Dialing-in the new spinny-things (which added 200lbs all inclusive). I'm slow at the moment. Still working on it. 
Broke all the shafts in the 518 similarly, a while back now. |
Edit, was supposed to be Grey truck, and VE pump. Lol
Cool deal. I always loved the Cummins engine.
Started with a tiny 62 single that had us in the 8.30 range. Switched to a 71 single bit a bit of spray to end up at 7.40s. Then we hung a 94mm S500 under the 71/73 and built a 13mmp pump and it was hard to improve on e.t. it just broke something every damn pass, made 125 pounds of boost but it was a bust and waste of time with that trans/convertor combo, I drove it 1 time and eased it through in the 7.20s but it was just not going to work. Back then if he would have just listened and let me help him switch it to my 400 combo we would have been in the 5s. Black truck then was 6teens but...I only ran a single 71 with a measly 60 ish # boost
