Took Brutus to the Redball Military Vehicle Show in Gilbert, PA. Convoyed there with 3 other trucks.

First time towing the m1061a1 since larger injectors and smaller button. Truck didnt break 950 to 975F egts. Boost hit 10lbs. Fuel pressure 175 max. No coolant or trans issues. Truck ran very strong. Could let off on large hills and get back in throttle and climb the hills. Trailer loaded was approx 8000lbs give or take. Very impressed with performance. We stayed around 50 to 52 mph to not over work the m35a2s. Soundbar in the cab is a game changer.

I havent messed with methanol kit since it was N/A. Next step will be working on the methanol kit and dialing it in to see how it helps with performance under hard throttle/load. If I could drop temps on the hard hills 100F id be happy. Cruising on flats loaded at 50mph im around 700F egts. So far oil looks great. No issues. Put about 320 to 340 miles on this trip. Since turbocharged about 1500 to 2000miles total. Attached are photos from the convoy and show.
