The Beast Is The Most Savage Machine I Have Ever Been In. I Have Not Posted For A While Because She Had Problems When We First Put Her Together. I Got Stuck Up In Northern California With No Internet So I Could Not Ask You Intelligent Folks For Help. I Fixed It Though. The First Plug Blew Out The Back Of The Motor Within Ten Minutes. We Put A Plate Over That One Then Busted The Plug Next To The Turbo. We Put A Plate Over That One And Epoxyed The Other Two On The Motor. After The Second One I Messed With The Thermostat Which Is What 90% Of The People I Talked To Said To Do. I Just Drove My Truck 400 Miles And It Is A Mean Beast That Will Break The Tires Loose On The Freeway Thats Right Dually Wheels Breaking Loose On The Freeway. I Have Been Hitting It Hard With The Downloader On Tow Or Performance And I Do Not Use My Edge Box Anymore. Got A Stage 3 Predator To Install To. Its Insane How Much Power There Is I Dont Even Want To Put It On Larry. My Truck Will Not Go Over 180 And It Only Made It There A Few Times Over 400 Miles Avg Eng Temp Was 150-160 Which Is A Little Low But Not That Bad. I Have To Mess With The Thermostat A Little More. Im So Glad That Its Fixed And Now I Can Have Fun. The Leveling Kit And The Nittos Are Looking Good. Someone Help Me Download A Photo On Here So You Guys Can See. Im Going To A Huge Dyno Event In Southern California In A Few Days So I Will Get To See How Much Power I Got. Well I Will Talk To You Fellas Later.

Not that you are pleased with it or anything
Try to keep the transmission in it long enough to make at least one 1/4 mile run with it!!
I'd love to see the Sacramento Raceway diesel track record beat by a dually!!

No Race Records Will Be Set With A Dually But Maybe Some Nor Cal Dynos Might Get Thrashed. I Will Get Some Pictures Up Tomorrow When It Is Light Out. I Have A Digital Camera A Friend Let Me Borrow. The Clutch Is Slipping 30% Allready And I Hear A New Small Noise I Think When I Shift Out Of 2nd. Im So Happy With Her I Never Thought You Could Get 8000lbs To Move Like That. Ill Tell You One Thing My Brother And All These Chevys Down In So Cal With There Efi Live Better Watch Out Because The Beast Is Coming Out To Show These So Cal Guys What Dodge Power Is About. What Do You Guys Think About Driving My Truck 140-170eng Temp Untill Tuesday When I Can Redo The Thermostat.

Mid 12's are not unheard of in Chapter#21 with a six speed dually as long as you can keep a clutch in it!!
Not quite record breaking but pretty dern respectable!!

That Is Very Very Respectable To Say The Least Out Of A 6sp Dually. I Think Im Going To Upgrade To A 3850 Or The 4200 Not Sure. I Will Figure It Out After I Dyno. I Know When I Slipped My Clutch I Was Not Tuned For Over 650hp So How Much Hp Or Torque Does It Take To Slip A 3600 30%.

Pretty easy to over drive the clutch on these things so I've been told!! I have an auto (even worse).
I'd have to defer to my clutch drivers stay tuned! Check with mulercr88 he could probably give you the real deal.
Where are you headed in So Cal?
