He is probably down at least 100hp lol. I can't get over that trans though, it barks second gear on the strip lol.

I havent gotten to do that yet....its nothing short of crazy how much more efficiently the twisted unit puts power to the ground. I can not wait until I get springs in this sucker so I can go for a trial beating.

Damn it all, wish I was free that weekend! With this group showing early interest I'm sure there will be more coming out of the woodwork. Guess I'll be looking for the YouTube versions to see the 7.3 hellfire and damnation...

Matt...We still trying to have this big group of 7.3s? My truck will be there I know.

David N · Sep 29, 2014

Im gonna try to get mine there. I've gotten these dual hpop's on my truck, and holy hell it feels much faster.

But I may end up pulling them back off and getting a Gen 3 that Ive found a deal on now... so I will try to make it, but I can't make any promises yet.

ibestroken · Sep 29, 2014

I love my gen 3. All the oil you want and more. You just gotta spend a little time tuning to keep it from dying after a hard run and the loping at idle as well.

mattman347 · Sep 29, 2014

I am trying like crazy to get my crap back together!! I also got a call that I need to go up to Ohio and help dad with the fall harvest this week so its going to be cutting it close!! :doh:

mattman347 · Oct 2, 2014

Drove the truck 8 hrs to Ohio, if the rain holds off I might have a chance of making it still! Got to get this done so I might have to drive straight there! Lol

smoker00 · Oct 2, 2014

ibestroken · Oct 2, 2014

You need to get your truck there. Not huge fuel or air but it.gives the world a good idea of how a fairly common mod.combo.will perform on a fairly common setup. If I paint the top half of my truck grey they would look exactly the same. Right down to the wheels.
