    Back to 6.2, amazing.

    But... I like my non-epa friendly CDR vent (does one even need a CDR like this?).

    IMO, of course..............
    Glad you noticed too, guess I better get ready to polish another one...

    Well - dogs like to 'mark' their territory every where they go - don't see much point in doing that with the 6.5, but if you like leaving spots every where over several hundred-k miles, then you prolly won't need the CDR system, with it's added weight and hi-maintenance aggravation, to prevent main-seal leaks, eh?

    It has stayed...

    The track owner might not appreciate my marking, actually already got in trouble for that once (diesel)

    I have the hose from the CDR going under the truck and not in the intake like it was stock. It does not drip on the ground though. It leaves a little coating on the bottom of the truck but it's to prevent rust

    Good Day!

    Back to the subject - my neighbor probably wishes there was a good forged crank for his 300" alcohol dragster - just paid $3000 for a billet one (last season's had a 3" crack, but didn't grenade - whew!).

    Maybe his daughter goes > 200 mph this weekend at Cedar Falls. She made it to 192 mph when she was 16. The boys probably have a hard time impressing her with their rides, waddayathink?


    Blessings!
