I just drove threw Mooresville NC yesterday going to pick up a parts truck. It's only about 3 - 3 1/2 hours from me. How much is this guy willing to pay to get that Super Bee delivered?

 

Nate, I pulled the load I sent you the pic of up I77. It wasn't a heavy load at all, probably 5-6k lbs trailer and all. I pulled every mountain on I77 in 5th gear at 70-75 mph, EGTs never went over 1000*. Even on Fancy Gap and Camp Creek. Those are two longest and steepest pulls. I was pretty happy with the way the truck performed. It's sweet spot towing light like that seems to be at 70-75 mph and about 2600 rpms. At 70 mph pulling those long mountains I still had power in reserve with that light of a load. The only thing that ever slowed me down was other traffic, but when I could get around them I could pick back my speed.

 

Bill, your truck is a towing MACHINE! I'm glad it worked well for you. No clutch slip issues on your trip?

 

No, not this time. I tow in my Daily Driver tune. I got it to slip the other day in the Extreme tune when I was gonna race it at the dirt drags.

 

Bill wants to break it again so he can fix it, LOL

Glad to hear its working so well Bill!!

 

LOL! I do want to replace the clutch, but don't want to break it just yet I think I have decided to put a full ceramic back in it. Now, I know that the full ceramic are not recommended to tow with, but if I can get the trans that I built from the gasser trans with the lower gears in it rebuilt and put back in at the same time as the clutch, I don't think it will be as much of an issue. I had been thinking about the full ceramic for a while and Travis and I were talking the other day and he kinda helped me make up my mind for sure on it. I don't have the money for a dual disk and I know the full ceramic will hold, so with the other trans freshly rebuilt and back in, that's the route I'm gonna go I think.

 

Sounds like a good plan.

 

This is what I was towing yesterday. Not very heavy at all.

 

See if this one is bigger.....

 

Put the coffee down and skeeter down and walk off the porch? Lol

 

LMAO!!!!! How did you know?

 

I know that view lol and that bunn making go go juice on a Sunday morning..skeeter is predictable too haha

 

Yep. A nasty dreary Sunday morning too. That's why I'm still in here on the puter drinking coffee

Cool! I have two OBS PSD trucks sitting in front of my shop to work on. I gotta get all the oil flushed out of the cooling system on the F-SuperDuty and get it finished up today so I can get paid! LOL The other one is the ECSB that my buddy just bought. I gotta go through it for him. Do brakes and check ball joints, install a LED light bar and gauges, and do e-fuel.
