CUCV Hooked Up To The Sled

My brother took one of my cucvs (1031) to a local pull last weekend. It has the banks sidewinder turbo on it, 4 inch lift with 37 inch BFG Baja T/A tires. At the scale it weighed 6400lbs with driver. They put him in the 8000 lb class. Pulled the sled 227 feet, and came to a gentle stop. The turbocharged 6.2 just plain ran out of power and couldn't even spin the tires at the end, but it was still nice to see it hooked up to the sled. These tires work great. Great motivation to start the duramax conversion I've been putting off!

Keep me in the loop on the Duramax conversion. That's what I have planned for my M1008 also.
I will start a build thread here when I dig into the conversion. I'd really like to start on it yesterday but I am in the middle of an LS powered 67 Bel Air full restoration that must get done first. At least when I get to the truck I won't need to be as fussy!
