    Okay, here is what I would do if I owned that truck and was in your situation. I would put a drop axle in front of your drive axle to get your GVW on the truck up to 52k and get your 80k gross. I would then either tune that 11.1 to make a decent amount of power to be able to run 80k when needed, while building a nice 14 L Detroit to drop in that truck. I'm actually wondering if a 12.7 head would fit on that 11.1, combine that with some 14L injectors & turbo, I bet that 11.1 would make some real power and still get real good fuel mileage.

    Had to hit the big road again this morning. Momma had me working my tail off while home for four days. Grabbed a load 2½ miles away from the house. Can't get any easier than that! Headed to Brighton, CO. I'm am rolling US-287 northbound through Quanah, TX at the moment with this thing in tow... IMG_20200622_100452.jpg
