White Knight - "Let it Roll Dyno Day"



Newest info here - Back in the saddle.
While the White Knight is back in one piece we are getting everything ready to do some aggressive tuning.
Below, Jason has done a quick dyno run to see where we sit. We are running 65 LPM injectors, compounds, twin cp3s, boost fooler, and factory ecm(no tuning). 633hp/1113tq stock tuning...Smarty UDC will go in this week and we'll see how it does on Saturday.






A re-cap for those just coming in the door... On March 15th, 2014, we attended the ATS Diesel Performance "Let It Roll Dyno Day" in Arvada, CO with our 2004.5 Dodge 5.9L Cummins. Just as it hit 1220 hp and 2200 lbs. ft tq, all hell broke loose. The engine exploded just as it was really hitting it's stride! Shrapnel everywhere!




We can rebuild him. We have the technology. We can make him better than he was. Better...stronger...faster. (For significantly less than 6 million dollars).

Towed home on a trailer... debris and parts still falling out. We push our Dodge into our workshop to start dismantling and see just how much damage has been done. We were lucky that the CFM elbow exploding didn't put a bigger hole in the hood. Shrapnel, fused metal, connecting rods and cam shaft that look like they were cut through with a hot butter knife...

The engine pulled, we can see just how devestating things got. A volleyball sized hole on either side of the engine block.
