That was the weekend we broke the trans on saturday afternoon, took it out, drove to Steve Cole's shop, TTS (Also known as The Turbo Shop) Steve rebuilt it, and we drove (flew low!) back to Vegas (got back about 7:30am Sunday) and put it in. Chris went out and then won the class later Sunday. That was a long Saturday! It's a great piece of work and craftsmanship.

I'd like to tear into a Duramaxx, see the internals. I wasn't crazy about the aluminum heads when they came out, but after driving a new one I was impressed.
I'd like to build a 7.3, they are very rugged engines, but they don't seem to have the aftermarket support that the Duramaxx & Cummins do.
