Was the truck green/yellow called "to the X-treme"???? real low? Dakota body i think. If its him he does real well everywhere he goes.... to bad its a bowtie under the hood  We've run 636ci b1-TS engine at one pull found out a small problem. Were taking it out. gonna put it on the dyno get the injection system working right and be ready for the 21st. Had to put a new trans in it too. Hopefully we can keep up on the power tracks now

is it the dodge truck that was in the first few pics? http://www.truckpullingunleashed.com/id33.htmlThere are alot of dodge trucks on the big circuit that use bowtie engines. Dixie chopper is another one of them. There are two dodge trucks called Dodge N Bullets. They both run 650ci with the 500ci prostock hemi stuff

Doug are you still running an automatic behind the new engine?

Ya i had a modded 727 built by fireball trans in ontario and a special torque made.
I dont see having a problem but maybe. it seems with running LOW LOW gears in the differentials (688), running the trans in 3rd, not shifting and keping the rev's down (7000-7500) everything stays together just fine
I didn't realize you could get enough gear to run high gear in the transmission. As asked above I would assume you must also have some reduction in the transfer case?
