[hanks1961kw]

@hurremie This one is okay not too loud.

[hanks1961kw]

@nm9730 correct me if i am wrong. but i am thinking that person was saying something to the effect of, cold engines do not last too long being thrashed like that. these old DD's tho. appear not to give a shit. they run for damn near forever

[speedskiff2]

@yamahonkawazuki would if I could figure how to attach photos. Only good thing getting alzheimer's is you meet new people every day....LOL

[MasterWitchDoctor]

@CowboyTheHellUp If that was true then half the trucks on the interstate would be junked. Who ever told you that is very very wrong. there are numerous companies selling packages putting engine well over 800 hp.

Like the video, send some recent updates.

[yamahonkawazuki]

@speedskiff2 could you send me the pics as well?

[yamahonkawazuki]

@CowboyTheHellUp no that isnt the case . might have been in times past, but not nowadays

[yamahonkawazuki]

@hanks1961kw 12 pack, or buzzin dozen. aka music to my ears. ( and my alarm clock at about 800 watts lol)

[CowboyTheHellUp]

@MasterWitchDoctor bad thing is in America anything over 600 hp is illegal on the roads. or at least that what I've heard.

[MasterWitchDoctor]

You want serious power get a 3408 and run a set of turbos in a 2 tier arrangement. They come to life @ over 1000 hp and can go over 1500. Check out some of the road trains from Austrailia, 1500 hp 3408s is common place.
