Nope, glass doors (sealed well) in both. Outside combustion air pipe, adjustable.

And, I’d get a different wife. One without nose problem. [emoji2960]

Not sure if the turbo is stock or not.
It’s a Garret, but looks different than the one on old greenie. Might just be difference in model years..

Mid 1999 they made a change with turbo and injector size. Mine is late 99 with the ZF6, 2wd, extended cab and sterling 10.5 rear end. Put new clutches in rear end about a year ago now and can't believe the difference it made. Pulled trailers of cattle and hay through mud I knew I shouldn't. Only had to use the tractor a couple times since then. Before if it rained I would have to pull it out of the yard to higher ground because of wheel slip. I've considered a TS 6 position for mine, just haven't decided. I should have loaded up my old square body and traded it to @Steve for the 4wd he had last year. lol

Whatcha got? The house we just bought has a fireplace but nothing great, it’s a place to build a fire and let most of the heat go right up the chimney. I’d like a stove but the girls in my life nixed that idea so we met in the middle. I’d like to generate some useable heat and enjoy a fire the two days a week I’m home lol.

We've got a Buck Model 91. When the catalyst brick fires up, it puts out a lot of heat. We used it exclusively for about 5 years then had to get a new HVAC unit so we are using it to heat now. The cost of heating between it and our old 1963 model that it replaced was astounding.
If you have a masonry or clay chimney, it would be best to have a liner in it. A source of combustion air from outside will help reduce cool drafts. A product called Anti-Creo-Soot will either reduce or eliminate cleaning the chimney.

Oh yeah.
Maneuvering a 600 lb plus item into and through the house and placing it into the fireplace box isn't for the faint of heart.

Thanks for the info. That’s one I have been looking at. I bet it’s a chore to get it done!

Good morning!

I just got word that the annual woodcut that supports missionaries will be Southwest of Ava on March 7th this year.
I will post it on here again when the time starts getting closer.

I hope everyone has a blessed day!

Evening All! Been out while taking a cram course on base (worth 5 credit hours for 8 days of actual course), and just found out that I'm gong back to nights for a year and a half, after I return from surgical convalescent leave... On a good note, after a few false starts, the 6.0 is running GREAT and driving very well. @Workshop I'm glad that there wasn't any additional damage, and that you're on the mend!!! @sawnami You better get a handle on your blood pressure before you end up in Steve's boots!

@Hedgerow you do officially suck for that 7.3/ZF6. I miss mine dearly, just not the money pit of the rest of the truck. The only way I get out of this 6.0 is when I find a Cherry 7.3, or 5.9 Dodge, OR another way around recent Tuning law changes, and then a 6.7 one way or another.

Looks like Dad and I are going to go buck and slit some wood Friday for an elderly friend. He has a well insulated house, and fully functional HVAC, but his late-stage Dimentia Wife (who I love dearly) loves the fire and he's recovering from a hernia. I figure we'll knock out about a cord and call it good, as his VC Defiant stove is pretty miserly on consumption. Take care and I'll start a GTG thread soon. Y'all may have to pack a few firearms too' and make it a multi-faceted thing. Once I get past PT, I am going to have to come help you guys with a charity cut elsewhere, to pay my dues.

Good night and How 'Bout Them Chiefs???
