This followed me home Monday afternoon. Had a wide steel gray stripe down the side of the cab. Sharp!

Soon as I get chance to get on computer I'll post pics of the rig on post. It looks to have a king size bed in the sleeper.

Thought they came rated at 500 hp from the factory? All you'd need is bigger injectors and you're knocking on 700hp pretty quick with them.

450hp and about 75 ft/lb of torque. The big silver 92's would run away from them.

Yeah the 8V92's with DDEC could crank out the power too. All I know is he stepped out in the left lane, he let out a big cloud of black smoke, and he was gone. I'm on my stock 550 file right now though, no bullydog

I always wanted to drive an electronic 2 stroke. I think the 8v82 ddec4's came rated at 535hp in highway applications.

I take that back, it looks like the T's were 550/1500. I didn't think they were nearly that high.

Sweet Jesus That's a gorgeous truck. You've got a diamond in the rough right there. I don't think I've ever seen an ol square dash with that many gauges

Truckers, lets see your rigs!
I think you think this truck is a lot cleaner than it is lol... Sadly with where these trucks get taken we get stuck occasionally it sounds like. Unfortunately they hooked a chain to it and broke it and it left quite the mark on the hood and grill. They fixed it the best they could.
Like I've said, I see a diamond in the rough and I'm gonna run with it. Who knows, I may buy the truck from him in a couple years. It's had a rough life for sure. The paint is oxidized but after a quick look it won't take much work at all to make it shine at all. Might try that tomorrow.
Oh as far as the seat, I want that base gone, it irritates me how high I sit with no air in the base at all. The seat is comfortable as all get out though lol

Hehe... One of my next plans.
Question, get rid of the little muffler/resonator under the cab or no?
Oh and how warm is too warm on these old mechanical motors?
