  Thats what scares me to. I havent run a GM gasser like this, but have run Fords at work. Not a fan of how they rev when pulling. Always puts me on edge hearing an engine whine like that when pulling a load. But it seems like these 6.6l gassers are built for it. Maybe I could adapt! :rolleyes: :chuckle:

Used to have a fleet of various model trucks when I was a PM/estimator/construction. The GM 8.1L was the only old torque monster. A friend of mine got a 7.3 gasser Ford and loves it. I haven't driven one yet. I had a half ton 6.2L Chevy i got when my f 350 was stolen right before covid and it was a beast. Towed our artic fox trailer fine but the suspension was way too light for it. I made two trips hauling stuff home from California. I sold it during the covid crisis after using it to tow my car trailer back and forth from fall city yo montana when I moved here. Put 70k on it that year almost all towing. It was a great truck and still my favorite pick up ive ever owned.
"Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat."
