Holbrow, do you know Randy Menter? He lives up there, works with me.

Stacks, I got lotsa ideas! Run the pipe under frame to edge of box, up thru in corner. Use box steel or pipe, to go across. Keep it up high enough for plywood.

I know Randy. Thanks for the info, we need to get together some time to go over your ideas, they sound good. THe box steel or pipe is for support but how do you split the exh. pipe , I don't think a Y would work that close to the side of the box.

The box IS the pipe! It's what I am doing to mine, but I have a gap between cab and bed. It will work in the bed, Just need to think it thru. If I showed you, you would go; "Oh, yeah!" Maybe we can meet up some time, if it stops snowing!

I'm pretty close but I'll be down in Albany working tomorrow, let me know when you come up this way again.

 

[PToombs]

Jeez! I been on 3 diesel sites several times today and nobody is around! :{ Where did you guys go? South for the weekend? Nobody invited me? What the heck! I don't luv you guys no more! :-{}

 

[Turbo Tim 1]

Some of us have to "work" for a living you know! :-laf

 

[PToombs]

Hi Tim! I knew you were workin', I saw the other post! Busy day? Anything exciting? Nuclear overheat?

I had the green monster running today, had to plow around it. It was getting buried.

Hear anything on the local? DD must be on the road, hasn't been on in a couple days. I PM'ed JR and Greg from the Meet and Eat, didn't hear back yet.

Don't mind me, hyper city! Oo.

Dude cut down on the sugar and coffee :-laf Nothing really happening at work, we're shutdown this weekend but I try to limit the internet usage.



Do you miss the green beast? I used last nights snow storm as an excuse to drive the dually to work instead of the Honda, I plugged it in tonight so I guess I'll have to drive it tomorrow too.



We should try to plan the spring fling with something else, of course we have delivery coming the very end of May????? We should keep an eye out for truck pulls at the Syracuse Fairgrounds too, I think NTPA pulls there and has a diesel class.

 

[PToombs]

Shoot yeah I miss it! The gasser I'm driving is peein' me off! Every day it gets 1 step closer to a 4bt conversion. (like I have the time for another project! :{ )

I didn't realize you had a Honda! Hasn't it been cold riding to work? :-laf :-laf

I've been thinking about the spring thing, I keep it in mind that you have to drive 3 hrs + 1 hour to Cortland or where ever. So far, you are the farthest away, unless DBogo comes.

I didn't realize there were pulls at the fairgrounds, good idea!

The delivery thing, it took me an extra second to figure it out! So at the end of May you'll be looking for any excuse to get out of the house?

 

[Diesel Dummie]

Well im home fellas until mon, but if you got o the other site you will find the app to join the chapter and the rules, and spread the word.

 

[PToombs]

'bout time you showed up! Never leave the kids home alone! Know what kind of trouble I started?

By the way, my wife is NOT on the phone, like right now!

By the way, I got JR, he's in. I just PM'ed another prospect too.

We gotta join the local too? Rules? you just took the fun out of it!

 

[ToolManTimTaylor]

It's a Shame the NETDP has all that Ny space goin' to waste :-laf



Toombs, I hear ya on the Gasser deal. The Chevy tracker NEEDS a twin turbo 4bt like no other! Problem in that mine is so rusted out that I may just torque shear the rust right off the flippin' thing :-laf

 

[PToombs]

Not for long! I thought about going and signing up, my wife is going to kill me. I belong to 3 diesel sites now, mights well make it 4!

Don't be afraid! :-laf What are you? A chicken? :-laf Who wears the pants in that house?

 

[Turbo Tim 1]

By the way, DBogo is closer than me by 15-20 minutes

 

[PToombs]

We both wear pants, butt hers are bigger than mine. I did it anyway! Just waiting for my spamblocker report so I can get the activation link!



I looked at the map after I posted, saw that he is farther south.

Well, at least I'll know what happened when you disappear, if she ever sees this you'll end up on a milk carton :-laf

 

[Turbo Tim 1]

Hey Pete somebody is calling you Here

 

[PToombs]

That's probably the ONLY place anybody will ever see me again!



Yeah, I was there earlier today. I even mentioned you, alter ego!
