Did some changes recently and picked up a considerable decrease in E.T. Here's a time slip: And a snap shot of the datalog of the run: The truck is an 2005, with a 66 over an S488, Durmax cp3 over the stock cp3 (running without a cp3 controller), BBI stage 4 injectors. The engine is...

I would like to keep this thread on tuning large injectors, and in particular the BBI stage 4's. I use a Smarty SSR with UDC for tuning, but the "concepts" should pertain to EFI Live as well. Please keep this to a technical discussion. It seems like these threads often end up in vendor...

As it says... 03 SO piston without the oil cooling passages. Anyone use them in a 1000+ hp application? I have a set of pistons, and thought about using them with both types of oil squirters (original and j). I have been told they will work, by someone that is highly respected by me and this...

There was some interest in the past about how well piston top coatings hold up. Here is a picture of a piston out of my 05, after about 28,000 miles and about 350 1/4 mile passes. Most of the passes were low 11's high 10's. It dyno'd 1015hp corrected and 1040hp uncorrected...

A couple of weeks ago, my 05 ran the best it ever has. It ran a 10.953 @ 123.68 mph. The incrementals were: 1.650 60' 4.561 330 7.012 1/8 100.15 1/8 mph 9.139 1000' The truck ran between there and 11.02 all night. It was not as consistient as it usually is, but that was more me playing with...

NHRA is gathering information from people that race in the SST class. The Sportsman Racers Advisory Council for the Super Categories (SRAC) and NHRA have discussed changing the rules. Two of the topics under consideration is: 1). Using a full tree, instead of a .500 pro tree. 2). Have a "dial...

This will be just used for utility work around the place, plus snow removal in the winter. Rented a 3032E a couple of weekends ago, and really liked it, but would like a little more power at this altitude. Anyone have any comments or suggestions on these two tractors? Thanks, Paul

Took the 05 to the track this weekend for the first time since putting the new engine in. I made a total of 12 passes (including a second place finish), with the quickest being a 11.67 @118.4 mph. All the passes were within .06. This was with the Smarty on level 1, timing on 3, rail pressure on...

Jeff (Snedge) sent me a couple of pics and labeled them "Redneck Porn", and I added to them. First one is one of the ones Jeff sent me: Then another part that came from both Jeff, via Swain Coatings, and a part that came from Rip at Source Automotive: I have some other porn but they seem...

I heard that the crankshafts are different between manual and automatic transmissions in certain year engines. Looking at the crankshaft how can you tell the difference? This particular engine is a late 05, with an ESN of 57435765. Any help would be great. Thanks, Paul

A couple of weeks ago, I got the chance to drive Rip's (owner of Source Automotive and Dunrite converters) 08. They had just installed a set of twins, which used the stock top turbo, and an S475 on the bottom. I really hadn't driven one of the 6.7's much, but I have to admit that the way the...

At the end of this season of racing I started to get some combustion gases in the coolant. It would only happen after a couple of all out passes. After that the level in the overflow jug would go up by about 4 inches. Other symptoms were that the truck didn't spool as well when staging, and mph...

The last Lucas Oil Division 6 race for 2008 was held this past weekend in Medford Or. I raced my 05 in the Pro E.T. class and ended up winning the class. This makes my 5th Wally in a diesel pickup, the third gold one, and the first in my 05. As far as I know this was the first time a diesel...

This is my 05, with Andy driving. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqX4vGB8p-M

Next week a diesel pickup will be racing in the Division 6 bracket finals and the Division 6 Race of Champions, in the Super Pro class. As far as I know this is the first time a diesel pickup will be running in Super Pro at the bracket finals, much less in the race of champions. The pickup will...

This weekend was the first race in my 05 (and actually the first full passes), and it ran a best of 11.47@119. This was on #2 only. I was having fuel supply problems and the lift pump pressure was < 2 psi by the 330. I'll have that fixed by this weekend, so maybe I can actually turn up the...

At this years Division 7 bracket finals NHRA has decided that nitrous will not be allowed in the Sportsman or Pro classes. It is still allowed in SuperPro. Here is the rule change: http://www.nhradiv7.com/apcm/templates/divnews.asp?articleid=26291&zoneid=16 It is also in the Tech Facts for...

Gates open at 8:00am,time trials start at 9:00am. This is the 38th annual New Years day race. Anyone else going? Paul

Saturday was a good day! It was the final points race of the year at Redding. I won both the Sportsman race and the King of the Track race. This is my first King of the Track Wally! :rockwoot: The King of the Track race is held at each NHRA track. The top two people in points at the end of...

Champion Raceway, in Medford, OR, had it's annual Nitro Summer fest last Saturday. The only class they had that I could race in was Bracket 1. This class was for electronic and non-electronic cars, that run between 12.99 and 8.90, so there was a mix of Super Gas, Super Pro, Pro, and of...
