Looking for a performance DB2

[Chevypoor]

WarWagon, when we were discussing the Puff Limiter we were looking at the IP on my truck. He made no mention of any clearance issues but it may be a good question to ask. Sorry I did not do a more in depth investigation- they were busy and we were anxious to get on the road.

Did you give Mel a quick ride to show him how a real diesel runs? Lol

No, but I should have! LOL!

With the snow we limited the show and tell. However they have a customer appreciation day in the summer when you can bring your rig and meet other diesel heads. I figured I would try and go and represent the 6.5 since the pics I saw of past events were mostly Chryslers and Ferds!

I would be curious to see what it puts down on a dyno with the Bull Moose/ATT setup

Well I have hoping to get my 69 c10 on the rollers again- the motor that is in it came out of my 69 Nova I sold awhile back. When it was in the Nova I had some issues with valve float at 5500, the dizzy was weazin' (a stock point unit with a Petronix), and I accidentally left the brown (heavy) spring in the Holley. She still put down 261 uncorrected at the tires on a green rebuild (less than 800 miles). I have fixed these issues and the motor is now two years old with some miles (close to 5 or 6k)- the rings were not even fully seated when I made the runs! Been wondering were this little small block will be- suspect 280 or so. I have the soft rev limiter in the Petronix 3 dizzy set at 6200 and she pulls strong to the rev limiter. If I can find the time maybe the wife can drive the 69 and I can take T- the dyno guy has never run a diesel, should be a fun time!

Good to hear a company is willing to put out 6.5 performance Mechanical IP's. Wish I would have been around for that, nostalgia and all. Good on ya to equip it. Best wishes on the dyno. I did keep the motor mounts/rolling chassis for the 6.5 Camaro just in case I get the itch. Three year old girl and full time owner/operator, who am I kidding. Love the thread and hearing about your experiences.
