    Well, I am putting the truck on the Dyno Tuesday to see what it does and maybe that will help me pick a direction.

    New duramax rods iv been working on

    The cost of R&D and Operations will take longer to recoup with lower volume sales. A company that makes rods and already has the facility and equipment will still have tooling and fixture costs associated with a new product line. Then any company that cares about the product they put their...

    Help me decide

    I've been debating for months what to do with my truck and can't make up my mind. I've been posting threads for specific questions, searching old threads, calling vendors for input, etc and still can't make up my mind so i am turning to the collective for thoughts. The truck has Stealth 64, 30...

    Winter Project time

    I can see it either way. My LB7 is payed off and that is very nice. However, I liked the looks of my 2011 better. All depends on what is going to fit your finances best.

    The future

    The problem with that would be all the coal rolling idiots that would tag along and be counter productive.

    The future

    Look into some of the things they can do to "terrorists" and then look into what can define YOU as a terrorist. Nobody disagrees with fighting terrorism but some in our government consider christian gun owners as terrorists.

    The future

    Politicians historically do gain money and power by creating a problem then stepping in as the solution.

    New duramax rods iv been working on

    So we have a test short block and a dyno to use now. All we need is rods to test. Maybe we could get a go fund me account going for the test set. I would be willing to throw in ten bucks. If nothing else it should be entertaining.

    JV Team starting Third World War

    There will never be peace with the Middle East. If you are not familiar with the bible do some quick research on Isaac and Ishmael. Also, it is foolish to believe that terror groups aren't already in the US and waiting. All we can do is be ready to respond as needed. It is good to see people...

    30% Overs HP

    What kind of power are people making on 30 overs? I am looking at a CP3 upgrade and a bigger turbo and want to know what the limits will be with the 30 overs that are already in the truck. I know this depends on PW and i am willing to push it a bit. When i build the motor they will be changed...

    where were you?

    I was a freshman in HS. 1st period teacher came running in the room and turned the tv on. We watched the news on every class that day. It was the only time I wasn't happy to be watching tv in class. I watch the tv specials every year on the anniversary. Never forget.

    Compression Test

    After the Manifolds and up pipes were installed i started noticing a ticking sound that sounds like an exhaust leak that sounds like it is coming from the rear driver side cylinder. I have had 2 shops look at it and nobody can find an exhaust leak. Could this be a related issue?

    Compression Test

    The 2 stroke oil was used based on the suggestion that it could be a stuck injector, and it seemed to work for a while. So Harbin, you think the compression check wouldn't tell me anything since yours checked fine until failure? Ne-max, i am running the same tune as i was then, would it still...

    Compression Test

    A few months ago Injector #7 was showing a -5ish balance rate and i was getting intermittent smoke on start up, hard cold starts, and occasional hazing. This is on a set of new Exergy 30 overs that were installed in February. I started getting paranoid about my rods, but was told it was most...
