The 6.7 dyno'd at 982. That was with 8 deg. less timing than 5.9's best run. I wanted it to have a bit better bottom end power and tow a bit cooler so it's timed at 22 deg right now.

If you are getting rid of the crew cab give it to me. I'll make it really easy for you.

I would KILL for that truck

i dont think i could part with it-my wife and kids wouldnt let me ! however without the cummins it would only be good to look at. i tow alot with it and the old gasssers i built for it were so hard on fuel and gutless compered to the cummins it was impracticle to drive.
