Here is a vid of a truck we just finished. This was a test hook in Kent City Mi. Its going to take a few small adjustments but i was real happy for its very first hook on our build. It took fourth place in the 3.0 Hot Diesel class. Never mind the guy behind the mic, He had no clue what he was talking about.

Congrats Tony! It runs great and the motor felt good. Get a couple of little things taken care of and it will be a strong competitor. It is a sharp truck and you should be proud.

Wow, sweet truck. I'm really beginning to think I should have went with a Danville turbo, I really like how they take a big interest in the stuff they sell. Keep up the good work guys.

Nice hooks on those trucks.

For the rest of you way to ruin a thread. There is still a ton of unknowns about building dmaxs and failures are to be expected a long the way. And if you can't except that put your truck back to mostly stock instead of pushing the edge.

X2 Its in your tuning, but that issues seems to be mostly on the LMMs.

I'm pretty sure I saw that truck on my way home from work Thur afternoon going west on I-94, on a trailer. If I'm wrong Tony, please correct me though. The first thing I thought was another sweet truck heading back from Tony's shop. I really like the look of that 4" lift on our trucks. I might have to talk to you in the spring Tony about one.

Replace your vvt with a fixed vane turbo.

This was last night's pull were they got to try their new turbo setup since the last turbo didn't hold up so well, lol. Built them a really nice custom turbo and they are extremely happy with it. So far they are 6 for 6pulls! Keep up the great job guys.

Was a 2.8 GT4294R and now one of my custom 3.0 S400 divorced gate. It is a sweet turbo setup that works very nicely.

That was Jim Kilburn and your probably right being he is from Ohio and he is one of my stock motor guys. I was surprised to see that he went all the way down to Goergia to hook!

That truck is awsome and it shows the kind of work All Seasons does. The only problem I see is Black Max is going to scare away all the other competitors. The class seems pretty small as it is.

And he wants more and more power. I tried to tell him he dont need all that power right now. He is upset if second place is closer than fourty feet.

LOL It's great to win but if you beat on every too bad every time, the other kids take there toys home and don't want to play anymore. That being said, I really want my truck to run like that. :D
