V-8 S10 Truck -- RUNS ON WOOD ! 1 cord
= 5200 miles!!
1985
S10 with 350CI engine, 700R4 transmission, Wayne Keith Gasifier.
This
truck has been built as the next step forward in woodgas performance. Light
overall weight and a high flow woodgas system were a priority during the build.
This is the first woodgas truck to be specifically designed for use with a
supercharged engine.
If
performance & mileage is what you are looking for, this is the truck for
you!!
Chassis from cab back has been replaced
with a custom tube chassis specifically designed to accept a Wayne Keith
gasifier. All the build pictures are under New WK Gasser project thread in the
premium section of Drive on Wood.
CHASSIS
- features 4 link suspension w/ 3/4 x 3/4 rod ends, adjustable height panhard bar,
QA1 double adjustable suspension shocks & adjustable coil over springs.
Lower shock mounts are fully adjustable for any desired ride height. 4 wheel
alignment is very easy as each 4 link bar is equipped with right & left
hand rod ends for length adjustment. . The panhard bar is also equipped with
right & left rod ends for easy adjustment. Machined tube holes thru cross
members for exhaust.
GASIFIER
- has been built to exact specs as shown on Drive on Wood hand book & video
with all new materials. The fire tube is the larger of the two designs -- same
dimensions as the gasifier on Wayne Keith's V10 Dodge. Extreme design measures
taken to sink the gasifier low enough in the chassis to be below the S10 roof.
The chassis has also been designed to mount the gasifier far enough to the
center of the truck as not to protrude past the door. Full weight of gasifier
sits on platform & held in position by a bolt on strap with machined mounts
welded to chassis (outer housing is not pierced anywhere for mounting)
HOPPER
-- features 16 external, removable cooler tubes, 16 hold down springs and
flanged & bolted top cover mount (absolutely no distortion in the top
cover)
GRATE
-- 1/4 in laser cut stainless steel with star shaped relief holes. We installed
one of these grates in Chris Saenz's Dakota last year --- he reports that it
works very well.
CLEANOUT
DOOR -- Outside mounted for ease of maintenance -- total access to the grate,
machined hinges & latch are all adjustable to insure a perfect air tight
seal.
HEAT
EXCHANGER -- 8 inch bolted flange intake tube with close bolt pattern (to
insure no leak connection) 5 inch flanged exit tube. Machined inlet bung for
intake blowers.
COOLER
-- 4 pass, 5 inch flanged intake tube -- 5 inch flanged exit tube. 65 feet of
2.00 x .070 aluminized tubing, laser cut headers, removable end tanks, machined
Delrin mounts. This unit is a high flow condensed version of the standard
cooling rack. The cooler has been specifically designed for high flow and easy
maintenance.
CONDENSATE
TANK -- 5 inch flanged intake, 4 inch flanged exit tube. Machined, 3 bolt
mounting system. This tank also serves as lower mounting for the hay filter.
Easy removal & installation for maintenance
HAY
FILTER -- 4 inch flanged inlet, 4 inch flanged outlet. The weight of the filter
housing sits on the bottom flange and on machined mounts welded to the chassis
& tubular cross bracing to the heat exchanger & cooler tank.
MONORATOR
TANK -- 2 bolt tab mounted to the chassis. Easily removed, bottom & side
drain.
7
BLOWERS -- 2 intake blowers vertically mounted. 1 reverse, 4 suction blowers
vertically mounted to the hay filter. Outer aluminum cover for wiring is easily
removed for maintenance. Vertically mounted blowers will not allow condensate
pooling inside blower housings. Drive on Wood builders are trending towards
this method.
TRANSMISSION
COOLER -- Mounted under rear chassis. Fittings on the transmission & cooler
have been converted to JIC #6 and connected with Parker hydraulic hose with
Parker push lock swivel ends.
WOODGAS
INDUCTION SYSTEM -- Custom built gasoline, woodgas intake manifold. Throttle
bodies have been machined for woodgas & air intake. All tubing in engine
compartment & under truck is 3 1/2 inch stainless steel.
MACK
REAR END -- 680/1ratio, complete for use as a chunker. Note flanged pinion yoke
--- makes for very easy mounting of sprocket, pulley or shaft.
LOTS
OF FUEL -- thousands of pounds of chunked, bagged, dry wood. Hundreds of extra
bags.
TOOLING
& EXTRA PARTS -- All extra construction materials & tooling - jigs
related to this project go with the sale of the truck.
OPTIONS
-- This gasifier and cooler are also designed to operate a stationary generator
or power plant.
Rear
half of chassis has been designed to adapt to any small truck such as a Dakota,
Ranger, S10 etc.
The
truck is 90% complete. --- new, has never been fired --- high quality build.
Chris
Saenz @ Drive on Wood has inspected this truck & can verify the quality of
this build.

Living in an apartment complex has its benefits, but for shade-tree mechanics who like/need to work on their own cars, it definitely has a number of disadvantages. Relatively simple tasks such as brake jobs and oil changes are difficult when you don't have dedicated driveway space, to say nothing of more in-depth repairs... like pulling an engine, for example.
For these types of challenges, a little ingenuity and plenty of muscle are needed to get the job done. Scroll down to watch these four men snatch the V8 out of a Chevrolet K1500 using nothing but a chain, landscape timber and good ol' fashioned brute strength. Good work, gentlemen.

We recently drove the brand-new 2014 Chevrolet Silverado and found it to be vastly improved compared to the outgoing model. And now that The General's pickup trucks have been squared away, it's time to focus our attention onto their passenger-friendly companions, the Chevrolet Tahoe and GMC Yukon (above).
Our spy photographers have passed along a huge smattering of photos (and a video), showing the new SUVs out testing. Both the short- and long-wheelbase models were spied, and while the overall shape of the vehicles hasn't changed all that much, we expect the updates to be substantial. In addition to new powertrain options, like GM's new small-block V8, we expect the interiors of both SUVs to get massive makeovers, providing better materials throughout their cabins and quieter, more refined environments. We even hear that some trick new suspension developments may be in store for upper-end models.
Visually, these spy shots allow us to see a couple of new details on the SUVs' front and rear fascias, including LED running lamps on the Yukon and some interesting LED taillamp treatments. Of course, the obvious third party missing from this set of photos is the Cadillac Escalade, but as we reported earlier, GM is working to further differentiate the 'Slade from the rest of the fullsize SUV lineup, and is working to make the new model "much less ostentatious."

It's been a little over a year and a half since General Motors first confirmed plans to offer a diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze here in the United States, and we've now learned that the oil-burning compact will debut under the lights of the Chicago Auto Show in February. According to GM Authority, the Cruze Eco-D will be introduced as part of the entire 2014 model year Cruze range, set to go on sale in the second quarter of this year.
Earlier reports have indicated that the diesel Cruze will be able to achieve fuel economy numbers in the range of 50 miles per gallon. For comparison, the similarly sized Volkswagen Jetta TDI is rated at 30/42 mpg city/highway, but as we found out in our long-term test of the 2011 model, hitting 50 mpg was a piece of cake.
Official specifications will be released at the time of the 2014 Cruze's unveiling, though reports have stated that the sedan will be powered by a reworked version of the 2.0-liter turbo-diesel inline-four found in the Holden Cruze CDX overseas. In that application, the four-pot oil-burner produces 160 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque - increases of 20 hp and 29 lb-ft over the 2.0-liter engine used in VW's Jetta TDI.
