I want to make sure I'm understanding the RubiTrux. It's a 392 JLRU with a 6 speed manual transmission? I hope that is true! Is the RubiTrux some package from an after market shop? Can you explain a little bit more about the RubiTrux? Thanks!

RubiTrux are on one of the approved AMW conversion installers. You can research this. Yes, they do 392 manual conversions by mating to an appropriate transmission.

Sure man. Can meet at the Quiktrip bridge tomorrow. Let me know what time, I’m mostly available. Head out of town to MA Monday for a week.

I hope it's not the factory JL 6 speed? Any info on which transmission they used?

Wow! Neat upgrade. IMHO, I would want a diesel upgrade, but a 392 sure would get me in trouble. 392 is a young mans ride. Give me more miles per gallon and good low end torque.

Another clarifying question, you didn't get to keep the 6-speed from your original config, right? Sounds good, but can we ask about how much it was for just the engine and transmission? I have to imagine it hurts quite a bit. I may only have half your cylinders, but I still smile :D
