mile High Dyno Action For The Cause - 2001 Ford F250 Crew Cab Drew Marcum - Photo 34924793

Back to Article

Drew Marcum showed up with his 2001 Ford F-250 Crew Cab and spun the rollers on the Engle’s dyno to 386 hp and 754 lb-ft of torque. Drew’s Power Stroke Super Duty isn’t just built for the dyno rollers though, and regularly hits the trails near Fort Collins, Colorado.

Jacob Bonser showed up with arguably one of the coolest ’69 Chevy K20‘s we’ve ever seen. We were a little bit envious when we realized his truck was powered by a 12-valve Cummins with dual stacks rolling on 42-inch Iroks. Despite the huge rubber, Jacob’s Chevy pumped out 329 hp and 852 lb-ft of earth-moving torque.

Mike Ontiveros brought out this clean ‘99 Ford F-250, which laid down the second-highest horsepower number of the day at 996 hp and 1,637 lb-ft of torque using nitrous and Mike’s own custom tuning. All that power is put to the ground via a beefed up BTS transmission, but make no mistake; this truck isn’t a trailer queen by any means.

Mike Haller’s 12-valve Cummins had the most menacing lumpy idle we have ever heard so it was no surprise it laid down the highest horsepower number of the day at 1,005 hp and 1,526 lb-ft of torque. What really impressed us is when Mike showed up with his mobile dyno that also doubles as a hauler for Mike’s 1,005-horsepower Ram.

BulletProof Diesel was a major partner in the charity dyno event donating $10,000 to the Wildman’s to help Morgan fight her battle against cancer. BulletProof Diesel also surprised Morgan with cute little tiger that lit up her face with joy.

Justin Turner’s two-tone grey and black ’97 Ford F-250 Power Stroke had some decent power under the hood and did not disappoint. The single 6-inch exhaust stack belched out a little smoke while the 7.3L pumped out 453 hp and 732 lb-ft of torque thanks to a DP Tuner and Rosewood Diesel Stage 2 injectors.

Jacob White of Wide Open Performance showed up with a wicked tri-turbo 12-valve Cummins Dodge Ram owned by Kirk Taylor of Rupert, Idaho. Even with the injection pump and boost turned all the way down, the triple-turbo Ram still managed to lay down 811 hp and 1,151 lb-ft of torque.

Michael Hainey entered his original Ford GT40 into the Show ‘N Shine competition and was nice enough to take Morgan for a joy ride in it. Some say the GT40 was the first true American super-car but all we can say is Morgan was thrilled to ride in it and was all smiles when she climbed out of the car. Morgan told us it was very hot and loud inside the car but that she loved the feeling when it went took off like a rocket.

Tristan Barr of Loveland, Colorado, was one of the hard-working guys strapping the trucks to the dyno all day long with hardly a break in between the 80-plus trucks that hit the dynos. Tristan brought out a clean example of an older body style ’97 Ford F-250. Make no mistake though; this Ford is a workhorse that regularly sees trailer duties all across the county to rodeo events.

Elite Diesel showed up with an awesome single cab 2011 Power Stroke F-250 rolling on 35-inch Nitto Trail Grappler M/Ts. There’s just something incredibly cool about a regular cab truck that can tow the heaviest of loads and still leave sports cars in the dust—even with 35-inch tires!
