even a slope front, or a v front, still pulls like a barn door when you get it sized large enough to put a car/truck in.

gimme a truck on a gooseneck anyday to a car/truck in a enclosed.

exactly my camper gets roughly 11 mpg average towing

When Haller and I used to stack 2 trucks on one goose we got around 9.5 to 10 mpg and we were about 12,000 lbs heavier

Erik: "Get the truck in OD, start the pull at 2K and run it to 4k"
Operator: "4k?"
Erik: "4K...."


Runs it pass 4500 before I thought Erik was going to lay him out LOL

He also Waited for his truck for 3 yrs. Why would he risk blowing it up to put on a good show....

Being as peak power is around 3600 there is no point in running past 4k. The tune he ran was built for nitrous. Just decided to get more time on it before spraying and seeing what it will do.

That's why I try to dyno our trucks because most operators have no clue and take the trucks to the limiter. It's bullsh1t

Yeah that pissed me off a little.
If I do spray it, it will be on the dyno . It had a 1700mile drive to make and a bigger number didn't matter to me
