Now, that's just plain funny right there.

Ouch. I still hold it for fuel only but I guess that doesnt count for much anymore. I am nothing but a memory. Maybe someone should just put me out to pasture.

Listen to me whine. Hopefully I will be working on it before too long. Its all about priorities and it just isnt at the top of my list anymore. Its running it just has a cracked head thats leaking water.

Don't despair, remember it's the journey, not the destination that's important. George Washington hasn't done much lately, but he is still important. ...Mark

What is your HP on fuel only Stomp? I personally think that anything above 600hp (with or without nos) is nuts, but I have never drove any vehicle with that much power so I guess I'm not allowed to judge.

You have an intercooled THREE speed auto? Are you sure? Or is that a typo?

It is indeed an intercooled 3 speed automatic but it has o/d unlike the non intercooled ones.

Ah I see. Seems like most people will call the overdrive another gear and say it's a four speed.

I wish I could have a force of guys that all drive awesome, personalized trucks working for me. Think of how many first gens I would have in my business parking lot. It would be like a museum of old-fashioned mopar/cummins horsepower.

The only reason I put naws on it was because I had a hurt motor and was only at 500hp with water/meth. It put me back over 600 instantly. Worked for a while until we tore it down to find out what had happened. Cam gear slipped. Rebuilt it and the only reason I updated to a bigger system was because I didnt want to lose to Sands. Look how far that got me. Lost a motor that I only had 450 miles on it. Rebuilt it and during break in I spun a bearing on the crank and lost the crank. Rebuilt it again and found that my head is cracked in an odd spot. Maybe I should start paying to have my stuff worked on again. LOL

644hp on fuel only was the highest I got and I backed it up with a 642.
