First aluminum duramax rod!!

[Diesel power]

On topic posts are needed, not heated personality conflics. This is twice i've asked for a few to be civil or not post! How does this shit have to go on before Mod accually steps in?

This is supposed to be tech about aluminum rods I have in my engine. Not about someone's hurt feelings or tight panties thats wadded up! Is it not?

On your rev gain would that be on a 300 or 600 step on the dyno? Jeff

Dude! did you miss what was said to me? on my part it was all retaliation, from being intentionally provoked

How were you provoked? Looks to me like Guy stated that he had personally tested the effect that reciprocating weight had on power, and then he asked what tests you had done. Are you upset because you were called out?

It's normal for gasser engines to rev gain better with less rotaional and recipricating mass, and because a diesel is still an engine leads me to believe that the same applies.

I guess we will have to see what happens. Should dyno about mid april.

However, if you want to spin real fast, everything you can save on the reciprocating part of the motor will go a long way to keeping it together.

But what do I know...

I agree with the above.

the big end of the rod is the heavyest part and thus is where much improvemnet can be made to the loss of rotational weight.

Ask any engine builder out there whats more important recipricating or rotating? #1 is recipricating! 5lbs up there is worth like 20lbs in the rotating dept! But, hey im a bettycrocker subscriber......whats a engine.

I disagree with the above in red.

You better go make some more phone calls...................








Dissagreements are fine, but to blatantly Misrepresent the truth of performance engine opperation and function is a wrong. Then telling me to make phone calls........He knows what he is doing to make things problematic.

I have to apologize to the community for my posting, and offer an explanation, I'm not normally like this.

I just have a real problem with "Posers".

First it was Banks is going to build him a twin motor to the Sidewinder,

Then he wanted to build an aluminum block for the Dmax,

Then he starts selling crap engine cores to members of this board.

Then he wants to have BME build him rods.

Last I heard he was looking for locals to help him put the engine together in his garage.

It is just one thing after another with this guy...............He is very very good at regurgitating information.

Just the mere fact that he feels the need to post the same thread about his parts on multiple boards seems to point to the fact that he is really trying so very hard to be important.

A Classic Poser.

:rofl::rofl::rofl: Guy, i would respond with answers to your accusations, but that would just drag out this abortion of a thread into a even more unrealistic dream world. As your post Suggested.

Good luck with business in the future Guy!

BTW, did anyone notice the block that the rod is sitting on in the teaser picture? SBC I think, but the rod is covering the distributor hole, so I could be wrong. Definitely not a Dmax block.

Good eye! SBC it is...

I noticed that too, I wasnt sure if it was supposed to be a joke or not..

No apology necessary Guy, Wade is actually good to have around for ENTERTAINMENT purposes. He is very good at showing people what kind of a person he really is. I am pretty sure he is afflicted by what is known as "little mans disease". This forces him to try and get recognized.

He has told many people of how he is an innovator in Diesel performance, the best reply came from someone who said "yeah Wade, you innovate them right off of the UPS truck, when they deliver them to your door".

I think we will always have these types around, fortunately their are only so many forums for them to be banned from.

BTW the "little man's diesel" is in your pants!:rofl:

Maybe i'll go back and re read all 100 post's in this thread and fine where "I" have anger issues after a few post's.................ummm no about 90 post's later is when the issues began.........ummm yea all was fine untill someone got there feelings hurt and need to vent by posting about a dissagrement, then never backed up there claim..........yea pretty typical if ya ask me.

at least i WAS posting good tech info untill provoked to anger......sound about right?

BTW i thought this thread was about Rods.....Not life style......Feelings,.....personalities.....ect

C,mon Lets get back on topic.:hug:

 

[Josh2002cc]

If I may...

It warms my heart knowing that almost everyone within this thread should be safe as far as income goes because if any of your day jobs get out-sourced there is always the pshycological field, seems most of you are good at telling other people what thier issues are.

And before you try it...I bat for no team

On edit: I also include Tony the Tiger with the above mentioned.

I have not posted for a while, but why is it when Diesel Power starts to post he turns into an A$$ and likes to stir up trouble. I don't mind you being controversial. When you try to make out that everybody else is stupid that is the limit. I don't even know you and now I would have a hard time being friends. Your attitude needs some work!!! Are you bitter about life in general??

I knew another guy at another site who went by the name Diesel Power.......

He acted much the same way, except he got rich doing it and was a tool of another know nothing who liked to think he knew everything.

:rofl:

Carry on, this is a good read.

Quite a delightful read so far I thought.

There is some good tech in here.....if you overlook the entertainment value

I have steped in to clean up your posts twice. :hello:

A third time you will spread this crap someplace else.

My BAN finger is itchy.

You do not have a running competition Dmax yet everyone else is doing it wrong. You say Pat miss tuned his engine and blew a head gasket. That it is all about the tuning. Yet you can not tune your CTD. Your just typing with your large butt cheeks. You have screwed over members of this site on the sale of your goods.

After all this we are supposed to defend you? Sorry you get what you get because you have earned it. All the money in the world can by the class you lack.
