Thanks. If I find that I need one, I'll call them and Advance Adapters.

The torque tops out at 3300rpm and the horse power at 4500rpm.

Thanks. Now that you mention it, I think I remember that also. I'll have to take a look at their website.

I put one in my truck using the stock frame mounts.
I'll try to remember to take the camera tomorrow when go to the workshop.

That's really great to hear. Thank you very much, I appreciate that. What trans and transfer case did you go with?

I'd like to meet up with you guys some time. I've been using my M715 as a daily driver, except when there's salt on the ground, since I got it two years ago.

I looked it up, they called it project j2008. All of the articles are still on the website. 68' j2000 with a factory fuel injection 4.0 and looks like an nv4500.
