[Stomp]

Ok Brad that sounds good. You must be sponsering me then right?



I guess its ok to dream.

It was a fun event. It was nice to get some time away from turning wrenches and kick back and B. S. It kind of made the sport fun again for me. When you do it for a living it starts to become like any other job. I'm glad I got to "play" some.



Last time I ran on PDR's dyno with a single HX40 I ran 446hp and 1050tq. This time I ran 482 with compound turbos. Torque wasnt checked because of my tach. issue. The turbos still need some "tuning" to get max hp out of them. So far I've seen up to a 75hp difference in power by just messing with the wastegate. New injectors are also in the works. 500hp + is just a few hours of tuning away. But before then - I have to fix charging system issues, a inop. tach, heater core, some wiring... . the list goes on. Spare time is hard to come by.



I would like to congratulate Jeremy for is work. Great run! It almost makes me want to add some "squeeze" but I think I will just stick to #2 only. There were some other good running rigs too.



I would like to thank everyone involved in this event happen. Also, everyone for coming. I am looking forward to the next one.

I'd like to thank all of you that made it, you all helped make it a good event.



Stomp, you are right, Brad needs to step up to the plate and sponsor you... I have an expertimental cam you need to try, along with a ported head that we have managed to get some serious flow numbers out of... . let me see, how much more of Brads money can I help ya spend Oo.

 

[BPonci]

I wish i could sponsor Stomp,but unfortunatly all my money goes to CANADA. :{ :{ I wish somebody loved me... ... ... :{ :{ I can barley afford to feed my family thanks to someone we all know. . :-laf :-laf ... ... ...come back on that old man. .

 

[RonA]

I'd feel sorry for you guys except for the fact that you're both 120+ hp ahead of me. I've decided that by the end of the year I'm going to try and have 1/2 of Jim Fulmers HP. If I make it I'll donate some old turbos and stuff to the "Get a 1st gen to 600hp fund".

[Stomp]

Can I be first on the list Ron. I am going to need all the help I can get. To bad you couldnt make it up you could have gave me a run for the junk yard dog award. :-laf :-laf :-laf

I'm a thinkin' I want twins after seeing the gains others are getting. Plus they would help clean up my WFO smoke.

SO, with that being said, I guess I'll need to start saving pennies and dimes.

 

[RonA]

Stomp.

Talk to brad and see if he thinks you should go the head and cam route or the twins route. I'd like to see a good running first gen even if it isn't mine. I think I can help a little with parts.

What is this "OR" stuff? Think "AND"!! Head, Cam AND twins!! Oo. Oo. Oo.



Carl (from the depths of just under 300RWHP)

 

[RonA]

Carl,

Stomp is going to be real happy when he finds out that you've offered to help finance the 600 hp 1st gen project.

RonA

 

[CDegner]

Hey Ron, NO WHERE in my post did I offer to hel finance HIS truck! I have enough expenses for my own! Somehow I've gotta come up with the cash to get the transmission/tc worked out so I can put more HP to the ground.



I remember when I started this and said "all I want to do is get to 200RWHP". Famous last words. Now all I want to do is figure out how to get 350 to the ground.



Carl

 

[RonA]

Sorry Carl.

I get confused easily. When I saw the little green things jumping up and down, I thought green cash was trying to jump out of your wallet and into the B. U. S. T fund. That stands for Blow Up Stomps Truck.

Old man..... you young punks these days... I donno... . used to be in the "old" days, youth used to respect their elders, now look at the state of things. I think I need to have a chat with your dad & we'll come up with an appropriate way to deal with you... ... . just remember when your truck doesn't start tonight, I'm a thousand miles away and had nothing to do with it

 

[paccool]

:-laf :-laf :-laf



Piers, if it doesn't start, you will really have him wondering!

 

[Piers]

It's already been arranged..... seems one old man was talking to another old man & while Brad was on a road test his start/stop soleniod became unplugged :--)

 

[RonA]

I have always been told that age and treachery will always triumph over youth and skill.

[Stomp]

And So It Begins

Ron I talked to Brad and I will send you a pm in a little while. The Blow Up Stomps Pickup Project Begins. Anyone else want to get in on the B. U. S. T. fund are more than welcome. :-laf :-laf

It runs!!!!

Finally got the head back on and tuned up, but I haven't taken it to the max,yet. Still need to go through Piers' torquing sequence. I want to thank Piers again for getting us on the road. Even lent me a spare part, that I had broke. Eric

 

[BCaldwell]

Eric.



Glad to hear you got her back together and everything is ok. Take care and we hope to see you again soon.
