Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Nice 2001

[CAROLINA CUMMINS]

Brought 'er home yesterday morning. I will try to get pics sometime this weekend.





LUnderwood - how do ya know where I'm gettin it



MRector - I'm good thanks, how are you. Still have the 98, but It aint mine. My sister is the sole pilot of that rig. It will have a Rips 4" straight pipe before the weekend is out (X-mas present) Oo.



Ol Ratlr - Thanks, wished I could have come Sat, but had to work



DNewell - Just search for "53 block" you'll find lotsa interesting reading. But to answer your question, the 53 block has had problems with the block cracking and leaking coolant, some of these other guys can tell you better exactly where it cracks. To tell which block you have, crawl under the truck and look directly below the inj. pump/PS/vac pumps and there will be numbers cast in the side of the block above the oil pan. Hope this helps.

Not definite on any plans yet, but it's gotta have more air, and definitely more fuel :-laf :-laf

Sorry for it being dirty??? That thing looks spotless compared to mine great looking truck. Especially for 17k. I'm going to check the block the next time I can get my truck in the garage. I'm not too concerned, but it's always good advice. Again, congrats on the truck.
