I've been looking for a tow rig to tow my 20ft enclosed trailer to the track and back once a week. My NBS 1500 can handle the weight but just doesnt have the power I need. and struggles to leave a stop light, prolly due to the gearing of it, and the heavy 33's.
Anyway, I have been looking on CL for a few weeks, and most people want a small fortune for a used diesel, or they have a non-turbo, which wont be much better than my current truck. Or they have a work truck that has had the shit beaten out of it.
Anyway, i found a few 6.5 liter turbo diesel 3500's and i have only ever ridden in one and it seemed to do decent towing. I know about the heat sink for the injector module, the one im interested in now, is a 93, so it is a mechanical pump.
anyway, wondering if anyone here has towed with one or has more experiance than the "I read about them". Again doesnt need to be a power house, its towing a 2000 lbs car in a 20ft enclosed trailer, with some tools and shit. but i dont want to spend money on a new truck if its not going to be an improvement over what i have.
thanks.
