Thats because you dont own a Duramax..

How many rpm's was that turning? Looks like only about 2500 guessing by what I can see of where the needle should be

Shouldn't that have shut the fuel off somewhere between 97-115mph?

There is no speed limiter.. unless you consider 200 mph a limiter.

RPM was 3075 or so.... high as it would go.

Pttf

And thats sitting on the limiter

It prolly got there quicker too....

I see we get our tires balanced at the same place....

Now this is a fast truck.

Can I play too?
Not going nearly as fast, but style points should be awarded since taking photos while riding a bike at that speed is a little more entertaining.
(and I'm just over half way to red line)

I think my problem is either the driveshaft or the pinion angle, Ive had 3 sets of tires on it now and all were balanced properly.


I get this really high frequency vibration after 110 or so that Ive never been able to nail down

I get bored on long road trips.
Throttle locks are awesome.
When I pass harleys I usually stick my arms way up in the air,
and my feet on the signal lights like I have ape hangers and highway pegs...
"Rowing the boat" and "swimming" are other favorites of mine...

Is that in KPH or MPH?

Km/hr. That is just normal everyday cruising speed.
Somewhere around 90-100 mph. The speedo reads a little low.

The first time I crossed the border when I was a kid, I saw the sign for like 100! I thought hell I'm moving to Canada! Then in a very sort while realised, it was KPH!

The speedo in my '89 chevy clocked 160kph, it had that dial style needle that let the white part carry on as another needle, I'd cut the word "fast" from a trailmaster decal that said fasten seatbelts and stuck it on the dial. If the fast needle came out u'd better put ur belts on, could get it back arround to 90, and that was with it out because of 35" bfgs.

Dammn '99 only clocks 180kph, have to refer to the gps on that one.

I couldnt get the duramax over 142mph on the gps with the 35" bfg's, hit the rev limiter.

dont trust a ford over 140kph on the guage, it starts to read more than its actually going

thats cuz the speedo was out

It would take the entire width of Alberta to stop!

u'd be surprised how good that truck stops, just dont stuff the brake too hard, shes setup for gravel roads (the rear brake bias has been adjusted so a lil stab at the brake will lock the back end up and you only steer 1/5 or so of what it'd take regular "steer it with the brakes")
You should see my 2500 6.0 stop, a friend was trying to stay with me on the hwy, his jeep cut out at 100mph and i have no limiter, so i backed it down to 80 getting towards town, then as he got close i did a lil brake check on him as he was passing me, i locked the back up and left probably 200ft skids as i shut down to the 70kph speed limit, he got a ticket a few blocks later for 90k in a50
I've never looked at the front pads, never used them. They were checked at the time i bought it for safety and were good, probably stil the same

hahaha, dad would be driving that thing 120m+ on the gravel

I raced this chick in a corvette on the interstate in montana as we left the fuel station, it was all good as i beat her to over 100mph, then i pushed the trans into limp mode and it hopped the back axel off the ground trying to slow down that fast, slipped it into N, reset it and got going again, we figured that trans was finished. I had a bullydog tripple dog set on the crazy larry download stacked with a powerpup under the hood set on 60hp

I beat a F-250 Powerstroke the other day.... it topped out at 90 mph or so.

He rolls down the window at the next light and wants to know all about my mods....

I tell him " Blocked EGR and a tuner"....

He shouts back " No intake , no exhaust, no lift pump, no stacking!!!!???"

I says.... "Nope"


Dude bummed out.....
