out now... I have one in the 86 model with 200k on it but I cant get it out and now won't run on it... any more torque and it will either twist off or pull the alum threads out of the head. But its a woods hauler now so it doesn't matter. The 94 isn't quite there yet. But if I strip the plug threads I'd have to pull the heads... so I've left it alone.

The salt is still here, so I'm still commuting with the old 3/4. 1 ton is still in the shed for a few weeks yet while the rains clean the roads.
