Good afternoon everyone. I regret watching the pulls at the Durham Fair last night. Now I feel the urge to either lift my truck, build the 351, or just start pulling the thing. Shoulda learned my lesson after the Haddam Neck pulls.

Have Brian It looks like a lot of rain tomorrow.

Well I ran the dyno in Mass. today ( hit a LOT of traffic for the Big-E on 91 N )
377 hp, a little low
697 torque, I wish it was 700 but not bad.
I will try to post a photo tomorrow.

I hope that Ray and Aaron had a good day also.

Andy those are respectable numbers. At least from my point of view as a 7.3 guy. Some of the craziest trucks were running 500+ hp the ones with turbos, sticks, and live tuning were around 400 give or take 25hp or so. 377 isn't bad as far as I'm concerned although I know the newer trucks are capable of higher numbers than the old ones.
