Yep all new , cut piston , balanced , studs , and a 68.8mm cheetah from Fleece .

Just finishing breaking it in . Soon I will crank it up . Getting efi live next week to get me some tuning with 42 psi dialed in and some mods to the shift points and few little other adjustments to a few things . Vane position , Pulse width , and some timing mods .

Vids of the ricers crying will be coming very soon , and some exhibition pulls of the sled at the next event here . See if I can full pull the sled .

For the tune Im running (PPE3 )it is fast , turned it up some last week (PPE7) and crapped at how fast it was and turned it back down to finish breaking it in more. I had an ear to ear grin since I have 10 tunes and 10 only has 32 psi in it . I crapped on 7 , so I think were in for some fun when I get the 42 psi tune done . I just cant wait to make a few crazy vids and put the whoop on some ricers at the track . They really cry the blues !!

They come up to me after and say " Thats not right bro , just not right ....wtf "

Thanks for the welcome .

Had some bad luck the last week .

Water pump took a chit on way home from utah salt flats . I had to stop every 60 miles for water for 900 miles , got it fixed monday and new pump makes noise . Then turned truck up to hot tune last night and blew intercooler boot out . Went to dealer to get boot this morning and fixed boot and got on freeway after leaving and truck shifted from 4th to 5th and felt like it slipped shift and then started vibrating violently . Pulled over and checked crank bolt and sure enough it was loose . Sheared crank pin . called tow truck $$$ and took it back to dealer that just did pump and didnt tighten bolt good . All I can say is I hope the truck has got it all out of its system .

I try to look at the positive side . The balancer is still flying straight , so the crank is ok I think . glad it happened now and not at the sled pulls this weekend , could have broke the crank .

Black Cloud Racing at it's best .

Been one of those weeks .

Johnny
