[JLEONARD]

OK. . maybe I fibbed a bit... . I want my turbo mods to get done!!

edit... ok I though of something else... . I want to teach my 2 1/2 year old grandaughter to be able to properly tie a cleat, and steer the dinghy with the engine tiller. I think that's a good start to becomming a good boater. But this has nothing to do with trucks.

I'll save changing injectors untill next year when she can apply the proper torque.

 

[Headshot zod]

well... ..... if all goes well... ... .



I want to beat some records out at Bonneville and El Mirage. I want to hit the 130 mph and 150 mph clubs. None of this sissy 1/4 mile stuff. And pulling's not for me either. So give me 4 miles to accelerate on and 3 to slow down with.



So... .....



Dear Santa,



Your biggest fan would like to request a few parts this year. I know last year I asked for a job (you didn't come through again but I am the forgiving type) As I am still unemployed and this is putting a crimp in the racing budget. I went to Canada to get my truck and I didn't whine about all the screwups encountered going to the DMV in Kamsack Saskatchewan and the stupid one day layover in Manitoba that the US government made me go through. I didn't complain about the screwups in Customs in Pembina North Dakota and the "special trips" afforded to me by getting to go through Customs twice again in Newark. Yeah twice..... Check that list of yours. It was in the unmarked government building without a street address. Thank you for allowing me 4 special trips to my state capital so I could register it. Just thankful I didn't have to sleep with the NJ Governor. I've been a good boy and not polluting by using 100% Biodiesel whenever possible.



So this is what I need... ...



1) A job... . the Xanadu Project down in the Meadowlands would be nice, the lawsuits are finished and we beat the Enviro-nazis. Its going to be a multiyear project... That would be nice



2) Carbon fiber driveshaft



3) Goodyear Land Speed Racing Tires



4) 2nd gen head extrud-a-honed and Swain Coated



5) one of those lightweight frontends



6) A lightweight crankshaft like you gave Mr Banks a few years ago.



7) Ken Huff spun aluminum LSR rims



8) quick change rear w/1. 85-to-1 gears



9) PDR stuff to go into, around and under #4



10) some mach 1. 5's would be nice too



11) Call Rip about an 4" exhaust but tell him I need it in stainless. I found a really cool Denox Catalyst for my exhaust but I need to spray urea/ammonia just before the catalyst for it to work. SO IT HAS TO BE STAINLESS



Call me if there is more room in the sled there a few other things I might need.



Your biggest fan... ... ...

After trip to PDR. Better brakes. Maybe a newer front axle with larger brakes. Or double discs.

 

[bgilbert]

Well since we're wishing, Santa, I'd like to have Philip's truck, bomb it with PDR goodies and DTT- awesome W350 X-cab, 518 AND 3. 07 gears. Or then if no, for my truck, clutch, nv4500 or 5600, PDR goodies such as hx40 or B1, new head, studs, yada yada yada...

Just got my birthday present today, a shiney new set of front and rear Skyjacker Softride springs. 2. 5" for the front, 6" for the rear, no more blocks Oo. . Don't really know what I'm gettin for christmas. In '05 I want to rebuild and install my HX-35 and install a 3. 5" exhaust and maybe buy some steel 8" wheels to replace the 10" aluminum jobs. And some stuff for the samurai too, but I won't bore anyone here with it.

Santa

Well I already have my twins in so that is taken care of. So let’s see... ... Well I got in that fender bender so you could tell the insurance company that my pickup is worth allot more than what I think they are going to try to offer me. Please don’t let them total it there is still allot of life left in the old girl. I don’t want to have to deal with a salvage title. Let me get at least 500hp on #2 so we all can have a new goal for the first gens with the ve pump. Also you might want to sprinkle a little special powder on my drive terrain so it holds all of the power since it is mostly stock. I know I am asking allot, but if you couldhelp me out this it would mean a great deal to me. Oh yeah I almost forgot a PDR cam and intercooler would be nice too.

[Old Smoky]

Ball Joints! Oo.



Zod,

You don't need all of that silly gasoline racing stuff to go fast. There is rumor of a "stock" first gen that 'ill do 137mph.

If you are putting those on your 93, post a pic so we can see how they look installed.

Lugnuts arrived today. I am anxiously awaiting time to get my tires switched over. I have had a set of Prime star pattern 5 spokes on my dually since 1995 (before Ford started putting this style on everything). I finally found a set of wheels that were different than everyone elses that I could afford!!!
