CJ, tell her she put the BBQ on the wrong date! Then you can come up. Of course, you won't be able to go back... ... ... . :-laf

 

[CJNielson]

Well the BBQ is my fault. It is a friend of mine from college that is having it. First time I will see him since school, and his car is fully functional. Normally conveniently his car needs fixing when we visit.

May bring another one to the sooty side for the 25th! Good kid from Rochester who's got a sharp looking 04. 5 QC 4x4. We keep wrecking perfectly good people... and fixing perfectly good trucks...



I may do some fishin in Lake Como on the 26th if anyone wants to join in... Don't be surprised to see me show up dragging a boat behind me.

 

[PToombs]

I hope you realize, the dyno is the 1st? The party on the 25th was cancelled for that?

 

[DZink24]

Oh. Missed that.

 

[Diesel Dummie]

it ok dan we know!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

 

[PToombs]

Now he's gonna have to go beg, plead and kiss butt to get her to change the "play date" so he can go! :-laf



Poor Dan!

 

[DZink24]

No no, I knew that the dyno was the 1st, I missed the part about the meeting on the 25th being cancelled.



One of the diesel mags in Barnes and Noble had a story on dyno days, the what, how and why, and it said somethng along the lines of a young whipper snapper who comes in with his shiny new truck, with all the gadgets, methane, nitrous, ect, that the kid is all proud of, and then in comes the old 12V Cummins in a beat up old Ram that tosses down 1,000 HP, then promptly goes back to the farm to do chores. Couldn't help not think of you, Petey!

Not that my truck is all that old but the reminds me of a guy I was talking to at work. I told him everything I had done to my truck and what I dyno'd at. The guy says to me, "my truck does that out of the box. " I said "know the difference between RWHP, and BHP?" He says "nope. " The convo abruptly ended, he'd never understand.

Speaking of RWHP, how much does the dyno cost up that way?

 

[PToombs]

Dan, that's funny, farm truck! :-laf Now, you snot nosed little punk, who you callin old? #@$%!

:-laf:-laf





CJ, it's gonna be $75 for 3 runs. If you walk in off the street he charges $150 for 4 runs, or roughly an hour. At least that's what I understand from Chad, who set it up.

 

[Diesel Dummie]

Well got the clutch in today, all went well except for the transmission cross member what a PIA, why dodge could not come up with a better set up, but all is well its in , a little stiffer than stock but its nice, when you let it out its in, not non of this slipping crap to take off, now im ready for the dyno!!!!!!

 

[mrsnow]

What clutch did you put in?

 

[Diesel Dummie]

Valair full feramic, its doing pretty good only got about 50 miles on it and its seated up to level 4x5 on the juice, was told it would take a little while to fully seat, ut all is well so far and im happy, just hope i can get it broke in enough to hit the rollers.

 

[PToombs]

Where is everybody? Sleeping for the winter already? :-laf

 

[Turbo Tim 1]

Where tha heck have you been, you didn't even answer my last PM Is it snowing up in Syracuse yet? Oh, and to answer your question, some of us have to work for a living!

 

[PToombs]

Where have I been? Watching kids! I can't type 2 words before they try to kill each other! How long before they're 21?

I didn't know you wanted an answer! I answered the new one too, happy now?



I know how you work, that's when you get computer time! :-laf

 

[Turbo Tim 1]
