Apparently the world ended in 1989; at least the people in Seekonk think it did...

That show looks like the real deal; too far for me to "swing by" though. Thanks for posting that up.

If anyone is not busy next weekend, we should get together and do some runs. I am itching to try out the new tune. 28PSI with a leaner 02. I have run it on the highway under full load with no knock. Should be G2G..

I have been going to some weekly truck meets in and around worcester, but lots of random cars show up. We usually meet in big parking lots like the park + ride off rt 20. Our dyno is also right outside worcester in sterling, plenty of room there.

Tom this is Mike that has the GMT400 on 38s, we used to go to the gm truck world meets back in like 03 lol! I liked your whippled burban so much I had to steal the engine ya its not the 8.1 but shhh



maybe you remember the big truck?
