The last time we dyno it was aroung June in Sanford. It put down to the rear wheels througha Th400 auto tranny, NP205 and 14bolt rear 207hp@ 2450rpms and 475lb/ft or torque@ 1950rpms. At that time we had 50hp injectors and have since added 100hp injectors. We never got a chance to dyno it with the 100hp injectors before my son rolled the jeep. I don't think it added a lot. It needs more air and the timing needs advanced. I believe with a little better Turbo and some internal timing work to the pump, you could see 250hp and 550lb/ft to the ground.

proven power. plus it gives me a great base to start with

Might be picking this Cab, bed and frame up. The suspension, axles, tires are gone so that would have to be redone but it would be really similiar when i finished. if i get it its gettng painted first.

Wouldnt it be cheaper to just buy a screw and start over from scratch?

no, thats time that it would take to remove suspension, drivetrain and anything else that you dont need.

This saves time which saves money. I wont be using the motor so if theres no motor that save me time, if theres no suspension it saves time. Also 01-03 Screws go for 8-12k and thats rediculous this without a motor suspension axle or tires should only run me a grand. if it has the motor, trans and t-case then 2500 MAYBE. I believe it does have a fully functioning 5.4L though, thats a low point

this was a fully functioning Screw on 2.5ton rockwells and 54's.

Ohhh you are right. I had not thought about them time vs money thing. I think that screw looks sick though. Its too bad that those tires are already gone because those would look sweet on your truck too.
