Things might just get very interesting! Need to start a poll on who will be the first to go too far and blow up their Cummins.
Can you say 'Big Blue' boys and girls?

RJ
Will his name have to change to "Big Blew"?

If this is the same guy over on comp D then wouldn't he have to get over 500hp first before he risks blowing his stuff up? lol

Right now I'm really glad Rob has a 20T press... the dang timing gear on the cam broke 2 of my pullers.

I'm going to keep installing other people's cams before I stick one in the '05 (think I need a clutch first!)

Thanks again Rob!

I stabbed the cam and we called it a day, so we can enjoy reassembly!

Well team XLR8R pulled in FF last night! Lots and lots of people down there and they are supposed to do it all over again tonight... Lots of the same tractors from the alvarado pull. Was fun, once again I was chicken at gear selection... pulled 3rd low instead of 4th... Just bounced off 3800 RPM down the whole track... 280ish feet... May pull again tonight and see if 4th gear will work..

Cool!

With those tires on this dirt I don't think 4th low would even faze your clutch - and you could sure use the wheelspeed.

Yep no question 4th would have been better.. was nervous because the track seemed to stick a lot of trucks and they couldn't get the wheels to slip... Others just dug a hole at the line and made nice holes at the start...

Oh well.. learn a little bit more each time I guess...
