Mike,

I agree...my current 216 is a great engine but years of wear have robbed it of much HP. I drive it as often as I can but would really like a more dependable and drivable truck

One that doesn't have to pull over to let everyone behind it by on the long hills of those Maine country roads.

In for a penny in for a pound. I started this truck with the thought that I could just get it on the road with some repairs... ended up a full of frame restoration. But I wanted to know what I was driving was dependable.

Maybe my expectations of this old technology is just to high?
