No I still have it for now. For what I was looking for in a Cummins it would be a 25k plus truck. Couldn't pass the deal up on this Dart. It is the 1.4 turbo 6 speed.. I was impressed on the test drive and took it home an hour later. Growing on me more and more.. I have a potential buyer for my 2nd gen. If that happens the 91 will be slowly getting redone.. and a 12 valve is 1 option along with a 440.. it will be a slow process. I still gotta get more pics of the ramcharger for you guys. Will take them tomorrow along with more of the car

I didn't say a built engine, I meant entirely stock cummins minus the turbos... A properly built Ford IDI can spank any stock diesel out there, but a built cummins will spank a mildly built IDI no problem. FYI though, a IDI can make well over 1200HP (no nitrous) with the right mods... Don't forget the rubber freeze plugs though 
.
.any stock diesel? I don't think so...
I seem to know of an audi R8 TDI that has a 500hp 750tq twin turbo v12 diesel that can run with almost any supercar out there... 0-62mph in 4 seconds, top speed of 202mph
and if we want to just talk about HP numbers...well there are some "stock" diesels with pistons so massive that you can set up a table and have a poker game going on in the cylinder on top of one of the pistons...
and for HorsePower? 109,000hp yes...one hundred nine thousand horse power! (it is the engine of a cargo ship)
can take this another way too...
you do realize turbine engines run on diesel right?
and sure IDI can make 1200hp, so can cummins...
I have seen cummins pull trucks with 2000hp. same with drag trucks...

All Star
I took out my ac and bought a belt for a factory non ac ram. It was to short. I searched on here and someone else had the same problem so I just found another belt at the store that works. I was wondering what part would be different on the factory non ac ram to shorten up the belt more. Is it maybe the bracket that holds the ac compressor and alternator?

Joint problems? It's possible she might die soon if she's acting in that way.

Sorry to hear about the wife's toe. That sounds like it hurt....
Just thought you guys would get a kick out of this f@ggot-mobile I saw coming home today....
Even the leaf springs were painted. And he had a single stack in the bed, which was weird since it looked like a half ton. Either way, it struggled to get that mass of steel and rubber moving.

Yea its turbo. Wouldn't have bought one if it wasn't. And the RC is in pretty good condition. He did good with it. Now just to get him to do more to it is the thing
