thanks

I had an appt at Stictly Diesel today. After the recomendation from helifixer and then seeing their shop mentioned in the Diesel World magazine I figured i'd look them up. Found their website, nice. called them up to take advantage of their free brake inspection. Both Nathan and Mike were VERY cool. As you know I'm a diesel newbie so I had lots of questions, they were happy to answer them all.
I wish I could have made it to the diesel races last weekend, they were one of the event sponsers, but could not. Hopefully next time!
I'd like to get my truck on a dyno to get a baseline before i make any performance mods. Dunno how much that costs or who does it.

Greg is an Excellent Tech, I worked with him many years ago at another shop, and my brother worked for him at ADS.

I am not sure, But I expect he has a minimum charge for the dyno, his rates are up there, but you'll get quality service!

I've heard nothing but good things about Nate and Mike! Glad they got you taken care of! Be sure to stop by the 7.3 tech section, the guys and girls up there are very knowledgeable!
