Competition The things I find on a Saturday afternoon.......

[Sled Puller]

Was traveling about in the southwest snowy hills of Pennsylvania, yesterday, when I noticed a few Diesels parked next to an old garage.



Took a look inside, and found some BOMBing going on.



Turbo replacement, on a Maryland race truck. Oo.

 

[Sled Puller]

And the results: :-laf

 

[jwilliams3]

Is that an hx35? or Joe's 799. 999hp turbo?

 

[Bob Wagner]

Pro52 and results?

 

[Forrest]

What's the rag under the turbo ... oil drain leak?

 

[ob1kobi]

Not any real results yet, still breaking it in.....

 

[ToolManTimTaylor]

LOL @ Ted :-laf



What the hell is Dawg doin in the background up there behind all those pushin'. Kinda looks like he snuck somethin' under the tire and wants to see what will happen

 

[HoleshotHolset]

That shop looks familiar...



Nevermind Scott - where's Jeff in these pictures? I know he was down there...

Forrest, The charger is not the real secret to the truck. . the rag is really covering up the true performace enhancements. I'm sorry Ted, i can't keep it a secret anymore. The charger does not feed the engine with air. We have bio-engineered four gerbils and a hamster to power the new Ted-Rocket. The charger feeds the rodents with the required air so they can hop in the cage wheels which are directly attached to the flywheel. The torque converter is actually a pacing wheel to keep the critters in cadence. Unfortuately, the gerbils have proven to be a bit of a tuning issue, as their discharge chute oils down the tires, and the hamster cannot figure out how to put the retaining pin in the trailer ramp... sorry bout that Ted.



Matt, Ithat is my elbow in the picture. While the truck was being relocated to the lift side of the bay, I was tapping a kidney.

 

[DHRA]

That was a blast. Andy, thanks for inviting us, sorry I brought Gene. :-laf

It was great to see Ted, half of Jeff, Andy, and Ed and kind of nice to see the rest of you. I hope everyone got a DieselPower! t-shirt. You never know what goodies I may have in the truck. Can't wait to do it again, this time I'll shoot straight over and skip picking up Gene, I promise!

 

[Sled Puller]

Skip picking up me? If it wasn't for the 2 sled pullers there, it would have been dull indeed!



Face it, a shiny truck that has blown more headgaskets than the TDR combined, and a few drag racers, is a pretty lame party!



I did learn the Sebek motto, of build it, paint it red, park it, cover it, is a family tradition. :-laf

Now that's funny. . I don't care who you are... that's funny!!! :-laf :-laf

Jeff,



No worries about the trailer ramp, it was a simple mistake and I should have checked it anyhow. We found it right around mile marker 68.

 

[ToolManTimTaylor]

sorry I brought Gene. :-laf

I think there is a FTD Bouquet for that now :-laf





So wait who's truck blew drag racers?? :-laf :-laf

Jeff: ... that's a very flattering shot of your elbow. Saturday afternoon... isn't that the "Dude, there isn't a safe pizza or donut in the whole freakin' shop... " day of the week?



Since when do left coast chargers bolt onto right coast trucks? Isn't that going to affect the discharge of the flux capacitor?



Matt

[Straight6Jeff]

MTY, thanks, I think that is my best side of elbow... .



Saturdays are still my free eating day. This past saturday was defintiely a protein bar day. Of course it started off with a huge breakfast with all the sides.



The cahrger just had to be reversed to bolt up on the other coast. We would have been seriously porked if we were below the equator. Thing would spin in the wrong direction
