You Know You Are a Dieselhead When...

[LOtero]

when you can have a conversation with another dieselhead and confuse the crap out of other people in the room.



"thinking about a comp or tst pmax3 but some 150 horse sticks would be good. but Id need a 40 or htb2 or phat shaft 66. well course thats after a dtt or ats or even just a converter and valve body. dont want to starve the vp so a fass and a big line kit with banjos would be needed too. "

Mine hardly ever comes on in the winter. :-laf :-laf :-laf



You know it's summer in the desert when the fan clutch engages as soon as you start the engine and then disconnects after the truck "warms up".

[LOtero]

your mom tells you "dont drive faster than your guardien angel can fly" and your smart a** remark is "well mines got a bombed cummins too, so she can keep up. " :-laf

 

[WDixon27]

you are annoyed when driving a gasser and can't smoke tailgaters, or people who cut you off, or joggers hogging way too much road, or those goobers in suits on bikes, or the guy that been on the corner begging for money for the last three months... ..... :-laf

When you buy your wife, "Diesel Plus Plus' Fragrance by Diesel for Mother's Day. Then, you are disappointed because it smells like flowers , not diesel, or even Bio-diesel. Moose00

 

[DZink24]

when riding in a gasser you have to roll down the window when riding along side a straight piped dodge or tractor-trailer... . :-laf

Yup, I did that in my car, as about a '99 or so went past me, on the expressway she punched it, spooled up, ... that was the straw that broke the camels back. . $34,000 later... see my sig. .

I'd bet that 90% of Powerstroke owners don't know the engine is made by International.

[jltcasper3]

You know your a diesel head when:



You see a strip mall along the road and see the sign diesel, and turn around because you think theirs some new diesel truck store but you find out it's some cloathing brand store.



When you have read all 15 pages of this forum.



When ups drops packages off on a weekly basis from diesel web sites.

 

[Moose Truck]

When you put on Convex mirrors on to see your Stack's Exhaust

 

[JGrefenstette]

... . when you get into a gasser that is idling and try to start it.

done that number one two many times :-laf

 

[1smoknC]

[LOtero]

Never owned a ford but still know international designed the powerstroke.

So True

Yeah, there's a contractor here on base that has 3 indentical 04 Power Strokes and they all have CAT plates on the front... The other day the crews where out BSin' on the side of the road so I thought I's show how a real diesel sounds. I was in a 20MPH zone 3rd gear singing about 1900/2000 RPMs, SPS 62 singing DEEP through that 5 inch turbo back stright piped and stacked. One guy even gave me a thumbs up. Sometimes I guess we can't pick what we drive at work, but at least there's one guy in that group with good taste. :-laf By the way I have a stainless plate with a Blue "C"ummins emblem with red "Turbo Diesel" under that.
