Thank you it is really special to me. I am pumped to have Del involved. I cant say enough about how great of a guy he is. He will be building me a truck in the future I promise. I am hanging it up after Tootsie. I dont have the time.

Thanks Del I had no idea and I am sorry. thank you for the support with Tootsie.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

I am sorry but I am not sure what you are referring to this is new to me. I have a tunner that came with the blower. I am super lost right now. If it were not for my brother in law I would have burned the wiring harness to the ground already

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer

Put a test light on the wire that you have connected to your injectors/pcm/ignition. It should get 12 volts with the key in the run postion AND most importantly while the starter is being engaged!!! I got in a hurry with mine and connected it to a wire that had power with key on but not while the starter engaged.....it will not start this way, . I just purchased HPTuners myself. Looks like a big learning curve, but I'm tired of depending on other people for this. I will eventually get mine dyno'd tuned, but hopefully I will be able to do a "safe" tune myself....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
