May '24 Chat -- MayDay, a holiday or a cry for help?
I agree that they are the strongest stock. With big power I don’t care what is behind it. You’re going back into it more than you want too. 😂- NC-smokinlmm

That seems like a great idea. I’ve heard they can hold power stock. Wonder what the limits of them are?- NC-smokinlmm

It’s been a rough road. I’m still moving forward with it though. I want to see it run a 10 on mud tires. 😁- NC-smokinlmm

I was tempted to swap but once I heard they are going thru them also I stayed the course. Making real progress now, maybe my truck will become the poster child for the 6l80. Lol- NC-smokinlmm

Don’t believe everything you hear. They still have to go thru the 4l80 quite often at 1000 hp. I’m on my 4th 6l80 build, the new builder has some super secret stuff him and circle d figured out. Hopefully the new trans can hold the 408.- NC-smokinlmm

Worth an LS 1000 hp isn’t very hard anymore. It’s still not cheap though. Lol Most difficult part now is a transmission that can handle them.- NC-smokinlmm

April '24 Chat --- Got Jokes?
Just mill some 243/799’s throw in a truck cam from BTR with some flex fuel injectors and that 408 will rip and make more torque than a stock lb7. lol- NC-smokinlmm

Try running some ring free to get rid of carbon buildup, it will cause low compression.- NC-smokinlmm

Catastrophic turbo failure - 72mm Danville performance- Now what?
When marine diesels start to blow the dipstick out that’s when captains know it’s time for a rebuild. I’ve seen them duct taped to the tube to keep them in so they could keep running charters. Usually indicates ring wear or a crack somewhere.- NC-smokinlmm

They just want to make ICE vehicles so expensive it would be cheaper to switch to electrics. The downsides seem less of a problem when saving money gets involved for corporations. lol.- NC-smokinlmm

Crazy shit right there. It’s getting worse every day. The scammers calls I get are 5 to 10 a day. Version and the other phone companies are responsible, when I travel outside of the country I pay for the world phone service so I don’t roam. Funny I don’t get a single scam or telemarketing call...- NC-smokinlmm
