I think it's time to tune up the 2" trash pumps and find more hose....
So many people down here RELY on their sump pumps to keep the water out of their basement on a regular day are going to be up to their ears when the power goes out for DAYS.

i am guessing somewhere around 3.00, using 4000rpms and .75 OD ratio.

if we can find an overdrive ratio for the tranny we could use math (or a gearing calculator on the webs) and plug in the stock redline to find what they probably ran. i would like to see what a totally stock 6.7 would do, because it has a lot of power
