PSNut - I wasn't trying to be rude with the double your money comment - maybe that's a little high

I like the PSD - just as years ago, I liked the Ford 351 Cleveland gasser engine.

But the PSD suffers from one problem that is exactly like the Cleveland engine - they'll both go fast, but require a HELL of a lot more money to build than their competition.

For a fraction of the price I would have had to spend on a Cleveland, an old Chevy mouse motor will fly.

For a fraction of what you will have to put into the PSD to get it to perform the way you want, you could put a Cummins in it.

Sorry. That is just the way it is. I wish it wasn't. But one tiny example - for the price of ONE PSD injector, you can buy a set of injectors for the 12valve Cummins (don't know about the 24-valvers) - and you need 8 of them!!

Oh, and the fastest pickup on earth (at Bonneville) is a Dodge Dakota with a Cummins engine. Last I looked, it went 228mph - unless that has since been broken.
