Hey rust, glad to see you over here too!

wow thanks guys

the tarp gets puffy past 100. I only use it for cruise-ins.
peel the magnetic stars off and its just an old green beater :twisted:

I dynoed it in February during an open house "dyno day"
and had some mediocre results. 667/572 @ 18psi on pump gas.
the tuneup didnt work on the dyno. it went 9:1A/F past 5000 :(
I have since ditched the flowmasters in favor of Dynomax bullets
and switched from M/T sportsmans to M/T S/R. that should get the rolling resistance down and free up the turbos a bit. it sure feels like it did.
I may run it through the 1/8 before winter, and try the dyno again.

if I keep it I'll have 4 cars and one cramped ass garage.
my dad gave me the nomad 20 years ago and its not for sale.
I bought the truck as partially completed roller 7 years ago and its pretty much run its course. its better suited as a dusty conversation piece for some old fart. :lol: probably safer there too

thanks guys

I figure I'll add on to the garage for the tools and stuff to free up space.
whats 4 cars anyways. I should always be able to get to work :lol:

I hope I can get time to take it to the track this year.
either way, I'll freshen it up over the winter and add a transbrake.
hopefully the jugs arent too tore up. its ok it'll go .200 over

rusted40 I have 4" bullets on mine and they can hear me coming. I think they are better then choke masters.Also after you freshen it up I will race you one carb to you on one turbo that would be a good heads up race don't you think.

cha reet

you pull 4 plugs out and I might be able to keep up :lol:
I have maybe half your horsepower and a 3000lb car

I spun some 1.80 60' off the footbrake with the old tires :cry:
maybe the new tires and a transbrake/2-step will make it launch
I'm still learning
