power..power.. power

Well guy`s i have reached a conclusion, it doesn`t matter how much power you have for the steep grades, you can add the bigger turbo to keep the egt`s down,heck you can pull the steepest hills faster.But it don`t matter if there is a ford in front of you.......


all kidding aside i went and put a few fueling boxes works good cooled it with a better turbo heck i pulled up a road 226to Burnsville NCnot shore of the%of grade but it`s secound gear stuff...( i believe with 8.. 2200to 2500 pound bulls plus the 18 foot stoll well the pic. i have shown heck not light empty we )anyway`s with me added power i could pull this grade in third egt`s never rose above 1100 degree`s the only thing was the water 223 degree`s after just a about a mile up this curvy dogs leg of a road (to put this road in prespective there is a speed limit for trucks at 15 mph ,two brake cooling turnout`s ,and one run away ramp,STEEP )


so it does not really matter about the extra horses cause you ain`t gonna be about to keep your water cool enough

did i happen to say i blowed the end off of the valve stem.....or that on the way back i exploded a trailer tire at 1:30 in the morning no spare it was left with the other guy`s that stayed at the rodeo PARTYING go figure another hour and a half wait.....................................


BUT THE WEMON UP THEIR WAS WORTH IT!!!
and two bull riders went two hospital...and one very ..very cute barrel racer



by the way have you ever feed honey buns to cookiedough?
