ND/MN/SD Get Together and Dyno Day

[JasonCzerak]

I apparently double booked this weekend for a huge poker night. I will be installing the fluiddampr and new gauges plus transmission fluid change this Saturday morning, would of been a good thing to do while up there I bet?

 

[BILLVO]

Hope some of you Minnesota guys show. I was looking forward to meeting some of you.

I have a guy I work with coming up with an 05 6. 0 powerstroke, with nothing but an Edge comp on it. No exhaust or intake changes either.



Jerry are we going to meet at oasis at 8 ish?



Dave bowed out too.



Edit: Ford guy will come, Ford 6. 0 will not. :-laf

Great weather for once....

It will be a change to have a nice day without any snow or strong winds.



Bill... . I will try to be at Oasis around 7 to get something to eat and try to leave around 8 or earlier. That work?



For anyone interested, I will be bringing some pickup accessories from a family member that sold there 2002 Dodge and gave me the accessories to sell (estate thing). Included are 8' putco box rails/pipes, Access tonnue cover (long box), and a edge EZ. The putco bars and tonnue cover should fit any 94-2002 long box. The EZ should fit any 2001 - 2002 HO. I really do not want to bring this stuff back to Bismarck with me so make an offer.



We will shoot to be at Mikes around 11 to get things ready and hope to start sometime shortly after..... noonish for sure.



We will have some food (barbecue, chips, etc) late in the day to help get everyone home.

Thanks for attending.....

Once again, we topped the previous event. There was probably over 70 people at one time midday. Mike worked franticly to get the test engine setup to run on the engine dyno only to find out a couple small injection parts were needed. We dynoed pretty steady from noon till 6pm on the chassis dyno. I belive it was around 15 trucks give or take. A few spent several runs tweaking things. First for me to see a laptop run the truck (Duramax) and it made impressive power for stock turbo and heads.



The dyno played no favorites this time. Some were please, some were disapointed. High torque went to a Duramax and high hp stayed with Dodge one more year. Where were the Fords????



Thanks again for attending and making it another successful event.

ps... . if someone does not post the numbers, I will get them.

 

[MStenvold]

If I can find the numbers I will post them up but I think I might have lost my paper! It was a great time like always and hopefully next year my truck will be all done up and will make it on the rollers. It will be there quiet a bit this summer though!

I am interested in the numbers, if someone could post them. This is the first year i missed, i had i prior comintment. Sounds like fun was had by all. Hopefully Mike will have a sled pulling day sometime this summer.

 

[JJW_ND]

I will get the #s

I will check with JohnE and get the #s posted.



Mike faxed me a graph from the 06 5. 9 with the P-pump that he work so hard to run on the engine dyno for us that day. The run was a baseline with nothing but fuel and the pump set at its "stock" lowest fueling setting. I think he mentioned something about 300ccs.



It made 692HP at 2700 rpms and 1490 ftlbs at 1900. He was running a BD supper B single turbo and the rest "stock" (if you consider a 2006 with a p-Pump stock). EGTs peaked at 1400 at 3200 rpms. Because Mike has the where with all and acess to lots of "parts" I think we will hear of big numbers out of the experiment.

The numbers on that link are not right. The numbers listed for me are from last years dyno day. It shows the right mods but wrong numbers.
