That's really impressive, Ohio!

Had another busy day! Catching up on videos tonight. The Chase dude running the dyno is friends with my cousin's kids.

EDIT: Son of a.... when he goes to the "fuel" location, that is literally 1/4 mile from work. Coulda met Paul!

I just talked to my friend... he took his Duramax to a Kenworth tech for a rebuild. Really long story short, the guy couldn't make it run. So now he took it to Dave's Automotive. It'll be cool if it makes it in a video. That's something Dave likes to film... correcting mistakes.

Yes indeed. The reason I messaged my friend was because he listed his hot rod for sale... he said he's selling it to get his Duramax back on the road. Too bad he didn't go to Dave from the start.
