    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!

    So was this in fact an engine going into production anytime soon or just a concept or prototype for show sizzle?

    Are they going to market it like the Optimizer? I did not see anything new on the GEP website I could find. In fact did not see info on the Optimizer either???

    The engine changes will likely be announced on http://www.optimizer6500.com/ once they're ready....
