Can Scrat Hit 3000 on the Dyno for UCC 2026?

Scrat, a 1996 second gen Dodge Cummins diesel, is headed to the Ultimate Callout Challenge 2026 with Myer at the wheel, and the plan is simple. Build it in the shop, keep it serviceable, and make it live through the dyno, the drag strip, and the sled pull.

This episode of the Power Driven Podcast features Will and Todd with Myer talking through the UCC plan, why it matters to diesel fans, and how it stacks up against King of the Streets. The focus is on real shop work, quick turnarounds, and a strategy that favors reliability without taking the fun out of pushing hard.

Scrat is getting a back half and four link while keeping a steel cab and a straightforward layout. The goal is to be around four thousand six hundred pounds with driver, chase a five forty in the eighth mile, and make a strong dyno number with a clean nitrous plan. Tuning talk stays practical, from common rail control to the debate between an 06 to 07 Bosch 849 and a Bosch motorsport standalone, with Haltech pieces already in play. Transmission work is front and center as well, taking lessons from Josh and The Godfather into a forty eight based setup aimed at holding power without slipping.

The conversation hits safety and prep too, from blown tire lessons on the chassis dyno to smarter safeguards that do not get in the way of a good pull. Competition looks stout with names like Lenny Reid in the mix, which is exactly the kind of field that makes UCC worth the grind. Testing in Vegas, engine work in house, and steady progress updates will lead up to the first week of June 2026.
