So bummed out. The om606 was gone. Only there 3 days. Oh well. The positive is i got some other stuff cheap for other projects. The car towed beautifully there and back 1:45 each way. Rear was a bit low full loaded with a diesel om616 on the trailer. Got a little warm if I tried to stay over 70 on the hills. I just did the leaky delivery valves tonight and it's running even better. I'm gonna get the diesel pump UK pump and run it on about a 250hp or so tune to try to keep it and the 717.668 trans together for awhile. I think it will be plenty to keep me grinning fir awhile. Its already so much faster than the 300sd and even though it's super soft it still handles great. I was pushing it hard through my favorite twisties with most of my tools riding on the passenger floor and a lawnmower in the trunk. Was right on some guys tail in a Mitsubishi Galant.
