yeah re-torquing you're head is going to take soooooo much time

took me about 3 hours last time. take off every nut one at a time, clean it, put more lube on it, re-torque to 125, adjust all of the valves.. You done it a few times? You even know how many studs there are?

I might still run it, if there isn't a bunch of people. My timing is real low and my boost is low, so it's not like I'm putting a lot of strain on it. but my valves are a bit tight since my head sank down a little again.

I think it's funny how so many downplay their trucks performance right before a event like this and it's usually the same people who talk it up the rest ofthe time....
:haha:

I think there are 32, at least 30 something, somebody need's to introduce this guy to air tool's, being the diesel god you are you should know that shop time only pay's around 2 hours for a re-torque, you work slow.

less then that. And I can't even use a garage let alone have airtools.

I'm guessing you are talking about me.. When do I talk my truck up? Anyone that knows me knows that I have never been happy with what it's done. Ask around. Just because I give you **** all of the time doesn't mean mine is some great truck..

I talk plenty of crap. But i definitely don't try to talk my stuff up. I'd have my foot in my mouth more then on the ground if that were the case.

Theres why I said excuses :flipoff:

Mine only probably does about 250hP with about 400 lbs a trq. :redneck: But I'm a gaser

t1h5ta3 · Nov 4, 2007

no excuses. thats within 9 hp...
and thats power to the ground....

for comparison purpose, a stock 305/555 dodge puts down around 225 hp to the ground depending on dyno.

whats your excuse for guessing what yours makes , it was a free event..
