and some sane ones....we all have them..but usually there isnt enoughf time or monetyto try....ive had no less than 5 ideas i didnt act on and in less than a year someone else is makeing money on one of my ideas......so i decided to give SOME of them away...and possably open myself to public ridicule...but if it's good enoughf for my friend gregrob..then it's good enoughf for me.....ok here we go....#1 a perpeller attached to the driveline down by the diff, may help push the truck...heck they push-pull airplanes why not a truck....#2 how about getting an intake made, that would seperate the compressor side of the turbo..from the return from the cac...there is terrable heat soak there..then wrap the return from the cac with insolation to keep heat soak from the pipes....ok.ok the intake is already hot i know...but nor nearly as hot as the turbo....bet this would drop intake air bout 100 deg.....#3 this one is a dusey and brakes my heart do give it away....but the right guy could do this.....bromean is a refregerent that moves by heat you dont halfto pump it....so you wear soft copper around your exhaust many times ..there is your heat sorce...then to a dryer then wrap arount the cac return about 40 times and insolate it,that would serve as an evaporator then go to a condenser...weld all the joints and fill it.....and walla a super cold intake with no parasitic load on truck.....FREE COOLING...YA..ok enoughf ...except to say...i have more.....david.......

Give me more details on the last one, the bromean thing. I like it the best :D

I'm actually gonna read these to my uncle, he's always coming up with stuff like this lol
Not really the stuff ya want to play with, but the thought (cooler), not the material, has some thinking merit.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bromine (RP IPA: /ˈbrəʊmiːn/ OR /ˈbrəʊmaɪn/, GA /ˈbroʊmiːn/ OR /ˈbroʊmɪn/, Greek: βρῶμος, brómos, meaning "stench (of he-goats)" [1]), is a chemical element in the periodic table that has the symbol Br and atomic number 35. A halogen element, bromine is a red volatile liquid at standard room temperature which has a reactivity between chlorine and iodine. This element is corrosive to human tissue in a liquid state and its vapours irritate the eyes and throat. Bromine vapours are very toxic upon inhalation.

Dave, #3 is on the right track, but in order for the gas to return to the liquid state, it has to be compressed, and under pressure, it will return to the liquid state. Basically, air conditioning. as with any evaporator, condensor setup, you need a compressor to effect the pressure and the phase change state. Heating the gas higher on the exhaust isn't doing it - although it would be wonderful if it worked that way. But, maybe adding a coil or turbo or other device to extract exhaust heat to generate the power to run a compressor is a way to get the compressed fluid back up the the coil.

Not sure I want to make my truck amphibious yet, but the prop wouldn't move much air for ya on the driveline.

I think there has been much work on thermal isolation of turos, exhaust, etc., over the years and a google search should turn up significant information. In your search you'll find there are pros and cons to this.

I like the idea of the first question. But you lost this ******* with the others.:poke: Are you just thinking of the propellar because someone mounted a Jet Engine on an OBS Ford at Indy? The problem is that you would need something like a flat bed or no bed & you would be eating through U-Joints like crazy. Just because of the high angle you would need for the prop to clear the ground. Might just as well put a set of wings on it & call her a DF-350 or a DP-444.:hehe:

no i know the propeller idea is out there,but maybe at higher speeds it would help,what with all the weight thats inhearently already turning because of the shaft itself

If you had a 2 1/2 ton Rockwell you would have the ground & tire clearance. You could also run another drive shaft behind the axle then hook that up to your propeller. A Rockwell is one of the strongest axles around + it has 6.72 gears & can run odd angles on the shaft. Combine that with a high RPM engine like a built 12v Cummins & you might have a winner.
