Hate to hear that. Maybe they'll finish early enough for you to come by The Ranch after we get back.

Oh Yea.......have Billie stand by with the trailer.

 

Hopefully they do finish early. I haven't been following the thread closely, I assume you guys are going back to the ranch after the drags in Ennis on Saturday?

And if anyone wants to borrow the trailer, they are welcome to it, as long as they have a GN hitch (RJ )

Yep, we're coming back here. Not sure how long it will last, but I think we're leaving after the guys get to make a few runs.

 

I'll be at the Ranch Fri eve. races on Sat til I get bored then head to FF

 

hey rob, I got the muffler on and it sounds great! Thanks again.


Does anyone know where to sell my catalytic converter? I here the stuff inside is worth good money?

 

Hmmm platinum??

I'll try and wire up a schematic for the switch tomorrow.. Will be really easy...

 

60mph winds and golfball sized hail... Truck is taking a beating!!

 

Dang Brian!!! Not you too! McKinney has been hit hard lately with that crap too. The storm is passing thru here as I type.....but I haven't heard any hail hit so far.

Hope you have no damage! Let us know.

Scott I wasn't to worried about the boost pressure. I don't think 50lbs will hurt it (maybe pushing it a little).......it's the drive pressures that scare me on the stocker. With the 66 you wouldn't be having drive pressure issues, right?. I have seen boost as high as 47 with my stocker.....Lord I hate to think what the drive pressure side would be. Mike says double the boost!


It's that little voice in the back of my head saying......."you better watch it until you get a turbo". I try to listen to that voice...as it has saved my life before. Literally.

I am hoping to get a HTT 62/71/13ss (or consider a II SPS 62)pretty soon along with an ATS exhaust manifold and some sort of intake horn. Studs would be very nice! I gotta recover a little bit from the tranny fund depletion though.

Congrats on your studs! You should be making some big power for Buda!

Good Mikey! Thanks for popping in. Yep trans is done and it's sweet! You need to quit jacking around and get that clutch and lift pump install done on yours. With that 25mpg rig of yours, you should come on up sometime for a DTR get together! (wish mine got that kind of mileage)

..

 

Dang, BrIan, I hate to hear that. TV says you guys got hammered good. My daughter on the west side of McKinney got some fair sized hail....again. Up here at The Ranch, we dodged the worst part. A lot of rain and wind, but no hail. It looks like there is another one north of Denton that's headed right for me.

 

I'm running level 7 and neither the clutch nor the stock lift pump has given out yet.
I have the funds set aside for a new pump (probably go with the Raptor) for when the day comes. Which maybe years by the way....

Gotta install my Daystar 1.5" coil spring lift here shortly and the next mod is Mike's SS intake horn. You need to crack the whip on him to get some built.

BTW, nice looking traction bars you got there.

We got a little hail here around 330 this morning. Passed by pretty quick. Truck was shoehorned in the garage just in case.

Not going to make this one, got a list of things to do around the house that don't get done during the week while I'm gone. But hopefully it looks like that travel schedule will be changing and I'll be staying at home more often.

But I will be around town in case anyone has any major failure. I've taken my trip on the trailer, so I'm more than happy to help anyone else out.

 

Durant was lucky....again! Lake Texoma seems to either dissipate or 'split' most storms so they go around us. Every once in a while, one will barrel down Hwy 70 and hit us, but yesterday I watched them all go around. Just an inch of rain. This am we have that great 'washed earth' smell!

Rob, you WANT to be there when they do your roof? I usually get the heck out of the house.

Anyone who has lost unexplainable mileage.... take note. I just picked up 1 mpg, back to where I use to be. The hose to my needle valve (for FP gauge shut off) had split at the clamp and was leaking only when truck was running. Finally leaked bad enough to drip on ground while idleing.

I mention this only because I had accepted the mileage loss as due to Mach 6's and thought I had to live with it for the HP.
Should have been more curious and less fatalistic.

Crap!

I knew I should've swept that stuff up off the shop floor and saved it!

They are ready to be ordered - just need to get the dang PayPal button up on the site with pix & ordering info!
