You still can't be grumpier than the guy who owned the 6.7 Cummapart they had inside.



Freddy (owner) is a cool guy. They were working on a set of compounds in a 6.7 Cummins and a 4bt swap in a Durango. Plus figuring out what went in Walt's high pressure oil system.
Yes I was talking with Walt for quite awhile.


The CumminGs guy won the grumpy award.


I did get a chance to meet Fred, between running from one project to another.

I was hanging out primarily with the group of hooligans on the back (non-dyno) side of the shop with the camper. Freddy hung out with us after the turbo "expert" they brought in forgot to pull the shipping plug out of the oil drain and blew the seals out of one of the chargers.

I bet Freddy had to vent after that little mistake. I would have choked the guy.

I believe the hooligans were the Jersey crew. I did get a chance to meet with a couple of guys from there.
