I guess I am old school, but I was just trying to look up Diesel Dynamics website and its no longer valid.. Did they succumb to the flooded diesel market?
I remember them as one of the innovators way back when..

They closed up after Edge was bought by the same company that owns Superchips, Race Pak and MSD. Lawrence went back to designing and selling guns and gun parts. Keith went back to work for Dynojet.

Thanks for the information.

Also, what happened to Joe Donnelly? DD made a believer out of him! I read he had some health problems and moved to NM or something. He helped me a lot with my 12V. Craig

I can remember sticking in some Diesel Dynamic injectors and turning my "3 light Edge box" to orange and having lots of fun with the local PSDs.

I ran DD2's in my '99. It developed poor mileage symptoms so I shipped them to Keith Locklear. He e-mailed me immediately upon receipt that two were subpar. Those were rebuilt and four more balanced injectors were thrown in and shipped back to me,all in one week! Great company and service.

Ya, I forgot about Joe.. Huge TDR supporter and alot of good stuff came from that shop..

Mr. Big Ram

Just had dinner with him last night. He's doing fine. He moves between his home here and the one in NM. If you need to get in touch with him, let me know!

C Schomer

Thanks for the news about Joe. I don't know if he would remember me but tell him Hi - I lived in the Denver area when he helped me with my 97 215. He kept trying to talk me into a 10 plate but I got an 11 from him instead, which I was very happy with. I'm really glad to hear he is fine! I think he's actually a chemist. Is he still doing that? I miss his stories about "Sickly"! Someone else who faded out of the picture was Piers. He and Joe turned into the dynamic duo! Craig

Lil Dog

Ya, Piers showed up last year with PEAK Diesel Performance but since has disappeared again.. Some real Icons in the industry. Scotty is in that list as well as the late HVAC!...

Scotty

I am still floating around. Last time I saw Joe was a few years back in NM at a TDR get together. He and I had a few laughs and and talked awhile on how things have changed. Piers, Nowell [HVAC...rip] Kurt Kwik spool...and many others did a lot for this industry. Lawrence from DD and I were tinkering one day and we learned that his mother lived a block from me for many years.
True B.O.M.B.ers. LOL
I remember when Mark tst was doing his ECM alterations many years ago when Joe was there [in NM again] and we were all making gains with our little paltry, gutless diesels.

Scotty

Lil Dog

Yup.. reeling back the clock.... HVAC was the one who started the drag racing craze with diesel trucks. I may still have some video on my old computer. The Psycotty air system was just on the market and the 400 Hp club only have but a couple members.
