Re: Need Some Opinions: Project issues and piles of trucks...
These are the best deals I have found. Im going with a new one because i dont want to mess with the used and risk it failing.
From my repair manual it also look like we will need a gasket as well as some o-rings to install a new one.

I am pretty sure he was just joking.
Relax man. I didn't look at all your pictures, I just initally saw Typhoon hit in the front. I didn't see the buckled roof. I have seen quite a few Typhoon that are wrecked in the front, that just either need frame striaghtening or a frame swap. I know atleast half dozen on this forum that have done so. Smaug the other guy in this thread who recommend keeping it, bought a front end damaged 'totalled' Typhoon that he repaired.

**TOTALLED meaning not repairable... Buckled and crumpled frame, crumpled and mushed cab that needed prybars to even get the doors open again...**
Can you make it clearer for us.
Some people kept telling me to fix the truck in a variety of threads. i needed to make it clear that it cant be fixed as far as i know. If it can, its outta my world.

Re: Need Some Opinions: Project issues and piles of trucks...
lol yeah I know, I figured that would get the point across that I wasnt going to fix it. I have had 5-10 people here tell me to save the Ty! hehe
Just clairifying.
Actually Im sure it could be fix by someone. A new frame a straightening out the cab, maybe a new roof or so. But its out of my realm of capabilities. I dont even know a body man, have room in my little garage or have the moneyto resore a vehicle as badly damaged as this. But for a bodyman, Im sure they could resurect it. Id love to sell it whole, but I surely want a Typhoon interior in my truck as well. hehe

Re: Need Some Opinions: Project issues and piles of trucks...
Wow nice. Comes with everything needed to do the whole swap.
4.3 CPI Service Kit $300
Part# CPI-200
LTS introduces the General Motors 4.3L service kit. “Buy it all at once” This kit is just what you need for the 1991-95 4.3L “W” engines when you have diagnosed them as needing a new CPI unit. It includes an LTS reconditioned CPI unit with upgraded regulator so you don’t have any more worries about a leaking fuel regulator, the fuel supply & return lines which will put your mind at ease when removing those brittle plastic lines from the old unit, an upper plenum gasket and an EGR screen-type gasket to take care of the common problem of carbon getting stuck in the EGR valve. This is a 10% savings over purchasing these parts separately. Keep in mind, there is a $50.00 core charge for the CPI unit.

Yeah I was just messing around with him. You would have to read the earlier posts to really understand. Having said that. If it was up to me I would still go with Opinion B for the following reason.
The look on someone face after they got smoked by a 4 door Jimmy would be Priceless.

Re: Need Some Opinions: Project issues and piles of trucks...
Well, I changed the Typhoon wheels to the Jimmy tonight and learned that it looks like a 4x4 now... ick
So now I need to swap the ty rear suspension and I guess get lowering keys for the front or just use the Tys front suspension.

You can just swap the leafs and the torsion bar keys from the Ty.... the front suspension is the same otherwise
