One other quirk about the transmission? The shifter cable was TOTALLY exposed beneath the body. It often suffered failure from abrasion to road hazards and offroad hazards too! This was the "BEST" failure scenario you could hope for with these machines. Admittedly FULL SKIDPLATES beneath the body probability would've helped delay tje cable fray failure but sooner or later it WOULD snap anyway from corrosion at its mounting points. ALL THAT SAID... I MISS MY 1979 IH "CUSTOM DELUXE" SCOUT terribly! I'd take it back in a blink.of an eye if I had the chance. Good for you guys at "ANYTHING SCOUT" for keeping these trusted (If rusted!) old pals of ours up and running on and off our roads! IH SCOUT ANYTHING LESS WAS JUST A CAR!!! (Felt like I betrayed an old friend when I sent mine away. Forgive me "WOODY".)

Great job everybody! Back in the late 90's I owned two Scouts ('79 & '80). The '79 yellow w/ tan interior and white top truck had the 345 V8 that was fun to drive and play with off road. The '80 brown w/ tan interior had, of course, the Nissan Turbo Diesel and was a slug at best but could pull a train out of a ditch. I didn't have a need to pull any trains out of ditches so I sold the Nisan diesel to a fishing boat crew. With the help of my friends at a shop called 'Anything Scout' in Redwood City, CA I procured a 392 V8 and had it balanced/rebuilt w/ a slightly radical cam. I got to help with the conversion. The end result was quite a difference to say the least. Driving both trucks with the tops removed was therapy here in Northern California. I since sold both but have great memories of them. I now keep Mercedes diesels from going to the junk yard (if I can). Cheers!

Growing up my grandfather had many Scouts, Scout II's, etc... I did end up trading one he gave me that had spun bearings because it got in a flood and he didn't drain the oil or anything and started it with water in the engine for a 1975 International truck with a Chevy 350 in it cammed, headers, carb and turbo 400 trans. It was a beast, but someone ended up stealing it and I was never able to recover it. I sure miss these things and would love to find one cheap enough to have one LS swapped and built for my son as his first vehicle.

The only thing I would want to do if I can find a Scout cheap enough is to install a full soft top on it, but still retain the factory hard top and set aside just in case I got tired of the soft top or would have to remove the soft top for repairs or whatever. But yes, the Gen4 L20 4.8L is the same engine I have in my built 2011 Silverado extended cab with a turbo and built 4L80E trans along with a fully rebuilt and strengthened rearend with 4.10 gear. It is a stout engine and loves turbo 100%. Mine makes 650RWHP on 13psi with a single ON3 70mm turbo.
