So im looking at the new diesel power mag right now, and there is artical about a 97 f350. It has 238/80s and a s366. making 500hp. They put in a set of 300/200 and want to put in a s400 turbo and shoot for 550hp. Just seems wired that the hp is that low.

Maybe you should write them and send them a copy of your dyno sheet

I guess now I understand why people list their low miles OBS on craigslist for $17,000.00. I used to think they were crazy. I honestly thought about what it would take to pry this truck from my grips and I think it would take at least $18,000.00 cash money in a fancy case for me to let this truck go, and I would still cry. lol.

My dad loves those things. Are you seriously trying to sell it? If its 4wd, pm a price and some pictures and I'll see if he is interested.

Naw its a 2wd dually. I honestly don't mind IDIs, theyre just not Powerstrokes lol. I just don't want this one because I need to fix my Powerstroke lol. If he would be interested in a 2wd, Id love to talk to him. Iv listed it at $1500 below FAIR value and still no bites...
