sorry for all the questions but you do have to run on the dyno?

my truck would be pointless to run with my trans but i would still like to come to hangout and check out the trucks.

Thats what I am going to do. I am bringing my RC helicopters to fly around and bring a few food items (or beer) for the cook out. I dont see any point to me running again since I have only done a few mods since the last time.

If you are able, sat night there are a bunch of us going to Camp Hill to watch the UFC fight at the Coliseum. Its a good time!

No, you do not have to dyno. You can come up and just hang out if you would like.

About what time do trucks start lining up to dyno? I want to dyno when my truck is nice and warm at operating temp. and don't care to get up as early as need be. Thanks, Jay

Jay, the facility is right beside a 4 lane highway. You could go up and down a few miles right before your time slot. There is a sign up sheet that you pick your time. So, 15 min. before your run go for a drive and pull right into the dyno bay... nice and warm. Thats what I did last time. I wanted to make sure my tranny and diff oils were at least warm before running the crap out of it

I am planning to be there on Saturday as it will be the first ever dyno run for the truck and I'm curious what my numbers will be. With all the trucks that are coming you can also look at it as a truck show for other owners to check each others trucks out. My truck is a dually and if I remember correctly according to the rules don't you have to remove the outside wheel on each side of the rear axle (to essentially run as a single rear wheel truck)? Anybody got an estimate on what power you think I'd be making on a dyno run with the mods I have in signature? Looking forward to coming and meeting some diehard diesel heads.
