    Old Cummins Owner Back With Newer Truck

    It all started for me back in 97 12 valve with 5 speed.

    I started slowly Fuel plate open exhaust AFE Filter = Dyno'd 234 HP.

    Went Crazy from there, in 2003 I was running HX55 w/ small BW exhaust housing.

    The Turbo let go on the Dyno at the EDGE in 2003!!

    It had pulled 556 HP but the tire where slipping they clamped it down harder and had 4 big guys on the tailgate.

    The tires slipped and the turbo surged at ~ 65psi and let go.

    Metal got all the way threw the turbo into all 6 cylinders stuck the valves open a very bad Day.

    That didn't stop me over the winter and jumped all in.

    I completely overhauled the mighty 12 valve.

    Too many parts to list but a good group from Piers Diesel Research, His Camshaft, Modified Head and Twin Turbo set up HX-40 & H3b, Double o-ringed Copper Head Gasket, #0 plate with Modified injection pump, and South Bend Dual Disc Clutch & 3600 lb PP, & many more mods.

    The next Edge Dyno days it put down 674 HP.

    Still, this truck but the heavy clutch and my knee don't like each other.

    Upgraded to a 2020 RAM 2500 crew cab 6.4" bed just past 100K and it's time to lose some weight
