Jonmalibuss Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 Hello to everyone, I know it has been a long time since I have posted or even been by the site. I have been very busy at work with this project working most days 5:30am to 5:00pm, but we now have the worlds first diesel truck to run in the 7's.

Jonmalibuss Posted December 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 did you build the rat rod shop truck?? Yes it is currently being stored in one of our buildings waiting for a new T-56 from a Viper because we can't get the G-froce to hold the power.

Jonmalibuss Posted December 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2007 Sweet...I seen you guys at Irwindale 2 weeks ago at the tech-in I must have missed your run!! Yeah we don't go there often even though it is down the street from the shop. We only made one run, we had a 1.13 60' there and as soon as the driver shifted into second the truck started to walk towards the wall so he let out of it. The second time we went up the driver did the burnout and we ended up with a fuel leak on the high pressure side of the fuel system so we decided to call it a night and went home. The engine that we currently have in the truck isn't even the drag engine yet, we are limiting it to just under 5k and we are hoping for anywhere between 5500-6k with the next engine.

Jonmalibuss Posted December 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Thanks guys. We are currently assembling the real drag race engine with our own custom forged pistons. We should have it on the dyno very soon and run some much better times mid to late January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
