Well the only good parts of the 2006 truck I have it cracked now. 🤦‍♂️

Happy Canada day to everyone north of the border! Last night took the 05 out for some 1/8 mile test rips south of the border 😆. First time out since last year. 2 passes 2 different sections of road. No rubber, no glue. Both passes were within .01 seconds of each other. If nothing else it's consistent. No cops no stops, made it home no breakage no leaks 🤣.

Hi Rob, do you work and /or have any info on the large sticks?

Well went out yesterday to Alberta diesel days for the Saturday events. The racing got rained out. But we still had a good time. Next year I think it time to come out more. Hope see some guys.

Im finally working through my long list of stuff to get done (moving gravel, pouring concrete, builond a small shop, finixng and seel8mg an NA Miata, ec ,etc, etc) so I can get my 2nd gen. Im looking to build a 600-650 rw hp 4x4, wirh and automatic, extended cab, long bed. I would *prefer* a hydroboost, but i assume I can retrofit. Given my hp desire, ive been told a 160 pump wont work ata ll, and that a 180 pump cpupd be iffy. (I have a list of parts including head, tuebo, cam, etc, that should get me there), but I have one question/concern: how to get a 215 ppump? I can get a manual trans, then have to get a 47/48 RE core, and reconfig for an auto, which is a ton of work on top of my alteady substantial list, or I have to find a 215 pump in the wild. The places ive called all need a 215 pump as a core. (I guess the 215 pump cams are scarce?) Ive seen a couple 215 pumps listed here and there, but folks want $2000 or more for a stock/unlmolested one that will still need another $2k in parts and rebuild. Thoughts or suggestions?
