Kept checking conditions over the last few weeks to sneak in another trip before it closed out. Forecast looked warm, but nice for April 18-21 so myself, @Reece Pettersen, and @Skyler McCurdy said let's go for it. @wesinls came to join us as well, my first time meeting him in person and was a...

About a year ago I was in the market for a truck and posted a thread on here. I was looking to go from my old half ton to a 3/4 or 1 ton truck. I ended up buying a 2000 F350 7.3 and it has been an interesting experience. Now I'm looking for something new(er). I've done a TON of upgrades to the...

Shake n Bake!  Feel like we should just dune through the summer

Thanks for taking this car in Logan. It'll be a bitchen car once it's done.  I think it does have larger injectors. They are not the same injectors as the other two sets I have from the other two motors I have in the garage. I do not know what they are though. But for boost this motor should...

It's one of the most incredible places on earth. Can't wait to go back. Where are you headed? 400 Miles is a great first time distance

Going to keep following up on this thread until the car is 100% just so anyone who is potentially having issues can reference. I headed out on Thursday with the sole intention of figuring my car out, and getting the blue alumicraft I put together all worked out (blue car in it's own thread). On...

Well the car made it to the dunes. Spent friday doing odds n ends in the morning and he went to drive it early afternoon and made it to the top of sand highway just to have it overheat. Burped the car and spent a good hour on sand highway making passes and the car felt like it had no power...

Haha, negatory! Got another power plant and going to stab it in tonight!

Welp. Got it ready to run last night, did a compression check this morning and has a dead cylinder, has a mean knock. Yanked this one and will call in warranty in the morning. Hopefully get a new one tomorrow and will check compression before mounting. Leaving for the dunes on Thursday…

Aaaalllrright. Forgot I haven't updated this one so here's one with where I'm at. More to come Pulled the motor out Yanked the radiator out Realized where the fan issues were stemming from. The radiator sat on top of the fan relay wires and they were grounding out to the...

I'm still hungover from Sunday night

Well all of those updates didn’t fix it unfortunately. Went from running on 6 to running on 7 cylinders so it’s narrowed down to 1 now, but I’m genuinely stumped. Sent the datalog to the tuner and he was stumped too. The only odd thing was the TPS sensor went from 0-8% 4 times in .5 seconds. So...

Here's some photos of how it currently sits and what needs to be done. Obviously I already pulled plugs, coils, blowoff valve, etc. First things first is to pull the engine and the radiator, but in the meantime I'm going to go through and mark every wire in the "harness" and replace all of...

Gonna use this thread to remind myself to take photos of the work I'm doing on this car, which I'm patently bad at. A close friend of mine has been talking about getting a car for some time. He's a fantastic driver and drives the piss out of his RZR but was looking for something that would be a...

It’s a cool little sled. Needs a new motor and some love, but it will be a ripper. Going to stab a new motor in it, do a mild rewire, full prep and see how it does. 

WANT TO BUY - early 2000s Alumicraft. Preferably 2 seat, but 4 seat might work. Not interested in other builds. Please send me what you have. PICTURE FOR ATTENTION and reference

IMHO Alumicraft is money well spent (a bit biased, but you'd be surprised how unbiased I am). Ive never driven a funco but have sat right seat in a couple on a few rides. High dollar 2 seat cars with giant piston punishers on them making north of 1200hp. It really showed me what those cars can...

Alright got it wrapped up and running. From start to finish it took me (with some help from my dad) 24 hours to get everything in from Friday to today. Very happy with the outcome. Since the Holleys are not weatherproof I looked at various options for mounting and decided to pick up an outdoor...
