Hi all new here!

Just stopping in to introduce myself. Name is Dan, 32 years old from lomita/torrance area, got a 01 stroke f250 long bed xlt with all the usual mods. Im pretty good shade tree mechanic, welder, paint/body guy, detailer, blablabla! My business is mobile auto detailing up in palos verdes but I'm also an emt with a ambulance co in the Compton area.

Glad I found a local group to join that's 'stroker related! I'll fill my sig out when I have time to figure out how to do so lol

You'll fit right in with the rest of us 7.3 drivers, too.

Let's hear about the "usual" mods.

How about some "unusual" ones, too!

Welcome aboard! Why not meet up with us at the USS Iowa next Saturday morning?

Besides Trey, how many emt and fire related people in the group?!

Usual mods-stage 1 inj, dptuner, gutted tank pickup, riffraff frx, stainless oil crossover, gutted ebpv and wicked wheel, uhmmmm I think that's all.

Unusual mods-80 gallon AC tank in back of truck for waste oil suction and windowless ARE camper shell. I gotta carter 90 gph fuel pump off my tank feeding into a Baldwin 1212 which then feeds to factory high pressure pump(more Mickey mouse than unusual though lol).

Oh and 04 Harley grille. About it I think.

What time is the meet? I have holiday pics with the fam I gotta get done in the am but that's all I have Saturday.

Welcome, and you're welcome!
I am the only other active EMT in the chapter, but we do have dormant EMTs that pop in occasionally. No FFs or LEOs that I am aware of in the SoCal chapter, but you will find plenty of each in the 7.3 and SuperDuty sections.

The SoCal guys are good people.
