i was just addressing the hp/vs reliability thing. I agree that aaron did well, but imho thats pushing it to keep making passes. That year they didnt drag race bracket style where you might have to make 6 rounds to be the winner on top of making 1 or 2 qualifying passes on top of all that.

doesnt matter. that truck went straight to ts and did the same thing for the most part over and over ... his and jd's are eerily similar. remember jeremy went faster than anyone else there and made more power than anyone else there, and had aaron not broke ur sweet hitch he woulda prolly beaten jeremy. just throwing out the crewcab 1000 horse ford guesstimate related to this year. every year is different. no matter how we compare, different obstacles. jd coulda had bigger jets in for the later rounds and been fine. never know.

Jds truck is a freak. Little stupid stuff kills us too, like not engaging your transfer case lol the 6.7 seems like it might be our go to platform from here on out, the extra displacement and better head flow should should keep the elevation from affecting it so much right?

How do you think kalebs truck would spool at elevation?

every year does bring up new things. I think jds set up as is could win it. Not only that they enforce the cage rule so making rounds requires running 11.5 or having a cage, not sure everyone had that or not but from the sounds of it you save that for the last pass lol
Do you have numbers (CFMs) on the 6.7 vs 6.4?

i dont, but they are way better. i wanna say 30+ on each cylinder. for instance, a 66 lights at 1800 on a 6.7 and at 2200 on a 6.4 ... not exact #'s but damn close.

What needs to happen next year is JD, Godzilla, and the big ape.

Sounds like the most powerful lineup you could get. King Kong should stay together since they already put that thing through hell and it holds. JD has a solid setup at altitude as it is, just give that another year and see where it ends up. And as long as mike can keep Zilla together that long it should have enough abuse under it to call it "reliable".

Why off topic. What was the final HP/TQ numbers for the 7.3L ?? Was it fuel only or N.O.S added??
Thanks!
Thanks!
