Ditto.. Overhead calc doesn't count!

I have a hand calculated 19.5 with my 6.7 on Blacktec software. I KNOW that the other V-8's don't get that as we all compared books...

Very impressive numbers. Hows the tranny holding up to that on the street?

Stock trans is gone. It would still run great on tune alone but at the track it couldn't put the power down with the nitrous so I upgraded.

Truck weighs 6800 with me in it. Being lowered helps fuel economy as does the 2wd. Yeah my truck read out is 8L/100km. Any highway driving it gets mid 20's hand calculated.

We gonna have to do another dyno GTG at the end of the year or begining of next year. It would fun to have more competion.

Its about time, been trying to get a few high powered duramaxes out. The ford was a suprise, but its welcome.

I just meant that a ford making such decent power levels, is almost unheard of and thankfully it’s about time. Usually they only last a few races then its time for a new motor, forget any of the normal usage like driving on the street and towing a heavy trailer with the race truck. Time will tell, if it survives.

. And yes, everyone is welcome. Its fun to see different makes, models and engine sizes running the dyno. Lets not forget that really cool 4bt ride. What did it put up for ponies? So many cool trucks for such a small group.
