Thanks man! I've got a ton of hours into the details!

I think it'd do 135+ of i decided to push it that hard... I always drive to the track though, so there's that lol.

Hopefully I get some better fuel only numbers out of it before fall as well. It's still pretty conservative really.

I could always show up with the winch and gooseneck again in case you break it like last spring.. We've got this rolling trucks off the trailer down to an artform as you know..

Thanks man! I was expecting to see your truck doing some gnarly things this year! How is that thing doing?!

Waiting for my converter to be restalled. Been at the place for over 2 months. Probably going back to a 5r. Not being able to drive the truck is pointless so I'd rather have to fix the trans every other week and drive it than not have the ability to drive it.

Thank you sir! I appreciate that! I'm super happy with that color - kind of out of my comfort zone but it came out perfect!

No they're working on 4R stuff. And it's gonna be amazingggg.

And Im telling you JD if you bring your truck out here it'll never be the same. That east coast air is addictive!

Someone else builds a bolt together converter now. Can't remember who though.

Interesting. I was debating on getting one, but I couldn't ever get anyone to quantify why spending 600 on a steering box was a good idea.

a factory box is 4-5ish so whats another 100

that thing runs jg!:evil

Thanks buddy! How's your little truck running?!

Sure thing.

- Carrillos
- Aftermarket Mahle pistons from RCD
- Elite 1x cam
- 90% nozzles (switching soon to fancy new RCD flow matched and balanced injectors)
- Stock heads
- ported intake
- bd manifolds
- no limit pipes
- max power X 66/88
- elite dual pumps

... Ish lol

Thanks my regular cab is not even close to being done. My black truck motor got a thrust bearing, so I'm in the process of building another motor for it, thinking about putting the max powers back on. I have a 75 single now but I want to be able to tow with it again.
