Nice little camper there BB.

My wife and I are seriously thinking about selling the huge 33' camper and buying a 8.5'x24' cargo trailer and converting it into a toy hauler. I was a carpenter for over 40+ years so fixing up the interior real nice won't be a problem. With the Hawk UTV and 4 wheeler we always have to take two vehicles to bring them all with us when we go camping. I can get a new trailer for under $5000 and could probably do all the interior work, plumbing and electrical for under another $5000. It would still be less that half the price of a small toy hauler. We are looking at one like this which is $3950. https://houma.craigslist.org/trb/d/8...472631660.html

That sounds like a fun project. My last turbo project was a 2000 Chevy Silverado 2500 with a 6.0L and a Garrett GT76 turbo. 6300# truck running 13.90's. @7lbs of boost. The truck completely stock could barely run high 17's. lol Talk about a sleeper at the track.

I had to leave my 5th wheel hitch in the back to get traction.

My dyno sheet @5 psi when I 1st installed the GT67 turbo. Never had a change to put on the dyno when I upgraded to the GT76 @7 psi. I pushed it to 10 psi once but couldn't get any traction to get down the track.

Adopted a second kitten yesterday for Marcus to have a playmate while we are away at work. Bella is the name of this one and she was born on November 23rd.

**cheesy** · 02-07-2018, 04:47 PM

Ah-choo, Ah-choo, Ah-choo.

Kitteze is one of my three allergies. Which is why my Dads' cat insists on sleeping with me when I visit. I'll put up with a bit of a runny nose and scratchy throat for her, though.

Heh the things we do for those we actually like eh?

Still cannot get over how much alike they look...Bella gives a pretty damn good idea of what Marcus looked like at her age.

**cheesy** · 02-08-2018, 08:41 AM

Yup.
We had a whole menagerie of critters when I was a kid. I always had sinus problems, too. Didn't put two and two together until I left home and had no pets for awhile, then found I could breathe. We'd like a cat but my wife's allergy is worse than mine.
We've had dogs from 1975 until 2015. Found out that as much as we like them, we like not having them even better.

Try as I might, after decades of steel tips, I've not been able to "enjoy" the switch to soft tip so I threw in the towel and ordered this. Time to dig out the old steelies and get my game back to it's normal horrible self.
