This is one of the 11.58 passes… Another fellow from UT was in the staging lanes and grabbed a video for me,,,

Bakersfield, CA

Anyway, once I made it to the track I breezed through tech, checked fluids and tires and got in line. I took 3- 5 degrees of timing out ( different rpm and map ranges ) to slow it down a little as I was worried about running too fast at sea level. I never had time to put in the roll bar so...

Long day..... I dropped my trailer at the track because the parking at my hotel was sketchy and I wanted to be in the parking lot under the lights. Turns out it didnt help. During the night someone popped the door lock out and tried to steal the dually. Tore the column to hell trying but...

Been there, done that. You can buy a lot of gas for what a diesel swap or even maintaining a diesel truck costs.. I can deal with it. It pulls good when I need it...

I'm trying to keep it reasonable. I learned yesterday at 75-80 my big block dually gets a pretty consistent 7.5mpg pulling the loaded enclosed. 60mph may save me some $$$ lol

Well, on the road to Formoso for hot rod garage day. Back in Primm for the night and then to Bakersfield this morning. It’s been pre-Covid since I’ve been at the Tree bar after the race.. Today this is literally killing me, I forgot about California and towing..lol

The Aces guys had a table/booth setup at the Duct Tape drags. Definitely his target audience there. The dude seemed pretty legit and was answering a ton of questions etc... Im sure he was in "sales guy" mode though. There were several guys there running the LS setup and they were all...

Holley can do the 6L's with a Terminator Max X setup. My buddy used an Aftermarket shifter for a Powerglide (Winters) and electric tap shifters on his steering wheel. Basically just an up button and a down button, nothing too fancy.

The Holley stuff is very good , I really like the data logging and tuning capabilities. At first I was really just looking at AFR, and knock etc.. Once I spent a little time with it I find myself really digging in a little more and its really making the cars run better and better. I never would...

I looked over the data logs again as I noticed some oddities in Tuscon and looked into the voltage drops I noticed at the track. After a little research it appears its a known issue. LS alternators really don't like 6000-7000 rpm apparently and that accounts for 9.8v at 7200rpm... After checking...

Seems like a super cool motor AND the absolute most expensive way possible to get 400hp..LOL

No pics but I finally cut the rusted Flowmasters off the Dually and weld on a new muffler and tailpipe. Also did the oil change and checked the other fluids and topped off the truck box for spare stuff etc,,, Did a huge Magnaflow muffler that has dual 3" inlets and a single 4" outlet. Then...

Well, It didn't blow up and I do have a bunch of PTO time left to use or lose so.... Looks like the little ugly 4 door got accepted to race at HRG day 2024 ( Hot Rod Garage ). Its Nov 9th at Fomoso. I've always wanted to go there and I'm actually gonna get to race... This time its a bracket...

Well, its over... lol Ran a stack of runs at 11.94at 114mph. I got put in the "Bogus" class for having too many nice parts on it this year. Tony Angelo was helping with the judging and he knows his stuff. Spotted everything on my motor and the aluminum block right away..lol Got put out in...

Dave said you did him a big favor and were a huge help.. so I went ahead and voluneered your garage and help for any future needs he may find.. I also told him not to say that again so you wouldnt get a big head, I mean you did already post up a pic of you and pewe as a profile pic..lol Friday...

Almost ready to leave tomorrow morning for Tuscon,AZ and Duct Tape Drags 2024.. I'm about 7' over the AZ length limit this year. Wish me luck..lol Tons of extra room in the enclosed though, I'm used to having 2 big ass sxs's crammed in there. The little Rambler barely takes up half the floor...

Im not sure it will write a Jeep vin into a GM ECM if you have GM credits etc. . The way HP tuner works is you buy credits for the specific use. You may have to buy the proper credits for the Chevy AND the Jeep to make that work.. I dont really do anything with HP these days. I use Holley...

I think spice looks good as well. I tend to agree and even think it looks “right” on a red Jeep. However, if you’re set on black i’d spend the extra..lol Every time you walk outside and see it are you gonna think “ I should have bought black” ?
