Off to Dyno!!!

[lil_dq]

now we have to dedicate a circut for the fuel pumps. Aparently they were only getting 6V back there?! IDK I just want the damn thing back in my driveway. Every time I talk to guy I just keep seeing $$ flying out of my billfold. A $300 trip to the Dyno is turning into $1500.

Both electric pumps?
Didnt even think about that my self Doc...
But it does make sense...
Its not very often everything goes according to plan, that is why i ALWAYS over budget. For EVERYTHING.
Perfect example: went to a mud bog last year entered the truck just for chits and giggles...
Figured it would run me bout 300 bucks to go have a good time and get back...
Cost me no more than 75...
I ALWAYS over budget, not always by that much, but i would rather have extra money when im done with something then not get it complete cause of lack of funds.

Doc, Id go to the nearest truck stop and cut me off a CB antenna off a peterbilt then drive to that shop and start whooping some *** with said Antenna..
Personally it sounds like they are taking you for a ride..

LOL not the money I am worried about but it is bugging me. I forgot/didn't realize I needed a tuner $360 had to drop the tank $320 his time for woking on it???? and the actual tune $3-400 grrrrr plus materials! That is why I work on my own stuff! LOL

I think I'm gonna shoot somebody!!!!!!!!!! Now that he got it running we found out my intake manifold gasket on the pass side is leaking BAD! So now I have to run up there in the morning, run back to the house. Pull the intake off on the coldest effing day of the year and put new gaskets on it!!!!!! SO it is official I will not have the truck till next fri when I get back in town!! But I will at least be able to get some running vids of it.

 

[Truckin4life]

ouch, that sucks.
But sounds like it is coming together....
Things like this are never done in the first step, always bugs to be worked out...

I gotta remember that when I go to the strip club next.

Eh, strip clubs are not my kind of place.
Been once, didn't enjoy my self, likely wont go back...
The whole look and no touch thing, not for me.

I prefer the whole thing, and working for it seems to add to the prize...
The "thrill of hunt" thing...
