6.9L International Diesel rebuild

Hey Y'all: New guy here. My names fishphart. I reside in Missouri and I have a 1987 Ward body on International chassis with 6.9L International diesel
4 speed manual with two speed rear end gives me a total of 8 forward gears. I personally did a total reman on the 6.9L with by-pass oil filters including a spinner II oil centrifuge keeps 20 quarts of Royal Purple clean. . FOUR fuel tanks underneath along with TWO propane tanks for the four burner stove and heater. 16 foot long roof rack with removeable CRANE lifts items up on top quite easily. Tinted windows and Freightliner Air seat for the pilot makes long drives quite comfortable. Its taken me quite a bit of effort (research) to do all this. If you have any questions on rebuilding the 6.9L and circumventing the EVIL glowplug system let me know. I have HOURS of research time and will gladly share the great ideas I've come across over the last couple years. I dont really know how all this blog stuff works so here goes......cheers, fishphart

Re: 6.9L International Diesel rebuild

Just bought a new digital camera. Should have pics up and running shortly. Anyone with some advice on using a Delkin Compact Flashcard reading device to Windows XP would be appreciated. Fishphart = olde phart that likes to fish....
when I'm not out with the Freightliner hauling 20 tons of toothpaste somewhere. cheers, Bob
