Ya its the hub conversion kit from EMS offroad. It went smooth, If you want to take a look just let me know by PM as i will be in calgary tommorow and friday. I could not justify the dealer bearings @510 each Or aftermarket(so far no luck with aftermarket parts)for 250 each. the dollar is good now so i paid a good low price and it is a very good kit. It need a little better instructions, but overall i had no troubles installing in my drivway by meyself.

Dodger, I would be very pleased if my truck layed down 260. Eventually I'd like to get it sitting at 350hp
Ya but with little work and some tweeking, 350 should be no problem. hope to see everyone there.

Should be a good day. Do the Calgary guys want to meet at the Timmy's/Esso station near Crossfield on #2 as usual on Saturday morning?

Would the guys from Red Deer, Lacombe, Rimbey area like to meet up in Ponoka at the Timmies? Or somewhere else? We could travel up together then. Let me know what you guys think.

for sure I'd like to take a peek. I have a ford D60 high pinion in the garage I was thinking about swapping in to do away with the CAD & the unit bearings all at the same time.

What time at the Timmies/Esso?

I'm in for a caravan.

Kevin,

Send me the specs (PM or post - I don't care). With filters / without? I don't need much. Just some type of helper to keep me away from the big zero when I turn my XZT higher than Level 1. An inline helper I think would work wonders, but I'm open to opinions, offers, and /or suggestions. I cringe at my fuel pressure on higher settings, so I keep it at zero and 1 usually.

Also, I can see filters hanging down being an issue for the farm and muddy roads out hunting.

It;ll be $90 for a fully catered dyno per truck if we have better than 10 trucks. which I can't see being a problem. And I'm on days off till Wed next week. So whenever Sun Mon Tues works. I'm trying to get organized to go to a farm and pick up my '55 GMC 9500 from the field its in. I'm hoping for Sat but it might be Sun that I get to go out.

Kevin.......I do really in fact need a new fuel system before I plonk that quadzilla beta box on. I'm not trying to scoop it from Festus he talked up first....but I really need one too. filters are good for me. I was going to plonk a walbro in there but a Fass would be better.

It comes complete with filters (which I just replaced 25 miles ago) New ones are 895, so the first person to come up with say 500 bucks it is theirs.. It is 1 year old exactly.
