A friend looking for an exhaust manifold for my 8V71 @ a DD dealership Seattle/Tacoma area, mentioned that he (the dealer) had a rebuilt ? 6 cyl pancake engine....CHEAP...CHEAP.. If interested email me and I will find the address/phone #.

I put this up on the board because this might be hard to find for some one that needs one

Nobody wants to ship pancake mills because they are soooss flat there is no height to them and the shippers can't charge by the cubic foot.

I do remember years ago a pleasure yacht that had twin turboed pancake Detroits. It was soosss cool seeing how flat they were. 400hp each.

Yeah Ron, I can understand the problems and $expense$ of swapping mills in a Crown. Going to 400hp seeems (hugh?) to be easy as they...

...made lots of Big Cam Cummin's 400's. Only a few 475's were made, thus the higher expense of the used parts, such as pistons...

....(lower compression), the injectors, (bigger) camshaft, pump, balancer, a replacement single turbo, exhaust manifold, an adaptable...

...intercooler, opened intake, exhaust, spark arrestor, blah, blah, blah. Are we having fun yet? All it takes is $$$ and a lack of common sense.

Anyways....servicable used parts remain cheap...new parts are very expensive. Can i have my wine now?? CROWNS FOREVER!! :-) :-) :-)
