that would be a great build except the older truck and allison.  Auto trans would not take a 300-350hp 12 valve.


not sure what the balls comments are all about

we have an old kodiak truck like that...

if you want to drive one come on down...  well go for a spin.

I call the first I told you so for when you think a 5.9  in a medium duty is going to do the job.

i just dont see the differance in 1500lbs and a little more air for grossing 25-30K




my 24 valve would keep up if not rape any the trucks we have.  i just want that power back with big truck brakes and tires and service intervals- thats all lol.

pointless- you missed my comment about built 12valve.  not 195hp POS on a cold day.

i bet 10 minutes in mikes or chads driveway, it would be your guys favorite truck, until a week later the tranny puked from the power.

Driving 100K miles a year there is no time for chipped engines, dumptruck transmissions or 500 gallon tanks..

Billions of dollars in R&D are just fine by me..

Things work better, longer when they aren't "enhanced"




Guilty as charged some times as well.. ::)
