DPC 2019 Voting

[Bdsankey]

I know DPC is not insnanely popular on this forum but I thought I would let everyone know that 2 members for sure are in the voting! They would be myself (Brad Sankey) and Richard Coker (coker6365).



This truck was never built to be a “show” vehicle, it was built for quite the opposite. My intent with this build is to make a sleeper that looks like it should belong in a high school parking lot. While some may think that is dumb, it is not a new concept. Sleepers vehicles have been around for decades, just not anywhere near as popular in the diesel community.

Some importing information was left out from what I had typed on of the info on the entry sheet so I’ll clarify.

1) Engine: CP-Carrillo hybrid rotating assembly, SoCal 6480AF cam, Suncoast Flexplate, Fluidampr dampener, SoCal pushrods, SoCal beehive springs, ARP fasteners throughout

2) Intake/exhaust: The truck has a HSP S400 kit with a t6 pedestal. It has MBRP exhaust to a home-fabbed stack setup

3) Transmission: it has a Goerend J 3000 stall converter, defeo 6 pinion p2 planet, billet input/intermediate/output, ratio-tek pump kit, suncoast build kit and some other fun bits put together by Blown Black Performance.

3) Differentials/Gears: It has 3.42 gears as well as a front e-locker and Yukon truetrac in the rear with Yukon 4340 shafts.

5) Tuning: Tuning is handled by Duramax Tuner/Calibrated Power Solutions

6) The truck will likely have a 480/96/1.10 T6 turbo from Forced Inductions on it for this upcoming year.

Your torque numbers are damn good. Makes me jealous. Just remember. Do it to have fun.

That 820/1748 is 20psi low on boost. After I got a tune update I went from ~60psi to 72psi and climbing when the bullseye 475 comp wheel exploded. On the dyno at duramax tuner I recorded a max of ~51-52psi measured in the y-bridge on an Edge 0-100psi sensor. On the streets of Mexico (post tune adjustment) 68-70psi was pretty normal with the puny HSP S400 air filter installed. Filter off it picked up even more boost.


Correct, I'm not counting on a win or anything. I am outgunned in the overall HP game with some of the sure fire entries (Richard being one of them). I mainly want to use this event (if I make it of course) as a time to build more connections in the enthusiast world and show more guys that it doesn't take some big name shop to put your truck together and it doesn't have to be a show truck to have fun.

Take what you have and enjoy it, because at the end of the day thats all any of us want to do.

Moved to "National Events" section.


I stopped paying attention to DPC after the Tomac years.

 

[Bdsankey]

Thank you, didn't know exactly where it should live.

 

[Burn Down]

I still follow it if someone I know is in it. Good luck guys.

Richard Coker is also in the voting. This is his third and last year to try to get in. He is putting off his weight reduction plans because they don't allow fiberglass in the DPC.

Yup! I listed him as well in the top post. Hoping we can leverage the forum a bit to try and get two of our own in. 3 GM spots to fill, 4 to pick from.

Shows how closely I read! Lol. Good luck!

Thanks! Hoping both Richard and myself make it in!

I ordered my Billet ETR 480/96/1.10 T6 with V2 race cover from Forced Inductions last Wednesday (1/13) so I should have it in a week or so.

Are you planning on using NOS? It always seems that everyone that has a big single never does that great in the driving events because of the altitude.

I'm using a purge solenoid as a spool jet wired into the horn circuit since my horn doesn't work anyway. I will have a 0.120 solenoid on a button as well as two NX300 solenoids on a progressive 2 stage controller.

Realistically, the only two events that will pose a problem with a big single is going to be the fuel economy test and the obstacle course. All other events I am able to make sure the thing is spooled and ready to go. I am also not changing gears (planning on going to 3.42s) until after DPC (if I make it). The 3.73 should help me.

My goal is to drive the truck the last 200miles or so to get a feeling for exactly how bad the air is going to be on the truck.

Sounds like your pretty much ready.

Sweet. Can't wait to see two guys from here go head to head!

All I really have left is the little time consuming stuff. Still gotta add nitrous, might do it in the parking lot who knows.
