almost did it

so I almost bought a whipple 2.3 yesterday, then I looked at kennebell's website and then I decided against that too.

then I considered a 9.25 crank pulley (lightning 6#er = 10.5 -11psi with the Harley upper) and an upgraded heat exhanger (a tune also)...

I still want to show this truck in "stock" category, which means I can change only 5 things on the truck

It would be so easy to modify it but it's such a good lookin stocker and we've had it almost 3 years now with no mods (except for the sticker and the tires)



what would you guys do???

Buy the Whipple and send it to me to look after it for you.

Hey, I just noticed your in Garmisch.
Man, you just missed the best Euro SVT meet ever in Hannover.
We all had a great time there.

Why do I see a hitch on that? I think you should take it off and save the weight. Use the Lariat as the towing truck

the harley hauled a bag of groceries once. the hitch is just on there cause I like the look. (notice the wiring plug is mounted up underneath the bed floor)

the lariat towed one trailer in the time we've owned it.

if I need to haul anything I've got a '65 F-250 that handles the chore easily
