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. :rolleyes: 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.

Your freindly Moderator.:)

Spread what crap? tech info.......

I have several running competition d-maxes, (Customers), matter of fact, matter fact one guy locally won the local sled pulls at the county fair's several times. and the rest race in the 1/4 or daily drive. but what do you know:rolleyes:

All non open order product sales have been taken care of, with refunds or correct parts.....Still not sure what else you could be refering too.....but then again your probably just passing stories on that you were never involved in, so really you dont know the truth, talking out of your ass with no real intentuion on making this a better site, it's obvoius you just wanna gossip and spead lies( as if you did not know there are more than one side to every storie!!!).......moveing on.

Sorry I caught this late.

Tech Info?

After you took these rods up to 1000HP, how did they measure afterwards?

Wade, all you do is pimp for freebies. You don't tune; you don't test; and you lie about it instead. Much of your "testing" is cut and paste of other's folks work from the internet, or info given to you for free from real hotrodders that you take credit for.

Prove me wrong.

Concerning the "spreading of lies":

You were allowed to sell parts here, then you tried to screw one of the members here. I stepped in and settled it when you ignored the guy. Hence you're not allowed to sell stuff anymore. The thanks I get for allowing you to advertise for free (or handling your Customer Service Complaint) is... nada. Actually, you biitched I didn't give you ENOUGH free advertising.

If you wish to lie about the situation, keep in mind I do have all the PM's, and I have personally seen the "low hour" block.

I've treated you more than fair on this site. But if you are going to call our staff members liars simply to attempt to repair your image after getting caught pulling a scam, you will be removed from the board.

John is not lying. You are.

I cant belive you build high performance diesel engines and yet dont understand how things work....

Here maybe this will help you.

Rotating weight needs to over come inertia only

Recipricating weight reguardless of what the weight is WILL MULTIPLY With every increase in RPM, there is no way around it!

so extra weight in the recipricating areas will have a more negitive effect than weight in the rotation area's....

not to say that weight is not important in the rotation areas but it is a known FACT that recipricating weight is important OVER rotation weight, any day of the week!

Maybe you WOULD have a good idea if you were not stuck in a " if it ant broke why fix it better" mentality( thats what lost me as a customer among other things), sometimes stepping outside the box is when you can really begine to innovate!

Now that your on here publically acting an ASS, ( for no reason other than we have different views) it's evident why i wont be calling you again!


There is much to be said but i have nothing nice to say so, unless futher provoked i will not say anything else to you!

Wade, I don't know you I just know since I have been on this board and othes, YOU are the one acting an ASS. I am a nobody just like you are, but I know the basics and I shut up and listen and learn form others. Not argue with someone who has been in the diesel performace world longer than you. I don't have much to think or say about you. You have issues I guess. You have no place in this world to talk to Men like Guy and Pat and Others the way you do that is just idiotic. These guys piss more knowledge than you will ever have of any motor. What do you have to prove by argueing with Pat and Guy in every thread? Do you think you will be cool if you can get a couple of people to believe your BS? Anyway have fun with your super Duramax, if you ever build it, I know posting pics of parts takes up alot of time, so it may be awhile.

Wade isn't a nobody. He's done more for diesel performance than all the members of this board put together. You didn't know that?

I have several running competition d-maxes, (Customers), matter of fact, matter fact one guy locally won the local sled pulls at the county fair's several times.

I won several local county/fair pulls with a predator, stock trans, 265 tires, and no lift pump.
I guess I'm a DMax GOD

:bow:

Tune/build a truck that wins at Indy (or other well know "national" pull) and I (and others) will be impressed.

Pat/Guy have let their actions/products speak for themselves. I suggest you do the same...

they would measure the same as they would in any other engine with the same recipricating mass as my set up,Yes i funded this whole project with my own money, sorry pat but no hand out's here, i work hard for everything i have and produce results that even you cant argue with!.
Wade, all you do is pimp for freebies. You don't tune; you don't test; and you lie about it instead. Much of your "testing" is cut and paste of other's folks work from the internet, or info given to you for free from real hotrodders that you take credit for.
accually Your way wrong on that, i have tested stuff since i've been in diesel performance Most of II's stuff for dodges was on my truck first for testing and research on there products, Industrial injection, Nano nitrous, carnivour nitrous,Van aaken, Snow performance, and many more i mean there is a lot i could post on that
Prove me wrong.

If you wish to lie about the situation, keep in mind I do have all the PM's, and I have personally seen the "low hour" block. If i had my PM's back i could prove you wrong on lots of one sided storie's you THINK you know ALL about......that is IF you did not allready delete my ammunition.....

I've treated you more than fair on this site. But if you are going to call our staff members liars simply to attempt to repair your image after getting caught pulling a scam, you will be removed from the board.

John is not lying. You are.

you are lying because the customer was taken care of and did not ask for a refund, if he had he would have recieved it. True the block had 13 hours on it. With over 35 engines sold and one complaint i'd say that they got what they paid for. You know what you should be doing is asking BOTH parties involved BEFORE you ASSume your normal position. I have never seen a honest mistake turn into such defamation as you and your cronies have made it.

Wrong is wrong, i back down to no one reguardless of who they are, if there wrong then im man enough to let them know. im not a hide behind the bushes, or kiss ass kind of person, my results speak for themselves.

IF in fact pat and guy and several others had not attacked me first there would have never been a problem. i just dont go around looking for a personal attack.

I posted this thread to be informative and to update the diesel world on new possible products, but is evident that no matter what it just cant be from me....:hello:

Whom are you referring to?

I would like to get the garbage deleted and get back on topic! other wise i'll be posting from here on out at Dmax central, i know rick wont let shit like this happen on his site!


Answer: sometime in mid-april she will be running and race ready!!:cool2:

:hello:

Don't let the door kick you in the ass on the way out. It could give you brain damage.

:rofl:

You let this happen on purpose dont you, if you were half the guy you claim to be you would have cleaned up the garbage and let the tech continue, but all you do is add to the shit pile which your KING OF!

Prove me wrong!

Uh Slick? I really haven't been on the board much lately.

Someone told me there was some jerk-off calling everyone stupid in a tech thread, so I naturally assumed it was you, and found this thread. Big surprise, eh?

Now you're saying there is another board you like better. Good for you! Do you want a brownie button?

I'm all for you testing aluminum rods, blocks, wristpins, axles, tires, fuel, toothpaste, sex lube, and aluminum swim fins.

But I'm pretty much dead set against you calling everyone stupid, and ditto for calling everyone liars.

You're of average intelligence (giving you a lot more credit than deserved), and you are "truth-impaired", yet you proclaim yourself above everyone, which doesn't seem to be a good match.

Would or did?
Would means you think and you do not know for sure.

Did means you actually ran a Dmax with said rods at least on the dyno to simulate passes then evaluated there condition.

Tech is actual data from testing you have done. Not what you think would happen but have not tested.;) That is Hypothesis.

Big difference.

I don’t in general have an issue with using an aluminum rod other than the limited service life. Frankly I am doubtful they would live 100 passes. But I don’t know. Going from a converter to a clutch will not save a bunch of rotating weight. To handle the power you need to run 8s and lower your looking at minimum a 10" 3 disk. Even if you go to a composite flywheel you’re still going to be over 80lbs. I run a 3 disk centrifugal set up now and it is almost 120lbs. But that is an all steel 11" setup. Rotating weight is good in my application


As for moderating this thread.
This a competition website. This is not grandpa’s truck towing forum. Most of us compete regularly with are trucks some at a national level. We have strong thoughts about what it takes to do what we want be because we have tried lots of things. The free and open sharing of thoughts and data helps us all. It can and will get heated. But preaching of unconfirmed hypothesis will not get you the respect you want. We can see right thru it.

If you have a problem with a post or thread you are no different than anyone else. Click report and we will get an email. Most likely the mods as group will discuss it that than take or not take action as we as a group see fit.

Your reputation is earned. The one thing you truly have earned. Threatening us to take this tech and leave is amusing. Go for it! As MikeL put it “we do not need you”. You’re here because you need us. Use of this site is a privilege not a right. Straighten up or face the consequences
