    This piping thing is getting big-time!

    Look for the fat guy with a beard in the red jacket at the front of the formation. I'm 1 row behind him and 1 person to his left--I'm a bit taller than everyone in that part of the formation and wearing sunglasses.

    My Stupid Truck

    Nah, I'd vote for him getting a Class 7/Class 8 single-axle conversion.

    This piping thing is getting big-time!

    A couple of guys from my band were invited to perform on the pipes at halftime during the Air Farce Trade School (a.k.a. The U.S. Air Force Academy) football game on 11/3 and I was one of them! I'm pretty stoked, since apparently our Pipe Major (band head honcho) thinks I'm a decent piper or...

    Not a bad idea--the $500 labor costs for an oil change are worth saving up for...

    For the Mac guys...

    THIS is possibly the greatest Dashboard widget ever. Maggie thinks I'm ridiculous for having an $2000 whoopee cushion, but farts are funny--always have been and always will be. :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao

    Cab off for turbo repair!! Pictures..

    By the model-year interval from your previous truck to your current ride, you won't be getting an '08 until 2019 so I wouldn't worry about maintenance on an '08 for a while;) :tounge ...

    That's not Sandman's truck (he's got a 7.3) but it's still scary for the DIY-types...:eek:

    cam position sensor

    The R/R procedure is slightly more complex when (1) the batteries in your flashlight are dead, (2) it's nighttime, and (3) it's really damn cold. Yes, all three happened to me and it was no fun at all.:eek:

    Initial Thoughts on Engine Job/Fuel System

    ITP Diesel sells a DiPricol Optix electric in-cab fuel pressure gauge that is pretty slick. They're not cheap, but it beats running the block/tubing to have a safe mechanical fuel pressure gauge. POKE HERE.

    Increased CCV fume volume?

    Not quite--I'm no welder, but IIRC you can get away with using a MIG welder but for the best results with welding stainless you have to use a TIG welder. There is A LOT more to it than that (what kind of wire/rod to use, what shielding gas or mix of gases, etc...) but welding stainless is most...

    Front Axle Seal Replacement......

    Try getting a hold of TailGunner--I know he R/R'ed the axle seals when he installed the Dynatrac hub conversion kit.

    air filter cleaning

    x2. A 6637 filter is cheap enough that swapping it once a year isn't a major expense.

    I want to quiet my beast down a bit

    A project I have planned for "one of those days" is pulling the interior out (again) and Dynamatting the beejeezus out of the cab floor. It's rather a large surface that resonates like crazy from all the road/drivetrain vibration so I figure that killing that vibration probably will quiet...

    Took wife and youngest daughter shooting

    Good work--If you think shooting is a hobby the family will continue in, I'd recommend picking up a GOOD .22LR auto pistol (poor-quality .22's are unimaginably frustrating and are better left alone) since that's pretty much the best type of firearm to learn handgun fundamentals like sight...

    Another stupid ?

    Depends on the tranny--IIRC the ZF-6 was 250 and the auto was a tick less than that (235?).

    An observation that makes me angry...

    Nah--Bluetooth headsets (provided one doesn't walk around with it on everywhere) are the greatest invention since pop-top beer cans. Individually wrapped cheese slices, while very convenient, aren't even in the same league as easy-to-open beer.;) :D :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao :roflmao

    Zoodad Mod?

    x2.:thumbs I just did the ZooDad mod a couple of weeks ago and I'm pleased with the results. I don't really track mileage, but EGT's dropped ~25 degrees on the interstate and for ~45 minutes work and some window screen I had in the shed, that's a good deal.

    Another stupid ?

    5 h.p. and 17 lb/ft of torque. Seriously, though, without a dyno, any h.p./torque numbers are pretty much guesses...:dunno
