Before tearing the engine back down I decided to see if i could button it up enough to go to the local diesel drags this weekend.

I removed the stud that was leaking and coated it with silicon. Re torqued and put it all back together. Changed the oil and filter.

Seems to be doing fine for now. I'm going to run it just enough to try out the newest file Matt sent me. Then trailer it to the drag strip.

Last year I won the event, hope to bring home another "W" for the ford team this weekend!

Drove it home from the shop and there doesn't appear to be any loss of coolant thus far. Hoping she holds together for the weekend!!!

just went out and made some burnout videos and WOT runs. I'll post the videos in a few minutes once they upload.

one question, under WOT whichever shift is before the converter locks it seems to not want to shift and kind of goes back and forth. some times the truck will literally lose all boost once it does shift and then pick it back up.

it has matt's tunes in it. i just uploaded this tune today so it could need to "learn"? i hope

you will be able to tell from a few of the videos what im talking about.
