yeah a deserted road, its in Mexico people!

i did install some DVs in that truck of the video,

he has everything half ton, except the rear axel is from a 3/4...8 lug nuts.

the thing pulls hard, makes 45 psi boost on the 66 turbo and 435 injectors.

but he sure cant launch, i pulled him by 3 truck lenghts from a dead start. and finished the 1/4 before he did. both 2wd, same size and same type of tires

Wish you were a bit closer than Mexico. I'd line up a 1/4 truck with you. Same thing just 1st gen. Nice truck though.

I don't see why all the "doggin" on the front end? THe only difference between a 1500 and my 3500 2wd is the springs and and I would assume the shocks, but the tie rods, ball joints, A-arm bushings and A-arms are all the exact same (same part # even)

I just had the ball joints on my truck replaced while they were doing a 1500 next to mine and the same parts were used for each truck. Just change out the springs if you don't like the sag...

What are EGT's like with that combo? Looks like the smoke clears pretty darn good.

The Egt's are about 1700 when its on full throtlle and when driving normal at 70-75 mph they are about 800-900 degrees..and its a single turbo modified by PDR. (schwitzer s300 66/14)
