I thought I had read it in an article he was interviewed in. Seems high but it's just what I had read. Yes he is a nice guy for sure.

Eric is a very nice guy. But those guys always claim to be making big power with a S60. I've never seen it.

Yea. They still do the convoy too. I didn't stay for the pull though. The convoy arrives around 10, they don't start pullin till dark. I haven't pulled since 2013. I do miss it though. Afraid the new truck wouldn't work all the well with the long wheelbase. Sux that's the only one in the area now too

I'm not convinced a short wheel does a lot, unless you have big power, a solid rear and putting air to the front bags. We shortened my dads KW years ago and are talking about lengthening it back out. Mostly because the ride sucks and at 750 hp its not worth the sacrifice.

1,200 hp in a far cry from 2,100 hp. I'm not saying Ralph or Eric aren't making big power (relatively speaking). But people over estimate a lot and unless its been on a dyno its all speculation.
Unless its been on the dyno, you might as well believe a politician.

I'm not saying I'd believe it. Just what I read. You'd think at these power levels these guys would be dynoing them to know for themselves the actual increases they get.

Most of the east coast 4.1 pullers have been on an engine dyno at some point and time, for cats once someone does it and knows the parts there isn't a lot of reason to spend that money.
