She's Alive!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Went and picked her up yesterday and man is she doing great after her near death experience. The doctors and staff took great care of her and she had no complaints!!! One of the other trucks that was there for a service told her how yall had been thinkin about her. And she says "Thank You!!!" They even gave her that sponge bath we were talking about.

I grabbed a cigar and was going to smoke it on our drive home but i figured that she had already done enough smoking over the past few months for the both of us!

Thanks again yall we send our love!

Nothing sounds better to me than a nice new, fresh, crisp sounding engine.
Congrats on the rebuild.

Great news Nolan. Now we can all relax. What mods did your buddy at the dealer say you can do without voiding the warranty?

Robin- He didn't say anything about not voiding the warranty... He basically said on these trucks anything is safe as long as its not on there when I take it back for warranty work... (I.E. programmer) The CCV and all of those kind of basic mods dosn't make a difference. He even gave my 6637 an O.K and said it was a dang good filter. I thought that they would put a stock air box back on it, but they didn't. And even said that the cover was a great idea and the best he'd ever seen. Rep's to Pete for that...
Thank guys!!!

Sounds like you have a good shop there with people that know what they are doing. Yep, Pete's pre-filter covers .
