Just edited my post. It says it does at the top but at the bottom it says it does not. Contadictary at thge least. Typo maybe.

This is my little noisy 99.

Not a pic of the truck itself but how things look from my point of view when driving these days

 

Hey how well does the quadzilla qauges match your analogs?

I don’t have any redundant gauges between the quad and ISSPRO’s but things like coolant and battery voltage match spot on.

I've got a dumb question. Why aren't most of you just posting your trucks in the Garage?

Obviously because we've not that bright... 

All you guys with your clean interiors peer pressured me into cleaning mine today.... Even the plastic on the door sills.  

And Bayes is responsible for me making a purchase today.    

@notlimah, we could be doing a lot worse with you!

Looks like they scoot along nicely! And sound good to boot! 

 

If.... IF I ever went compounds I’d have to go with something like what @jlbayes is going with now so I wouldn’t have to re-stall.

Lol that video is slow compared to now. And that 'if' sure sounds like a when....

 

Of the two 2nd gens I’ve owned over the years, up until last year they were both completely stock power/trans wise. I’m in no hurry to jump straight to the top of the power curve just yet hahaha!

Don't think just do lol

I have a bunch of gauge videos of my old truck but unfortunately zero of the little truck. 

 

The road I live on is an awesome test and tune road. I could come off the main road in 2nd, by first turn 3-4 shift, into it pretty good by next turn 4th to 5th. At this point there is a 1/2 mile straight away. I would floor it, the rear end would squat, and the nose would come up. Pretty cool feeling from drivers seat. Notttttttt so much from passengers.

 

The highest total boost I saw was a needle width or 2 above 70 pounds with the speedo pegged.

 

After a few mach 3 bomb runs the truck would be laying low for a few days.
