Finally got to tow with the compounds.

It wasn't anything too heavy, built some walls for my flat bed and loaded up 3400lbs of scrap, rolled across the scales at just over 15k total.  I also hauled a 1959 Plymouth Fury.  The truck pulls so much harder with a load now, no hesitation in getting up to speed in traffic.  It was a night and day difference compared to just a single turbo.  I never crossed 1000* EGT even while pushing it hard on level 5 of my towing tune.  The whistling, oh how I love the whistling.  :woot:

Love that car. I would love to have twins...

Where's the under-hood photo?

 

I spent years making my engine quieter, which is good, except that the turbo has become quieter, too.  I didn't want that to happen.

Awesome to see a plan come to fruition. I bet that convoy turned some heads!  Well done sir.

There actually was another car it shared a living space with, a 1959 Belvedere in decidely worse shape.  That car is being sold to someone else though.

Is that your Christine?

 

Nope, it belongs to a friend of mine, it is currently being stored in my back yard though.  It's got a 440 from a 1968 Polara police car.

Ended up dragging the Belvedere home as well along with a 93 F-150.  My back yard is now at capacity.
