Man I love that sound. Got adrenalin pumping in My Ford Blue Blood again. But one note. Those CII P/S pumps don't like to be spun without any oil in 'em. You got any Slick 50 you can run through it once really fast? If you don't I do. Lawd only knows how I ended up with it. PM me if you don't have any. I'll Give it to ya. Have a driver bring it to ya monday.

Wow, those numbers are impressive for sure. I guess that would put me at around 350 hp and 471 tq at the wheels. That should make for a fun cruiser for sure. Thank you Mike for doing that. I will have a chassis dyno done to peak my performance and compare numbers you provided.
Now I have to prepare my truck for the power-plant.

Today I organized my work area for the truck. It needs a few more adjustments to maximize sun blockage and cooling in this 110 degree weather we are having. We are expecting much needed random rain storms for a few days.
More progress to come soon!!

Sounds awesome. Those DD5 numbers sound a little generous. I'm curious to see what the actual dyno numbers are compared to the DD5 numbers.
