My dad called and wanted to know how to take the belt off moms Camry.. I changed the water pump and belt on my sisters 00 Camry and it was a severe PITA...
Well it has the old school style bolt tensioners My moms car is a 03 or 04? Camry with the same size engine..
Well i think they redesigned the belt system cause he said it had some kindof hydraulic arm or something.. and my brother broke a bolt and the arm... SO....
She needs to borrow my truck to go to work tomorrow...
Im goin to get fussed at big time!!! haha
I told my dad that she is goin to complain cause she is goin to think that something is wrong with it..
"It doesnt want to go"(TT3000)
"Why is it so loud?"
"Its making this whistleing sound"
"Whats all these lights and switches for?"
Haha... so i told my dad that she dont need to get on the throttle hard cause i need to save my back tires....
They know about the Trans and Converter.... thats it..
Not the new 6.0, Turbo, and all the goodies... haha..
I really do not like anybody driving my truck... Im sure you guys know the feeling.. especially when you have this much time and money in it..
My dad always use to talk about this Mustang they use to have..Fastback 302 and automatic....
I just laugh... cause he said it use to catch a tire when you got on the gas hard...
i would tell him what mine would do..... but........
Anyway... its paid off and still has full insurance... but its got a thousand too many hours of work in it.. and i know if somthing happend to it the insurance company would screw me anyway...
Off Soap Box.......

Hey I have had my 6.0 for almost a year now
I bet your truck moves out for real though.. I have got to get me a new cam.. My just takes forever to come in and when it does Its to late.. I want a TR224 I think.. The one I have would make a good Turbo cam though
I tell you what, the best mod I have done so far is going from 3.42's to 4.10's, that is if I can get a decent cam in this lq4..

Best mod ive done is the Turbo...
Well... the 6L was pretty nice... For N/A the 4.10s would be nice.... but for the Turbo the 3.42s are good.. only have 29" tires...
You should try and make it to the GTG at Hattiesburg if you have the time...
