    What the hell is up with Superlift?!

    Yep, this governement run system is a HUGE pain. I am making the switch to Sky Jacker. The more I deal with them, the more I like them. All I was trying to do was purchase some videos for my son. It was a simple thing and simple things always seem to set me off more.

    I have bought stuff from them before. But do they deal with stuff that big?

    What the hell is up with Superlift?!

    Agreed ^^^ Okay, here is the deal. I have calmed down a bit since I posted this thread. The issue I am having is every damn time I try to order something over here I have to go through all kinds of crap the get it done. If the computers do not lock up then I am on a computer that does not...

    I am in Iraq, like I said in the beginning. The only reason I go back is becuase they have products that no one else has. But, I am to the point where it is no longer worth it.

    What the hell is up with Superlift?!

    I see what you are talking about now. I had to go to another computer for it to work. The computer I was on told me that was forbidden. Even still, it states in big letters that the forum has nothing to do with contacting them. You still have to call.

    I'll see if I can find the page. When I tried to sign up it took me to a page that required a phone call for a code.

    Thanks. I did not mean to come across rude. I am just really agrivated. I have dealt with crap service from them for so long I think I had to vent.

    What the hell is up with Superlift?!

    That would be cool. But it is the principle of the matter. How can they have a forum with no email address? Plus, how can I get on the forum if I have to call and get a code first?

    What the hell is up with Superlift?!

    They have a phone number, but how the hell can I call it. I have bought a lot of stuff from other companies because I could communicate via email. How can they have a forum but no email? Am I missing something?

    What the hell is up with Superlift?!

    This is ridiculous! I should not have to sign up on a freaking forum to ask a simple question. They have a forum but not a regular email address? What the hell is up with that? Then to make my blood boil further, you have to call the ass holes first before you can sign up! I am currently working...

    I think I would have to lengthen the truck a bit for that. What are some options? I know the military engine have automatics behind them. but what came behind them on the civilian market?

    I am not sure if I should go with an automatic or standard. I want something with some low end grunt in front. then some good high way gearing at the end.

    Considering the truck body I am using is a 68 I doubt the EPA will be much of a problem. However, that is a good point. So I will check into it. I do want this truck street leagal.

    Thanks. I have always wanted to biuld something like this. Now I just have to decide on a transmission.

    Thanks. I am assuming the 53 would likely be my best bet.

    Looking for information on a Detroit 318.

    Okay, I think a V-six configuration appears to be my best bet. Especially now that I see how easy it will be to enhance. Now, what are the differences between the 6v-53, 6V-71, and 6V-91? If I understand what I have read so far the 53, 71, and 91 is cubic inches of displacement per cylinder, am...

    Looking for information on a Detroit 318.

    I have already gathered almost everything I need to perform a 12V conversion to my wife's 351 powered F250. I like them; they are good reliable engines. Plus somewhat cheap to mildly build. But, to get real power they are not so cheap and I would shorten the life span considerably with what I...

    Thanks. That is the sort of thing I have to learn to look for. I know nothing of super chargers.

    Looking for information on a Detroit 318.

    Let me say up front that I am some what new to the diesel realm. All the big trucks I have built in the past had big block power plants. Now, that being said; This truck is being built with “big” truck components. Everything is going to be bigger, heavier, and stronger than any components I have...

    I originally planned on using a 7.3 out of a school bus. And I have a 6.9 I plan to put in a 65 F250. But considering the size and weight of the finished build, I want something bigger with a lot more power. :drive

    I don't if I am that good now. :lmao Besides a 3208, are there any other "smaller" V8 eninges I should look at? I do not want something that is going to require every one in the truck to wear hearing protection. :doh:
