Terry Biggs has been on a tear in his Cummins-powered Super Stock Ford lately. Back on June 27th he won the Pro Pulling League season opener in Macon, Missouri, then collected another victory on night 2 of the Junction Town Showdown in Osceola, Iowa on July 5th. Saturday night, he finished out front again. This time, “Deadpull” showed up and showed out at the Red, White and Boom event held at Dirt Oval Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois. With the PPL schedule technically already past the halfway point, the Noblesville, Indiana native has a good chance of locking up the 2025 Super Stock Diesel Truck points chase.

A brand-new Super Stock truck is on the scene… and it’s an absolute work of art. Ben Schimpfs’ late-model body Chevrolet Silverado made its debut over the weekend at the Red, White and Boom event held at Dirt Oval Route 66 Raceway in Joliet, Illinois, and boy did it turn some heads. From front to back, the next-level craftsmanship Premier Machine & Fab employed on this build is apparent. And speaking of front…you’ll find a triple-turbo, billet block Haisley Machine Cummins up there. Expect this truck to do a lot more than sit pretty in the Super Stock category—expect it to be a front-of-the-pack force.

Released on Friday, HP Tuners has just unlocked the MG1CS036 ECM (which is what runs the S650 Mustang GT, including the Dark Horse, and a whole slew of other late model Fords, including the Bronco, F150, Expedition, and Ranger). So what does this mean? Well, we can finally tune them (and without an ECM swap)!! Until now, those with late-model Mustangs (and the others mentioned previously) have not been able to adjust the tuning in their vehicles. Performance gains had to be achieved through other means, and unless you opted for Ford's performance upgrades, these gains were, to say the least, difficult to attain. We can't wait to see what this package allows for. Stay "tuned" for more info!
Zeigler Diesel Performance’s Justin Zeigler has been working out the bugs of his ’06 Dodge since transitioning from Pro Street to Super Diesel in the Outlaw Diesel Super Series. But after a rough start to the season, it appears as if he’s poised to go after those mid-4-second passes he’s been chasing. With recent wiring help from Exergy Performance, a new intercooler fabbed up by Rudy’s Performance Parts’ Nathannial DeLong, oil line and nitrous system tweaks from Firepunk Diesel, and a new Wagler Competition Products rocker arm arrangement for his billet-aluminum Cummins, Justin is on the verge of unleashing the truck’s true potential at the next race. It all goes down this weekend at the Bluegrass Truck Jam in Bowling Green, Kentucky.

Being a former diesel mechanic and fabricator—and more specifically, a 6.0L Power Stroke expert—David Farlow wisely held on to a tool that he used to make a lot of money with: a 6.0L up-pipe jig. Back in the heyday of 6.0L turbo upgrades, David put it to use nearly 40 hours a week. When he realized he needed it last week, he dug it out from under the fabric bench and began to reminisce. “How much money did this (and a few others) make me, and others that worked for me?” “How many of the products I made are still out there in the world, still working?” Then he thought about the people his jig brought together. The all-nighters, the weekend work sessions, the beds full of product loaded up, on its way out to fulfill an order… It’s proof that the aftermarket companies you’re giving your hard-earned dollars to do think about you, the customer, and their employees.
How many local diesel shops do you have? And how many did you have 10-15 years ago? With independent diesel shops seemingly closing up shop left and right, something has to give—and now may be the time. Current EPA administrator, Lee Zeldin, has changed the agency’s course and aims to revive the automotive industry by dropping the burdensome regulations of the past and work with leaders to develop “smart regulations that will allow for American workers to lead the great comeback of the auto industry.” It’s a change that one can only hope removes independent diesel shops from the crosshairs of the federal government.
