Hey guys I saw this and thought I would chime in have you looked up David Dunbars Dyno schedule to see if he is busy. I am sure he would want to come down.

I will have a factory reciever hitch mounted but moved as far forward as possible and I made a 5-position hitch just like PourinDiesel's with a lunette eye that is 3" ID. I don't know of any but with such short notice it's gonna be tough to find one... I will call the place I dyno'd at last and see if they know of one...

Good Job Buck! Hope this comes through. I had posted another thread in the "Competition" section to see if anybody else had any ideas. https://www.dieseltruckresource.com/...d.php?t=159323

Hey guys good to hear the dyno problem might get solved. Just wondering though if any of you guys were planning on staying in any hotels? I got another buddy with a Cummins coming up there and we will be looking for a place to stay Friday night so if some of yall were staying in hotels maybe we could try and get the same one and hang out all night or something.

*edit* I will be staying at the Super 8 motel that was posted earlier in this board, its only 5 minutes on mapquest from the arena. If anybody is going to be staying at this hotel drop me line**

sorry guys no dyno. I tried every thing in my power to get one there, but just too short notice or already booked. so because sombody couldn't honor their contract, it really makes me look bad. so I am truly sorry and off about this. But I will hold a dyno day for thr bargin price of $25 to try and make everbody happy, so let's throw out some ideas on dates. oh p.s. completely ***** out from getting the arena ready(wha...wha...) hope most or all still plan on comin. were adding a tug of war contess! too..
