weld housing block
there is crack on surface of housing pockets which is made of cast iron i welded using nickel rods with pre & post heating arrangements but in boring process the hsg become hard, how to weld in future in such case,pl feedback
Sponsored Links | |||
Advertisement |
Hate to tell you this, but hardening is the nature of the beast when welding cast with nickel. To the best of my knowledge there is no way to anneal it either. The only way to weld cast and retain machinability is to gas weld with a cast rod and flux. Whole piece preheat, heat maintenence and cooling is an absolute necessity to retain machinability and to prevent recracking. It will still have some hardening, but not near as severe as nickel. The more you work it the harder it will get so machining has to be done in as few passes as possible. Hope this helps.

Saturday night the Turf Club welcomed the second infestation of local Girl Germs. Like lots of good ideas, it's a simple theme – local musicians paying homage to women in rock. That might mean Kitten Forever taking a pop icon like Beyoncé and making it their own. It might mean Aby Wolf striking perfect pitch of Kate Bush. There's something for everyone, which makes the case that women can't be pigeon-holed – they can rock any genre, any era, any taste.

Feature: Staff Roundtable - Metroid's Past, Present and Future
Primed and ready
25 years ago, Nintendo released the original Metroid on the world, kicking off a franchise that has hit incredible highs and suffered the odd low point too. Here news editor James Newton is joined by reviewers Jacob Crites and Thomas Whitehead to discuss the series, its heritage and where it might go in the future.

Having chosen the profession of saving lives, undergraduate medical students at the country's premier All-India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS) on Saturday took their commitment to work for the welfare of humankind a step further by pledging their organs.
Hundred-odd students at the institute took a solemn oath to donate their organs in a ceremony organised at the AIIMS auditorium by the institute's Organ Retrieval Banking Organisation (ORBO) unit.
"The institute's ORBO is the country's nodal unit for the organ donation and was set up with the purpose of encouraging donations, fair and equitable distribution and optimum utilisation of human organs,'' said a senior AIIMS official.
The unit maintains a waiting list of terminally ill patients requiring transplants, donor registration, matching of recipients with donor, co-ordination from procurement of organs to transplantation, dissemination of information to all hospitals, organisations and individuals concerned, creating awareness, promotion of organ donation and transplantation activities.
Giving details about the pledges, an AIIMS official said: "The youngsters came forward for this noble act as part of their social responsibility. The oath taking was followed by screening of a short informative film on organ donation to dispel social and religious myths associated with it."
Organ donation in India has been seeing poor growth despite occurrence of over one lakh brain deaths in India every year.
"We are trying to create awareness about organ donation by telling the common man that organs are harvested from brain-dead patients with utmost care and dignity by specially-trained surgeons, which does not leave the body disfigured in any way. It is also important for the prospective donor to share his decision to donate his organs with his family to make it easier for them to carry out his wish," the official added.

More information about B2G (Boot2Gecko) is available here.
So... I saw this and couldn't resist having a little sneaky play around with it. This is NOT a daily driver. This is NOT stable. It's pre-alpha. If you want something to use as a phone, this isn't it. If you just want to use your phone as a phone, you want this.
With that aside, and with the clear understanding that while this won't brick your phone, it's nothing to do with me if it did for some reason, or likewise if your cat (or other cute pet) suffers a painful death as a result of flashing this. At your own risk, like everything else here on XDA-Developers!
So without further ado, WTF is this? Well, it's a project from Mozilla (the lovely people behind the Firefox browser). I won't go into details, suffice to say I suggest you read a lot over at their wiki - start off at https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G and work your way through the pages.
Anyway, what is this? Well, it's a TAR to flash via ODIN (codeworkx informs me not to flash userdata partition via heimdall, I suggest you heed that warning, and this tar contains the userdata partition). Within it is a kernel (should have CWM etc), a /system, and a /data. These are not for Android, rather are for booting up this Boot2Gecko operating system. It's Mozilla's attempt at a cloud OS for phones.
Anyhow, if you wanna know how I did it, check out https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Moz...sung_Galaxy_S2
I've prepared a build environment so I can update it when I feel like it (read, when it needs it). So without further ado, your download link (direct link, should be quite fast):
Download Here
Video? See this post
What works?
According to my group of testers (thanks datagutt, and roniez ):
- Camera
- Audio
- Front camera (cannot capture picture)
- Video
- Wifi (see https://github.com/andreasgal/B2G/blob/master/WIFI.md)
I have no idea if calls work, but I think you'll need to disable your SIM PIN (if you have one) first.
Big props to the developers of this (see https://github.com/andreasgal/B2G for some links and you'll find what's going on)

Preseason hockey when it is 100 degrees doesn't always feel quite right. Then again, when it is being played in Las Vegas, it doesn't seem so strange. Where else can you sit next to your favorite players at a blackjack table? Last Saturday, the 22nd, the Kings squared off against the Sharks, at the MGM Grand hotel in Las Vegas. No, they didn't move the slots and tables aside and displace all the senior citizens from their slots. They have a 12,000-seat arena with a regulation rink they break out when the Kings make their now yearly trek to Vegas.
This year, the Kings have had a particularly difficult time of concentrating on hockey, as Garnet "Ace" Bailey their director of pro scouting, and Mark Bavis a team ammeter scout, were on United Airlines Flight 175, that crashed into the World Trade Center on September 11th. Most players admitted that it is tough concentrating on hockey right now, not just because of losing these two guys, but the overall sadness hanging over the world in the wake of all the killings. Craig Johnson, one of the few Americans on the Kings, said it hit him really hard. "I'm an American, I love my country, and I think about it all the time". Mike Ricci of the Sharks commented "It's scary...it's our job we have to do it, but you still think about all the tragedy, all the people, and hopefully people can get some enjoyment out of hockey...it's nice for us to get away from it." The players seemed ready to concentrate on the game on Saturday night, as life goes on, and the regular season is quickly approaching.
The game was quite entertaining for a preseason affair, which the Kings won 4-3. Both teams didn't dress all the regulars, as some camp invites were given a shot at making a good impression. With 60% Kings fans and 40% Shark fans, lots of noise and enthusiasm from the crowd at the almost sold out arena. Twice during the game, patriotic songs came on, and the crowd cheered louder than at any other point, as flags where waived and people stood up.
Owen Nolan delivered his usual feisty brand of hockey, hitting everything he could. Ian Laperriere did likewise for the Kings. The Kings need to get more physical play out of their scoring guys, Jozef Stumpel and Glen Murray. Both are big, and showed that maybe they will step up the hitting that is often absent from their game. Rather than coast into his checks, Murray forechecked well, especially on Nolan and Ricci. The Kings were without their resident tough guys, Ken Belanger (not that anyone would confuse him with the diminutive Eric Belanger) and rookie Ryan Flinn.
The Sharks' Finnish goalie tandem of Miikka Kiprusoff and Vesa Toskala appear to both be in contention for the backup role behind Evgeni Nabokov, with both getting action. Both Shark goalies were quite sharp, scrambling around to stop various Kings at point blank, as well as on odd numbered rushes. The Kings and Sharks had many scoring chances, with the Kings getting 42 shots on goal. Ricci was all over the place, getting a goal and an assist, as was the "new" Robitaille, Randy, chipping in with a goal and 2 assists. Czeck rookie Jaroslav Bendar delivered some unexpected big hits as well as scoring a goal. The verdict had been out on him, as the first 2 weeks of training camp did not impress much.
These are 2 teams that have been very competitive the last few years, knocking off favorites in the early rounds of the playoffs. Expect them both to fight for the division title all year, with a slight edge going to the Kings if Felix Potvin's rejuvenated career continues. So far in the preseason, he looks sharp. With the Sharks, Teemu Selanne needs to step up and get off the cruise control he had been on in Anaheim, where he lack of production could be excused from playing most of the time with the sniper Kariya. Will Selanne integrate himself into the tighter forechecking Shark's offense? Mike Ricci told me he is excited to play with Selanne, but once that goal scorer's aura dies down, Selanne will need to show he can play two-way hockey and get a bit more physical.

Jorge Vinatea Reinoso
This article does not cite any references or sources. (December 2009) |
Jorge Vinatea Reinoso (April 22, 1900 - July 15, 1931) was a Peruvian painter.
Vinatea was born in Arequipa. His first exhibition was in 1917, and by 1918 he had moved to Lima where he contributed with a few of his sketches to the national weekly "Sudamérica", published and owned by the former diplomatic and consular agent Carlos Pérez Cánepa. Simultaneously and until mid-1924, he served as apprentice to the already renowned painter Daniel Hernández at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes. He worked for a while as an art critic and caricaturist and in 1925 attained a teaching job at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes.
As a cartoonist, in 1922 he created the first Peruvian comic strip series to use speech balloons: Travesuras de Serrucho y Volatín.
Vinatea died in his hometown of Arequipa.

HOUSTON (AP) - Authorities say a shooting at a Houston-area community college that left three people wounded erupted after two men bumped into each other.
According to a probable cause affidavit, one of the three people who were wounded - Jody Neal - told investigators that a man later identified as Terry Foster shot him Tuesday after the two bumped into each other and argued.
Foster has been charged with two counts of aggravated assault in the shooting but not yet arrested.
Another man who was shot, Carlton Berry, was arrested previously and faces similar charges. Authorities say they are trying to determine his role in the shooting.
The third person shot was a maintenance man who got caught in the crossfire.
Authorities say at least 10 shots were fired.

May I use these to check in on the ship after I pay in full? I have never cruised before? I am wondering if everything is charged to your room, will I be able to travel without a credit card? Thanks! Midnightred
Yes. Everything you purchase onboard will be posted to your onboard account via your Key to the World Card. You can view your stateroom account on the TV in your stateroom or visit guest services for a printout. The only time you would need cash is for tips for room service, excursion drivers, or purchases in port When checking in you can select the cash option for your onboard account. Upon embarkation you can go to guest services and add or change payment types anytime during the cruise. Your account can be split among different payment types too.
When we cruise the Dream In Dec 2011 I bought Disney gift cards at Kroger-grocery store chain w/fuel perks! They had a special for 4x fuel point so it was a great way to use money we were going to spend anyway to get good discount on our gas for the drive to port from Ohio

Off-duty officer fatally shot bank robbery suspect in Atascocita | abc13.com
OK so from what I gather... Two off duty officers were working a side job as security at a bank. One of them shot and kiled a perp. Everything is as it should be as far as I'm concerned. The Off Duty status information release is the department putting the incident on the bank who was paying the officers.
AS far as off duty carry... it depends on the state and the department. My background is NY. When I was hired it was manditory that every officer be armed 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. In fact if you were found to be unarmed you might loose some vacation time. Then I guess they thought they were being practical and allowd officers to be unarmed if they were engaging in an activity that would make being armed impossible. (going to the beach) Then they included if the officer was intending to engage in behaviour that would lend to the officer possibly losing control over his firearm. Imbibing) Now it seems that being armed off duty is optional. In Florida where I now live some departments dont authorize off duty carry. These Officers must get a CCW to carry off duty. Departments who do authorize IIRC dont make it mandatory.
Ok so when I went to the academy guns were a big deal, and an important part of a police officers life. Under the law a NY police officer is responsible to his oath 24/7. Police officers were trained to act in an off duty situation. The off duty gun was purchased by rookies as soon as they could. (6 months in my case) The department would actually award three off duty guns, one each to the top academic graduate, the top physical graduate, and the top all round graduate. Guns were a big part of our lives. Often we worked alone on a foot post, day or night. That familiar weight on the strong side hip was more than comforting. Many great arrests were made by off duty officers. Most of us also carried a pair of handcuffs and spare ammo off duty as well. The off duty gun also served as a second gun on patrol if needed, hence the famed NY reload. When did the police become afraid of guns?
I don't mean to chastise or argue, but re-read the article. Both of the officers were off-duty...one of the officers was going to the bank to make a loan payment. They were not working security for the bank. This is a situational awareness issue for ANYONE, even off-duty police officers. AND, no if the officers were working an "extra job" (as it is called down here), the onus isn't only on the bank, but the department as well. It's called vicarious liabilty, however, I really don't believe there will be any lawsuits or liability issues with this shooting.
Now, as to carrying the firearms, when I worked (now retired) for the same department these officers do, we were required to carry handguns off-duty for the same reason you did. Again, a decision these two wisely made. I know many who never carry off-duty...I don't believe it's a fear of guns but rather, "I'm not getting involved and risking pension and other investments (I won't elaborate our pension opportunites here) to some money hungry lawyer. From what I've heard, the department has given the officers the option.
The recall hearing about Florida and some of the agencies disallowing carrying handguns off-duty as far back as the '80s. I would not work for such an agency. I'll bet those agencies do not issue their retired officers state "right to carry" or federal permits either.
Kindly clarify if I am wrong but where exactly does "situational awareness" (SA) enter in this thread? You see a robbery or some form of violent confrontation or firearm exposure going on it is because you see it---period/end of story. SA, in my thinking, is the precursor to avoiding or identifying a scenario that could happen. In this case, for example, if I am "going to the bank" or using an ATM, I am looking around and watching everything and evaluating anyone or anything that could cause me a problem--why?---because we are talking money and money means BG possibilities. SA at the bank also means I do not do any banking business, particularly ATM at night where an obvious advantage is with a BG and my SA would be limited as to what is around me.
I just fail to understand SA in the context of a robbery taking place right before my eyes.
Actually the story is confusing. If you read the written text there is no mention of officers working at the back in a off duty job. If you watch the video, at one point they say 2 officers were working at the bank as security and another off duty officer entered. So no one really knows what the true story was, other than a bank robber was shot and killed by an off duty LEO. As for off duty carry, nothing in the article or the video had any mention of whether LEO are required to carry off duty.
Freedom doesn't come free. It is bought and paid for by the lives and blood of our men and women in uniform.

If you think just walking into a robbery or being in a place where a robery occurs while you're there isn't SA, then I believe your definition and mine are quite different. SA is a function of life in a dangerous society today...do you believe we live in a dangerous society ? In this large, sprawling city it should be a daily function of anyone's life whther one crries a handgun or not....for the LEO or civilian.
The best part was the 2nd officer fired and hit the guy with the shotgun in the SUV. How many times do these things happen and all sorts of rounds are fired and no one gets hit? Good job by the officer. Seems like good job by all involved! And they saved the dept on ammo!

OK so the Officers were not working bank security.... I misread... sorry. However Bank robber killed by an off duty cop... still as it should be.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (INDEXDJX:DJI) is signaling a lower start this morning, amid reports that violence in Iraq escalated over the weekend. Conversely, oil futures are pointed higher ahead of the bell, with the commodity poised for a fourth straight day of gains. Meanwhile, "This week may bring some excitement, as June options expiration rolls out, including the expiration of CBOE Volatility Index (VIX) options at Wednesday's close," said Schaeffer's Senior Options Strategist Tony Venosa, CMT. "Also on Wednesday, the Federal Open Market Committee's (FOMC) most recent interest-rate decision and economic forecast will be released, followed by Fed Chair Janet Yellen's press conference." In today's session, the economic calendar includes a pair of updates on manufacturing activity, as well as the NAHB housing market index.
Futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average (INDEXDJX:.DJI) are nearly 40 points below breakeven.
Market Statistics
The Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) saw 1,154,670 call contracts traded on Friday, compared to 645,157 put contracts. The resultant single-session put/call ratio rose to 0.56, while the 21-day moving average dipped to 0.55.
From the Trading Floor
"Despite it being Friday the 13th, with a full moon overhead, the market's end-of-week action did not bring the excitement traders may have expected," continued Venosa. "Equities managed to stay quiet and range-bound for most of the day. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Index (SPX) continued to have a difficult time clearing the 'half-century' level at 1,950 -- an area that should be closely monitored in the weeks ahead."

Earnings and Economic Data
June's Empire State manufacturing survey and National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) housing market index are scheduled for today, along with May's industrial production report and Treasury International Capital (TIC) data for April.

What is RYSC?

"RYSC" is Ravenswood Youth Soccer Club, a branch of RYAA (Ravenswood Youth Athletic Association"
a resident of Adobe-Meadow
on Oct 1, 2013 at 2:08 pm
From their website:
Ravenswood Youth Soccer Club (RYSC) is a competitive soccer club in the Bay Area. RYSC gives advanced skilled players an opportunity to compete at the highest level of youth soccer in the California Youth Soccer Association (CYSA).
The goal of RYSC is to give the youth of E. Palo Alto and eastern Menlo Park, the same opportunities of youth playing in neighboring soccer clubs, by keeping participation more affordable. Players do not have to reside in these cities to participate on our teams, however, the majority of players are residents of the Ravenswood community.
The Ravenswood Soccer Club started in 1999 out of necessity. President and Founder, Israel Navarrete, formed the club for the teams that had outgrown the local AYSO league's competition. The club has always been a small club, not having more than a dozen teams at a time, but the teams have always made the club outstanding. The club serves a small, soccer loving community where young children are usually born with the love and passion for the sport.

RNC Backstage Pass: On The Ground In St. Paul
So producer Rolando Arrieta and I made it to St. Paul last night. On the one hand, we're happy to be here, and on the other wondering if we're in the right place — and I don't mean our convention workplace which is fabulous.
(Thank you Minnesota Public Radio, American Public Media; thank you NPR technical staff. Great building, great views, working equipment. Love you.... Except for the chairs. I can't say enough about how uncomfortable these chairs are. They are like the kind you'd sit on at a tent revival. But anyway ...)
Here's the issue: huge hurricane bearing down on the Gulf. At times it was a Cat 4 (Katrina was a 5). Now it's down to a Cat 2 for now. ... So, what are we doing here?
Go? If go, go where? ... New Orleans? It's under mandatory evacuation order.
Mississippi, Houston?
For now we have made the decision to stay put. There's still a story here, and there's going to be a story here:
Just who is Sarah Palin? And why is she the VP nominee, and how does she affect the dynamics of the race?
What does it mean to have a woman on the ticket? One way or the other, history will be made — we'll either have the first African-American President or the first woman VP.
I asked GOP strategist Sara Taylor, former White House Political Director for George W. Bush, why a "Hillary Democrat" would ever vote for this ticket?
... Pro-Iraq war, pro-ANWAR drilling, anti-abortion rights, anti-gay rights. Taylor made the argument that people vote on more than one issue (some people, anyway), and that they vote on character. And you know what? She has a point.
The argument is being made that people can "relate" to Sarah Palin and the GOP ticket in a way that they will not relate to the Democrats.
What does that mean?
Now, if anything is grist for a blog convo, that would seem to be it. So have at it!
More On Keeping It 'Real'
Did you check me out Friday night on HBO's "Real Time with Bill Maher"?
(One word: cold. That show's studio set was so COLD. I thought my teeth were chattering — were they chattering? Other than that, why can't that makeup artist, Brenda, come home with me so I can look that good everyday? But I digress, again.)
Some of you have already sent me notes. One of you took issue with my comparing Sarah Palin with Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine. You pointed out that he served as mayor of Richmond, a city councilman, and as Lt. Governor; unlike Palin.
A fair point.
Another of you felt I should have gone stronger on the point that her presence undercuts the McCain argument that it's all about "experience" because, if so, what's she doing there?
Fair point, but I thought others made it.
Anyway, don't just talk to ME. Share your thoughts with the world, via the blog. Blog IT OUT.
Rolando and I will check in later. It's a very truncated evening, as we discussed ...

I'm in the midst of Gustav. Luckily, we still have power though a lot of people around the state don't. The wind is really high and we have a lot of rain. Things in my neck of the woods are okay for now, but only time will tell.
Sarah Palin's stand against abortion leads me to ask why she had the prenatal tests that revealed Downs Syndrome in the fetus she was carrying. Amniocentesis carries a risk of spontaneous abortion. Why have the tests, why take that risk, if you are not going to do anything about the results no matter what?
I can not relate to a woman who will giggle at cancer. I was appalled to hear this clip where Sara Palin laughs when a talk radio announcer calls one of her political rivals "a b**** and a cancer". The woman referred to is a cancer survivor.
The Anchorage Daily news reported this on January 25th, 2008 http://www.adn.com/opinion/story/293639.html
Thanks ...you were a voice of reason and reality.
Too bad I couldn't find a way to podcast "tell me more".
Gerry --
Wait, there's hope!
TMM's podcast is very much alive and available to you for the asking ... and, it's FREE. Learn more and subscribe by clicking here.
Thanks for blogging.
Why isn't anyone talking about Sarah Palin's ties to the Alaskan Independence Party (AIP), an organization pushing for Alaska's independence or revision back to a territory vice being a State? This organization would prefer having Alaska associated with Canada instead of the United State of America! The info was posted on her Wikipedia page until it "mysteriously" disappeared this afternoon! But there are other sources. There are several video clips on YouTube. She gave the AIP an extremely enthusiastic welcome speech for the start of their 2008 convention. There's also a video clip where the AIP President says that Palin was a former member. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwvPNXYrIyI (also view the clips under "Related Videos"). How can a person who supports her State's desire to succeed from the USA be considered qualified to be our nation's VP or potentially the President? This is very scary!!! G

CTD Towing
So this is post could be in a number of areas, I'm putting it here because this area rarely gets much love. I'm also looking for CTD owners, not so much Hemi's.
So I have two parts to my question. Towing over 10,000 lbs, what kind of mileage do you see? So far, I've pulled a large bass boat (The day I sold it) which was jaw dropping shocking. The tong weight alone changes the ride to a degree I wasn't expecting. I've heard people say it felt like nothing was there, but this actually felt like nothing was there. MPG didn't change, still getting around 18. I pulled an empty cargo trailer, rather large tandem box, flat nosed. Pulled easy, but honestly I was surprised at the feeling of wind resistance, I didn't think it would be as noticeable with the 2500. It dropped my MPG down to 14-15 unloaded. Kind of shocked me. Third was around 10,000 lbs of crusher run, though not very far. The truck did pretty good. It was a bear to stop, but it was mostly city driving. What is everyone else seeing while towing? Hows the sway with the 2500's? |
I have a 30' travel trailer and get around 11 MPG towing it. But, But I always use my exhaust break every time I drive it so towing the trailer I don't have any issues stopping and am ready to put breaks on now at 60,000 miles. going with the stock Mopar breaks I'm not inventing the wheel if it ain't broke don't fix it thought. and I also down shift when towing.
hope this helps any thing else give me a shout out |
I love the exhaust brake on these trucks. I'm also big into down shifting. I'm thinking whatever camper I wind up with I'm going to change over to hydraulic disk brakes.
It's really cheap, most people are saying 1300 installed. I'm betting you could do it yourself really cheap.
This guy had a pretty good video. From what I've read, it cuts the stopping distance down by half with a 10k+ fifth wheel. My plan is to have them through in the install when I buy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ADzms2F5cfk |
I have the 2500 CTD (2013) with 3.42 rear axle. No sway. The only thing I've pulled is my 20 foot, tandem axle horse trailer (bumper pull). I'm guessing it weighs 3500 lbs. Pulled it loaded with furniture the other day, and I could actually tell something was back there. I think it had to do with wind resistence, however. Towed great. Dropped MPG from 17-18 to about 14. I've only got 1300 miles on here. I love the exhaust brake as well-use it all the time. Hardly used the brakes pulling the small trailer. I think folks that say "they don't know it's back there" really either have not towed much, or it's just a way of saying it wasn't much for the truck. Not knowing something is back there is perhaps like towing a very small lawnmower trailer with the CTD. But, for the most part, you should really know something is hooked up-the truck handles differently with bumps, might be a tad slower on take-off, and the braking is slightly different. Then again, I'm very careful and observant when I tow. I notice everything! Hope to buy a 5th wheel soon, if I can ever find someone that carries what I need. Hard to find anything just now (hidden rails, anyways). |
I have not had the opportunity to pull anything yet with the new truck but the previous trucks , the mileage varied with weight AND Aerodynamics, lots of weight and a slippery aerodynamic shape will get similar mileage as a light weight and trying to pull a "barndoor" aerodynamically.
a SRW will always have more sway than a dually with heavy weight but it is manageable until you are getting into the weight range that the dually is necessary. now that I have had a couple with the exhaust brake, I will NOT go back to one without! I actually was MISSING the EB when I was driving the Jetta TDI! |
I just towed my 28 foot Dutchmen bumper pull for the first time 7,640 lbs back from the rv shop. Only 35 miles. I could tell she was back there but compared to my 09 1500 Ram the difference was like night & day. The ride was smoother & quieter & love the eb when in Tow Haul mode. Best move i made changing to a 3500 Cummins....
There is no comparison between towing with a gas burner and a diesel as far as torque is concerned. Yes a hemi will pull the load, but it will always be in the mid-range to upper rpm's to get the job done. The Diesel will be running at a much lower part of the powerband and will be working without hanging it's guts out. As far as side sway, that's a chassis and suspension issue, motor has no affect there.
I have a 2012 CTD with a G-56 manual and 3.73 rear end 5" lift and a 24' enclosed sled trailer. Had it pulling 3 quads and camping supplies. It's a V-nose and I used to pull it with an '05 Duramax.
Off the bat I noticed the Ram can pull the trailer much faster than the Duramax could. It would top out at 65-70 MPH and it would run out of steam. The Cummins would go upwards of 80, didn't really have the balls to push it further than that on a new truck. The cummins is getting 11.2MPG loaded like that, with a 5" lift and 35" tires. Props to Dodge for offering the manual as well, I love the added control I get while towing with the stick, the exhaust brake works really well in the manual, Id say better than in my buddies LongHorn 3500. Thats about all I have for 'y'all |
