Looks like it could be 6H9 Greyish Olive to me too. https://forum.ih8mud.com/40-55-series-tech/265725-green-1981-fj40.html ...via IH8MUD app

2F head from a '84 60, casting no. 61040. Rocker arm assembly included: $100. Located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I will ship at your cost, but it is HEAVY (translation: expensive!) Brian

What sort of pricing are you looking at? I need to feed both a 16 pulse electronic speedo and the 2-pulse input on a TBI ECM. Haven't purchased it yet but planning on using the Classic Instruments 16 pulse VSS (part number SN16m, which has 22mm x 1.5 threads). Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

The speedo was a special order item; the stock unit has a 200 mph readout that would be pretty silly on a cruiser! Classic also offers a sender that will fit the Toyota t-case output. Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

I haven't installed it yet (or even painted the panel) but this is what's going in my 40. Trail Candy panel and Classic Instruments gauges. Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

FWIW check out gearhead-efi.com for tbi info. Good group of guys with a lot of knowledge. Thirdgen.org has a tbi forum also, but they can be pretty snarky with basic questions. Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

What's the cost on the JTR unit? I looked on their website and couldn't find it. Using a GM style 40ppr VSS would make things easier for me on a couple of counts, but I'm cheap and there are work arounds. Are there any homebrew alternatives for split cases? I seems like the biggest...

I just did this as I get ready for a disc brake swap. I used a brush and didn't bother masking; I just didn't paint any surface that wasn't originally painted. Spray painting seems like more trouble than it's worth. Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

So 2 lbs will do both knuckles?

Do you have the cowl vent drain tubes that pass through the firewall? I'm also looking for the short piece of duct that connects the blower to the heater. Brian

Does the '71 or '73 have the cowl vent drain tubes and/or the blower duct that feeds the heater? Sent from my iPad using IH8MUD

I'm not sure I understand this; what problems does centering the engine present? Also, do the Firestein mounts allow any flexibility in engine placement relative to the frame centerline? Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

Yep, that's a '70. Unfortunately I can't help you with the brake parts. Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

The switch from '69 to '70 was mid-month 10/69. FWIW my 40 was built 10/69 and is titled as a 1970 model although I consider it a '69 since it has bullet style parking lights on the bib and does not have side marker lights. Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

They're "better" in the sense that they're mounted on the axle which is important when a driveshaft parking brake isn't an option ( as with a split case). Also, the rear drums on 60 (and late 40) axles are self adjusting which is definately better. Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD

Did you have to cut your fenders?

What do you suggest for those of us who drink wine out of a bottle that has a screw cap?

You may be overestimating how much width you will gain. I have a rear axle from '83 60 that I'm planning to install on my 40 (for the rear parking brake so I can use a split-case) and it measures spot on 57" wide (WMS to WMS). I haven't measured my current 40 axle, but I've read that they're...
