next trip im gonna up it to 3800 and see what happens lol. total boost is 15lbs for now since its on pumpgas
Very nice! I run 3.08 gears also. Can you tell me how the MSD2 step works, is it on the stock ECM? I run a TH350 trans, and want to install trans break, and 2step, but got no idea how it works.

no im running the msd6010 ign box and accel dfi gen 7 for the fueling side of it. the 2 step is just a ignition cut. the way mine is setup is i footbrake it into the lights and get onto the t-brake button which obviously has the brake wired into and it activates the 2 step as well.

Went to install the belt and it didnt fit; too small. Swaped the Truck tensioner pulley with an f-body pulley I had and the beld slid on no problem.


Thanks again, definetly saved me some time/trips to the auto parts store!

I'm sure it is nice to drive, but a 9 second car is a "handful" <------compliment lol....what kind of suspension do got underneath it? My buddys 5.0 has terrible wheel hop and I'm wondering what you've done to help that small wheelbase...

bigchief its the older dfi gen 7 unit they made. i had it from my old 408w i had in the car

its minitubbed with dble adj control arms, coilovers, arb. it really isnt anything special i just hit the nail on the head with where my car needs to be. im being serious that its easy to drive, obvious if i hammer on it it can become a handful but i can cruise it like i drive my superduty.

well i went to the track last night again to try to lean on it a little more, turned the 2step to 3800 and blew the tires off haha. track was not there at that point what so ever. 2nd pass i couldnt even get it up into boost, thought i split a coupler but all are fine. pulled the turbo off today and low and behold both wheels hit the housing. gonna se what itll cos me to get it back up and running but i might end up going to a bigger turbo but time will tell
