but I've already ground the zero plate, put it full forward, put the afc cover full up, installed the GSk. ordered lazercut DVs. got the hx40 for it. and LAST needs a GOOD set of injectors. then a tune up I'm sure for smoke.

tame may be what i said..........its a race truck that I can haul the family and the dog in.

for stack gear I got the 6" miter cut stack and some 90* from old red availiable.

If you're looking at something like 370's or DDP4's, you might want to get something like 181 DV's instead. Less heat, and probably just as much power. That much fuel is gonna overcome that 40.

you're probably right on there. I haven't actually ordered the dvs yet though. so there time to decide. then a good big single when I need to upgrade the 40.

Yup.. Even I can do it... I think stock 215 DV's would overpower an HX40 IMHO with DDP4's or equivalent.

maybe 181s with ddp4 would be a good ballance point for now. I do know the 131s and stock injectors have to go though. maybe after winter now though.

You could alway put a BTH-3B under that 40. You would enough air for almost any sticks you could put in. Luke, you do have my old PDR twin HX-40, that set-up to work with the BTH-3B. I have a my old PDR hot pipe for that turbo just collecting dust at home.

Why did you go and sell your 97? That was a great looking truck.

Ten little fingers and ten little toes arrived and requested a back seat. I will miss the mechanical music of the 12-valve but I'm also looking forward to the potential within 6.7.

We'll chat at the next GTG.

Congrats on the addition! We just moved up from a 2nd gen to a third gen for the same reason.

2nd gen backseat is ok for 10 little toes but we moved upto 20 and needed a bit more room.

So, which direction is this thread heading in now??

No offense to anyone, but the AB Chapter does get off thread topic a lot.

I would say that it's kinda our style or mark in the DTR world.

There, now add me to the guilty.
