    S400 Bit the dust tonite

    Pulled tonite at a brush pull and my turbo decided to give up on me. However i didnt know it. I figured that out when i got home to the shop and kept hearing a clanking/chirping noise. I thought maybe the oil pump did something weird because right at the end of my hook after the truck snuffed...

    To those at Suncoast please look at the frictions before you put them in the package please. FOr guys like me who arent full service tranny shops and dont have extra parts laying around we cant afford to have messed up frictions. I was going good on a SC IV install on an 02 when i opened up...

    Radar detectors

    I-80 in Iowa is fast too. I learned that on my way down to St Joseph Diesel. If your not doing 90mph your getting passed by troopers.

    Question: EGT's

    1300 you can hold for quite a while. I dont mean 5 minutes but the short amount of time it takes to get to 120mph wont destroy it. Its not about the peak temp its about the duration. A lot of pullers run 1800-2,000* and sometimes more. I used to with my stock turbo too. But its only for a...

    head gasket cost

    my dealer says its usually about $5000 for them to do it. I believe GM gives you 36 hours on the LB7. Personally I pull the motor. I go one step further and drop the trans too vs supporting it so that i can pull my truck in the shop after work, gut the driveline, and roll it out of the shop...

    Radar detectors

    you guys are missing the singled most important thing. At least in Wisconsin. The Cop DOES NOT HAVE TO USE THE RADAR OR PROVE YOUR SPEED. They are trained to be able to judge speed by sight. And that is all they need to give you your ticket. The radar is there to help them but in...

    Ya that was the second time his hitch broke. It broke the week before too. I think theyve got it solved now and the truck can actually spin out vs breaking a hitch. Its pretty mean. Yes the last truck was John (DMaxlover) ive never heard his truck work like that. Part of it couldve been the...

    Well here are two pics of my broken parts from last weekend. I broke the drivers side half shaft (CV). The Drivers side Output shaft (the short stub that bolts to the CV) and the inner shaft (the shaft that runs over to the pass shaft and shift fork). All at once on the line. I think what...

    They've been advertising the new sweet tea flavored vodka like crazy on the radio so tonite we went out and bought some. Its simply Sweet Tea Flavored vodka, we mixed it with some lemonade. Not bad IMO.
