Go to your "Edit Profile" and upload the pix in your profile. That will place the pix in the LH margin. I believe the pix must be 151 X 151...no more or it won't load. JR |

Alright!! Thanks guys! The rear end pic looks good for now. I can change it any time now. 1957 MCI Courier 96, built in Winnipeg for Greyhound Canada. Then aquired by Brewster Transport in Banff some time in the 60's. They put the sky-views in the roof for sight-seeing in the Rockies. I was driving it then, Sunshine ski hill in winter, Banff, L. Louise, Jasper in summer in the early seventies. Sold in '77 to Rick Mundy who did the first conversion. I got it a couple years ago. Mechanically very good. 4-71 Detroit, 5 speed Spicer, all original, great shape. I renovated inside completely last winter in a 1950's style to match the exterior. Draws lots of attention where-ever we go. Lots of fun for me. Brings back lots of memories... Looking into a turbo for it as this winter project. JC |

nice looking bus, if you install turbo,you are going to have to change pistons first,I 'think' 871 turbo pistons would work |

well, some people have told me that Bob, and Da Book shows a different turbo piston. However, 3 separate DD dealers have told me that adding a turbo with existing "natural" piston is alright. Also, one says that it would make it hard to start at altitude (3000'). I have the 4 valve head with the hard valve seat inserts. They recommend upgrading to the better blower seals that will withstand the extra pressure better. They also tell me that my rad should be able to dissipate the extra heat, (some of it will go out the exhaust anyway). I am currently looking for a turbo and 4" adaptors and elbows to make it fit to the side of the motor, because I don't have room above, and it would be nice not to have to raise the dog house. That would take away from the air tunnel going down into the rad. Anybody with any experience doing this, let me know. Thanks. JC |
