ZDZ is like an Italian sports car. Sounds exotic and likes to rev, but can be a bit finicky.

Darn spelling auto correct. You surely must have meant John Deere.

True, nothing runs like a Deere. We use them for most of our pumps at work. Some of our 4045's have over 30,000 hours on them.

LOL!! Can't wait to hear what Mr. Durgan compares the GP's, EME's and DLE's to, LOL!!

Was gonna say they're like Ford's, but that's a pretty mean thing to say about those great motors

Re: The never ending engine thread, East-West

Well Planebender ran his new large Smooth pipes

I am not allowed to tell you the real number but a 30x13 evoL turned a strong 6 RPM.
He has not tuned the engine yet or tried longer headers. He just put them in place of the 3d cans so far. He is going to pick up some longer couplers and continue testing.

Contest: Guess how many rpm increase he got on the new smooth pipes over the old canisters. I won't tell the answer until dave reveals the numbers himself
