Everything still a go. Joel are you gonna have your truck back? Have not heard anything lately, so I figured I would pop this back up top. Tim

Doesn't look like it will be ready for the dyno. I am really disgusted.
I am going to pick up another truck tonight. I found a 92 3500 4x4 dually up in Chester that is in real good shape. I should have it in time to move my trailers up the the CVFD. My sons truck is down right now with bad front wheel bearings and ball joints. It may not be ready either depending on how hard it is to get the parts and get them back on. I need the special tool for the axle seals. We are trying to get one ordered.

Everything is still on track so keep in touch.

Valve body is doable but we will not have a lift there to do the converter. I might bring my 12v timming tools if some one wants to time theirs also. Do we have a number count on whos coming yet? I hope we have at least 50 trucks. Tim

Well, the people called and said mine should be ready for this upcoming weekend. I'll believe it when I see it. I'll at least have the 92 there anyway.
I certainly hope some of this rain blows away before the next two weeks is up. We don' need no steenking rain for this event. Parts come in tomorrow for my sons truck so we are going to try to have it ready too. Looks like DavidTD is going to be busy.
Butch, the 92 should be able to move the GN, if not, I will give you a holler. Thanks The guy I bought my 92 from has a Ford 350 he wants to bring along too.
See you guys soon.

Tim,
I'm sure you know I was just kidding. I'm planning on putting the TC and VB in this weekend. Now if my backordered dual guage comes in I might want some help installing the EGT fitting... I'm not holding my breath though. They told me 2-4 weeks.

See you guys there. I might even bring some food.........

Too bad Scotty can't make it or we'd just have him roll it over on its roof and access it from the top.

It's good to have another Cummins owner in the area! I'm just up route 460 in Disputanta and I'll be looking forward to seeing ya.
Watch out for that dude named Shovelhead,,,,,,,,,, he's one of those old biker dudes that just might lead you astray and start telling how you can BOMB your truck to get more HP.
