Choosing a WVO kit, choosing a WVO truck …

I’ve been looking at a variety of WVO solutions and think that I have decided to go with a kit from Golden Fuel Systems (http://goldenfuelsystems.com/) after reviewing lots of information from various online discussions, the GFS website, and their YouTube videos.  The fact that they are within driving distance (Springfield MO) is an added bonus.

I’ve narrowed my search for my future WVO truck to the following, based on personal preference, various online discussions related to problems and successes with WVO, and comments on each fuel system kit page on the GFS website.  Sounds like I should try to avoid newer generation trucks equipped specifically for ULSD or with the newer emissions features (EGR, etc).  Not to worry though, anything this new should be well outside of my target budget ($10K-14K).

  • Chevy/GM 2500 or 3500 w/ 6.6L DuraMax (2001-)
  • Ford F-250 or F-350 w/ 7.3L PSD (1999-2003)
  • Dodge Ram 2500 or 3500 w/ 5.9L Cummins (2003-)

I’ll be looking for a 4 door cab and 4 wheel drive.  I’m hoping for an older (cheaper) truck with little wear, good interior and good exterior.  A heavy duty front grill might be nice so that future deer only cost me a quick rinse at the car wash.  LOL
