The fact that you took a step back and decided to do what made sense for yourself is something many people do after its too late. SO pumped on this channel, and a big amen to doing it your way.

I think the whole produced drama began with Boyd Coddington's show American Hot Rods, and every show since has followed the same formula , bigger better builds on a budget with even less time and less help. Probably what killed Boyd the stress and a younger second wife and having the first still as a business partner and not a silent one unfortunately.

@@StayTunedTA Yep, and sometimes there's no amount of upgrades that will get it right. I have a 57 Cadillac Coupe Deville that's in that zone, but she drives good enough from the factory that I don't have to swap it. Doesn't mean I haven't considered dropping it on 94-96 Caprice chassis.

@lousypirate 11 месяцев назад

one fun thing to do with that p7100 is to get a brake bias adjuster for a race car and hook it up to the preboost screw so you can mess with at idle fuel while driving. I had mine mounted at the bottom of the dash above the trans tunnel. Becomes a "smoke knob" if you feel like screwing it that far... or have the need. Kinda nice to turn it down when you're not doing much, but bump it up when you're towing to get that off the line response. The AFR mods are super worth doing or redoing, they get done incorrectly a lot of the time.

@GPW289 10 месяцев назад

Tony, I had a 2002 V10 F250 for 12 years. Pulled a 8300+ camper around the country many times. Your right about the gas mileage. It would pull anything you hooked it to and would pass anything on the road except a gas station. It served me well for a very long time. I eventually upgraded to a diesel also. Great content! Keep up the good work.

@GhiaSteve89 11 месяцев назад

this is like my dream truck. Growing up my grandfather had a 72 f-250 hi-boy that he and my uncle swapped a perkins diesel boat motor into. IIRC it had a manual trans, t-case, and an over under regular box so the thing had like umpteen gears. non turbo so it didn't go anywhere fast but man it was cool. I remember driving somewhere and smelling brakes only to realize the parking brake was still on. After my grandfather passed my dad sold the truck. I actually found it a few years later on craigslist but the seller stated "previous owner ruined it by putting a perkins in. we corrected that and it's got a 460 now. I wish i was old enough to drive before it got sold, maybe I could have gotten it.

@DocHolliday3841 10 месяцев назад

Hey Tony I know that you're very knowledgeable when it comes to cars but in case you weren't aware when it comes to towing 60% of the weight should be at the front of the trailer to prevent trailer sway & that heavy Cummins was at the rear of the trailer. Also that white Dodge Ram 2500 you purchased looks like it has a leveling kit in the front. I would remove that if I were you because the truck should have natural rake; 2 inches taller in the rear so when you tow close to max it's level. Otherwise you LIFT weight in the front & affect steering = bad time.
