Anybody know this truck ?

That's what I told him. As long as he can stage, and get a good launch... But he's scared, lol.
 
I've bought 2 of my 3 Cummins from the same lot where he bought that one.
Good dealer. They have sweet trucks all the time at good prices.
Just a South Texas thing I guess. Lol.
 
So is 1200hp the new number 12V rods will reliably hold? :hehe: Better yet with compounds and some gas?!

That truck seems like a steal at that price though! Especially if it runs pretty well already and there's nothing leaking anymore.
 
Is that place out of Liberty Hill, TX? I've seen that place has a damn good selection of trucks.

Makes me feel better, because I used shot peened, heat treated, micro polished England rods in my 6.4 build, and my target is around 1k.
Truck should be back together in a few weeks.

Nope. Right here in Corpus Christi, TX.
Discount Motor Co.
They got a nice arse 2013 right now, sitting on 46'x19.5" that would be a bad arse beach truck... I've been eyeballing it. Lol ?.
 
IDK ? Would be nice to know for a fact. They haze pretty good at idle... But fuel like a SOB.
 
I think they are 150% overs. Their apex 10's are only 175% over. F8's are probably good for 1500hp. Flux 4's are good for 1000.
 
Ok gentlemen, this thing has a cracked turbine housing. And it appears that the wastegate was welded directly to the turbine housing ?
Any advice on how to proceed ? And anybody got a turbine housing for sale ?

How bout an identification on the housing ? Anybody ?

Looks to be a .90 if I'm reading it right...

So I'd assume it's an 83/.90!

Tell him to get an 83/1.0 and run no gate.

Did the manifold have any washing or just the gasket?

He dropped every bit of coin he had on this truck, and then got laid off the following week...
So, I believe a new (larger) housing with a manifold wastegate cap would be the best bet for him right now.
 
That’s Randy Strey’s old truck. Raced it in 10.90 or 11.90 index’s I believe. Use to see it all the time about 3 years ago at nhrda events.
