the 650 lbs now stock is the upper limit of the stock Allison
500+ horse and 800 ft./lbs + are just easy bolt-ons away...
but it takes a 4K tranny build to hold it!

It's a fast growing site right now in terms of membership, so there are alot of flashes-in-the-pan and "newbies" it seems...but the member base over there is a good bunch and quite knowledgable.
I've done business with a couple of vendors and members, all good experiences...yes...much like OSO.
If your out of Oswego...lets get together for some boating this season!

I've de-badged other than the Allison/DMax emblems.
I guess the plan will make itself clearer when I get the body-color handles/bezels in.

Rippem ---- You can't get the flares in Victory Red from GM so I bought a set of new take-offs (the smooth painted ones) and had another buddy spray them. R&R'd the black textured ones.
Got out of that cheap, $300 total with paint...
GM wants close to that retail for ONE smooth painted flare! (in the available colors...so that would be + paint to have red ones.
