So what else did I miss? Is the interior of the shop a slightly darker color after Tyler's run?

Told yall if I didn't at least have 500hp I was gonna make a killer smoke show. 
Buck, good numbers but I'm still not convinced that a HRVP is worth the extra money for the extra power. Not to mention that if my truck loped at all I'd rip the pump off and sell it. I refuse to live with that kinda idle in a daily driver and it's just to big of a risk on getting one that either does or doesn't idle rough.

Really good weekend...
Charlie's Chili
Added Traction Bars
Dyno event with big turn out
Great Weather
Controlled Fire
Nine hours sleep total over three days
Thanks to Justin & Brian for help with the traction bar install.... and especially to Mike, for all his hard work to get our prototype bars installed in time for the Dyno event.
I tested them hard on a rough strip of Hwy 75, and a washboard dirt road near my house. Improved control and less violent ride was very evident. Very happy with my new 'twin bars' (haven't named them yet)!
Once again, thanks Charlie for his hospitality and a great spot to hold our weekend get togethers!

OK well my great mileage MT BFGs aren't going to last as long as I thought
Throwing this truck into corners now is SO SO much FUN!!!! The back end of the truck just plants and doesn't go anywhere!!! It's like being in a completely different vehicle!!!! (Grinning from ear to ear). That head in the back of my truck may have some more cracks in it by now... It has had some rude encounters with the sides of my bed a few times now!!

I think his fire hose nozzle injectors are hurting power more than helping... Not enough air to support the last set of injectors, now there is REALLY not enough air!!! The truck is in constant choke mode with all that fuel....

Trustworthy place to check out my rear diff.
Hey, I need to find a place I can trust to check out my rear diff. I think the clutches in the LS are going. This is based on some issue it had when pulling a heavy load. Anybody know of someone local to N. Texas?
