This is a funny thread.

What on Earth doesn't cause cancer? How about that cell phone next to your brain etc.

Anyhow as a huge diesel fan, here's my old one - made 600RWHP and I could "soot" up a car next to me in a heartbeat

I loved those summer days when people had their windows down rockin some ridiculous bass note that was shaking me in my seat. It's really fun to watch a wall of black smoke go into their drivers window and come out the passenger side. Diesels are a blast, especially when you do some serious work to them.

Notice how the pistons were hitting the valves. Hilarious to find out that a Shelby Cobra 5.4 32v valve springs not only fit perfectly on this Navistar diesel, but also give enough seat pressure to stop the floating at high RPM. Retainers, keepers, etc., all matched up perfectly lol.



Yes - that's Chrysler green



And here's my newest one - it's rockin' 700RWHP - It blows the tires loose at 70mph and can still get 20mpg. Pretty fun.



Moral of the story - You don't know what you're missing until you've drove something with 60+ pounds of boost
