Good to see you TClemens. You have a nice ride yourself.



Could anyone even see throught the smokecloud on RT. 83 when we took off?





Added by edit - The really ironic thing is that I was on my way to get my emmisions test. I passed with flying colors (Smarty on Zero) Then blew a big smoke cloud on the way out. :-laf

Kevin WHO???? Dude what's up!?

 

[TClemens]

That was funny people thought we were nuts, when you went to Lees to get the emissions done you spoke with my buddy Tim who is also a TDR member, his name is MillerTim, we dont live too far from ya, im right off of LAKE st in Vernon, maybe a trip to coffee nights is in order (even though I think they are all racist) allways crackn jokes about my black truck and posting pics with me and David Hasslehof

saw a dark red/maroon 2nd gen dually today on rt3 (newfield st) crossing 66 (washington st) this afternoon, saw the tdr wticker in the back window, and saw some smoke.

Kevin WHO???? Dude what's up!?

Actually Tim, I've developed a nice relationship with your truck.



You see I've seen it twice. (Once without facial makeup :-laf The other time with all it's facial features. ) Each time I saw it you were nowhere to be found.



Got the Garrett Stage II installed With an ATS Manifold on Monday and worked on a boost leak on Saturday up at Massdiesel's.



How is (was) the Cape of Cod?

 

[TORQUE THIS]

What was the source of the boost leak?

 

[Mactruck]

First was the lower turbo tube was not seated corrrectly against the new turbo when it was installed.

Second was Intake Gasket - Towards the front slight leak. Replaced that as well as the intake heater gaskets.



Was using those Aluminum Gaskets from Haisley. I did not have good luck with them so I took it back to the stock intake gasket and an upgraded Heater gasket.

 

[TORQUE THIS]

I have those gaskets also, re-thinking it also, I believe mine are leaking also. Shoot me a PM about the turbo...

That would be sseifert. He is building a SICK Hemi Cuda, I'm sure we'll see it very soon.

Jim, he is going to help with cutting the head, I helped him when he did his truck, he helped me do mine.

He is my former boss also...

I passed a Silver 3500 dually pulling a double car ramp trailer on I-395 North just south of exit 89, I was the red dually with the service body in the hammer lane, would have been about 2:45pm

Saw a BLACK 2500 on H2 rims on rt 34 today with a 6" stack coming out of the bed

I didnt see it for long, because it took off and limited visibility on the eastbound lanes to approx. 30 ft :-laf
