    Chlorine dioxide was the next thing I'd try.

    Read some reviews about the Ozium air sanitizer stuff from walmart. Reviews were awesome. Bought a can and gave it a go. We'll see how it works.

    I left a cup of baking soda in it last night. Also left a cup of vinegar in too. I'll try the apple thing tonight. The mixed smell between the febreeze and smoke, gives me a headache. If I can't noticably remove the smell, I'm not sure what I'll end up doing with the truck.

    My '89 s10 daily driver has been a great truck but I have been getting tired of it. Been browsing the local classifieds for a single cab shortbed silverado with no luck. Friday night, the wife and I were headed out to dinner and saw this little beauty on the side of the road with a for sale...

    broke crower rod:(

    Broken crank sent a piston into a head on a buddies motor. The Carrillo was slightly wrinkled and about .030" shorter.

    CP Carrillo pistons, anyone running them yet?

    I don't recommend them at all. Every motor I've seen with them have puked oil. They had determined there was an issue with how the rings were setup is what I have been told. We pulled a set out of a buddies truck that would loose a quart of oil every dyno pull. Swapped in standard mahle forged...

    Borg-Warner's New S300SX-E (S369)

    My experience on s400's....I like the 1.0 housing alot better than the .90ar housing. Same spool, with greater flow.

    Borg-Warner's New S300SX-E (S369)

    Industrial injection has installed quite a few of them. The 6.7 ford loves them. One of their 6.7 shop trucks made 760hp with it and spools like stock. Seem to run great on duramax' too.

    PTE Rebuilds

    My Garrett gt5541r was rebuilt/refreshed by them prior to me buying it. Zero issues from it.

    Need a cherry picker

    2 ton harbor freight is legit. I can have the boom fully extended out and lifted as high as it will lift with a fully dressed dmax hanging from it no problem.

    Just picked up this MAC 1/2" mini impact today. This thing is wild. I am blown away with how powerful it is. Brake caliper bolts on our trains are torqued to 450ft/lbs and it pops them right off no problem. This gun is TINY! Absolutely love it!

    DIC oil reading

    After I built my motor, the oil life meter would drop to zero in about 150 miles for the first 2 oil changes. Weird for sure. After those 2 oil changes it dropped to 0 after about 1000 miles and after that, it went back to normal.

    Got my trans built but shifts extremely hard

    You can't monitor line pressure electronically. You need a gauge and the adapter.

    slow throttle response after twin install

    No

    New setup, hello banana rods!

    You're still a solid 2 - 3mph off from an 11. Thats a lot of power to make up. At 110mph, I was clicking of 12.39's.

    Larger compressor pumps (garage)

    I'm way happy with it. I think I made the right choice for sure.

    Larger compressor pumps (garage)

    Got it hooked up and it runs good. Way better than the Kobalt. The math is showing 15.1cfm out of this. Not bad at all. 4 min 25 sec from 0-125psi. 1 min 6 sec from 90psi (kick on) to 125psi (kick off). Kobalt was slightly quieter though. I may try a different filter/muffler, but for now, it's...
