Default The smell of burnt metal...
Looks like I need to replace my engine. May be time for a cam, springs and some fuel system upgrades as well.

Any suggestions for an engine and builder (probably not a stroker), cam choices or fuel upgrades?

Let me know what you think would work well in my heavy truck.

Thanks!

PS.I did turn a 12.77 @ 104.82mph on my G-Tech though....LOL

come on Grippy I have been waiting for you for what seems like forever...

Yep, get with Richard and Rex. They will get you a great combo. I've talked to Rex a few times and the price he quoted me is WAY WAY better than Anyone else I have been able to find, (other than building it myself)

Thanks for the recommendation and good luck finishing the truck up. It looks like it will be worth the wait for sure. All part of the journey. Ummm this may sound stupid but what is U/W?

I will call Rex for sure.
