New engine and twins

Short mention of the fellows involved in my new engine and twins.
Tim Barber built me a custom CR engine, skinned it down and rebuilt from the oil pan up..started this in April and had it running yesterday. Throughout the entire process Tim was always avaliable, gave me constant updates and gave me plenty of options. The engine sounds great, idles very smooth...side by side with an 07 5.9, it sounds smoother.
Nathan Wright handled the air side of things and once again built a precision kit, again he was always there to keep me grounded!
Don M took care of the fuel requirments, valve train and the long stick.

Right on Rob!

Tim seems like a great guy that has always impressed me with his knowledge and honesty. If I didn't have Malcolm in my back yard I would have Tim build my stuff.

Just curious, but how is the fuel knock with the big injectors?

Congats man!

Hey Rob,

Did you drop the compression?
I'm going to build a spare motor and am toying around with a bit less squeeze.

Hope your better half lets your truck out to play at BD!

Compression is lower...

As for my wife, I have been told that I'm not allowed to dyno this year/////we will see if I can work some magic...as for now BD is on in my mind but not in hers>>>
