Ran on the Rollers Today

and made 595ft/lbs and 265hp. I thought it was pretty good for all the stuff I have put on it. 4" exhaust, Coolertubz intake horn, 56mm comp wheel 16cm housing, 1.5 turns on the screw, stock sticks. When they lugged it down to 1500 rpm the hottest it got was 950f smoke free...Time for more fuel.

I'm on my second getrag but the first one I killed was my fault. I towed to hard and heavy on a really hot day and burned up the bearings. I can slip the Sachs clutch under the right conditions but it seems to be holding okay for now. I'm going to slowly feed it more fuel until the egts get out of hand while towing. I towed a 6000lb trailer yesterday though some somewhat steep hills and the most I could get then was 1000f and I believe thats right because the coolant temp never rises like it would with high egt's. I also get a good puff of smoke before the turbo lights and its clean after that.
