So ok BUT to get these numbers where is the engine turning at , You have to scream the engine to get that . Now you take a OLD 460 Ford and they would pop out 500 Ft. Lbs at 34-or was it 3600 . Then ya take a diesel and your at peak torque at something like 1450 . Maybe i am just old and i am not into all this new and IMPROVED HIGHT TECT junk but how long would that engine last screaming it all the time to get peek power ????? . then ya look how they gear stuff anymore and you have to start dropping gears to make power and SCREAM the engine . Myself the jury is still out on the new 8-10 speed automatics , just more stuff to go wrong and once that warranty runs out Sweet heart your on your own . In my youth i worked at a Chrysler Plymouth dealership and two Ford Dealer ships , went thru factory training on the slush boxes and worked on many . Still have die hard old friend that still work in dealerships . My one friend that he and i go back to June of 68 still works at a Dodge dealership and when they came out with the NEW AND IMPROVED Asin or what ever they call it Denny told me that this transmission was BULLET PROOF . AH THATS A LIE , everytime i go over for parts or just to drop in and aggravate first place i stick my head in is the service dept and see what is scattered across work benches and guess what it is the new and improved slush box , The serive manager will get a chuckle when i look at him and point and BULLET PROOF . ya want to do some dragging then ya take a page out of the old Iron haulers hand book , and that is it takes IRON TO HAUL IRON . Best trailer toter i ever had was my 88 Ford F 350 with a 460 and a five speed . One clutch due to a throw out bearing failureand a ring and pinion failure due to a collapsed crush spacer , never drove that truck any faster then it would run and never hauled more then i could stack on the trailer.

Today's Featured Article - The 8N and the Fox - by Zane Sherman. Dec. 13 1998, Renfroe, Alabama. Last niht I dreamed about the day that I plowed the field of about 10 acres over on what Jimmy and Dandy called the Ledbetter field. I was driving the 1948 8N Ford tractor that Jimmy bought in 48 new This was prebably in about 1951 and maybe even befor the house was built. This would have made me to be about16 years old and I drove the tractor for nothing and would have paid to drive it if I had had any money which I didn't, but neit ... [Read Article]
