Default 76 power wagon does it count as a 1st gen Ram?

So does it count or should I be somewhere else?

Does anyone know which front axles were under the 76 W100 fulltime 4WD trucks?

the Question I have is more general then just for a power wagon.

Would Like to find info on swaping a tbi engine into a carb truck and keeping the TBI setup.

There is so much electronics that it would require the entire wiring harness as well as the TBI engine.

Got a doner truck that is going to the scrap yard once I am done, so all that can be moved. really it is an RV.

you will need all the eletrical wiring from under the hood and in the cab of the doner vehicle. you will also need an electric fuel pump or mabe use the fuel pump from the doner truck.
why do you want to convert it to tbi? carbs are soo much simple.

If you think a TBI will improve fuel mileage, you might want to rethink that. IMHO

reason I may need to swap the engine is it has a bad tick and is loosing oil out the front.
