Wow Augie! I can't believe you would get rid of the other truck..that was the most consistent truck on the drag strip and a trophy winner

Good luck with the new one

Top, I'm not getting rid of my crewcab,i just found a fresher 12 v from a 92 extended cab d 250. Me and McMopar are using it for pieceparts. Phil is going to attempt to graft the back of the cab onto his 74 crew and make a 1 st gen mega cab. I'm using the wire harness to replace my rat's nest and the donor has tilt and cruise control that i'm putting into mine. I don't think i would ever get rid of my cc. I'm also making it a dually. I have all dually components now i need fenders for the bed. Should be unique to say the least. I'm just wanting to make it a more comfortable and quieter truck to drive.

I don't know if you PSD guys have the problem we do getting full boost but last time I was at Waynes I was running tuning that normally got me at 48-50PSI and it was seeing 34 PSI on the dyno; when he rode the brakes hard to load it we saw 40. We just had Winston's on the dyno over at Majestic and it is a SuperFlow with eddy current loading - Winston normally gets ~55 PSI but was only getting 40, I told them to load it down, they ran a 1 second load at the beginning of the run and his gauge pegged out at 60PSI then when the load released it came back down to 54 and held it for the rest of the pull.

SuperFlows normally dyno lower than Dyno Jets but I have a feeling on a turbo vehicle it's probably not the case.

Either way Wayne will do all he can to make sure you are happy with your pulls, be ready so smell some brakes if you want to see full boost. As has been said he and his crew are top notch guys and know what they are doing.
