Well, I installed it. But..... the belt was too small...... i gotta go pick up a 3 or 4 inch longer belt tommorow.

new pictures uploaded to truck.xtremeownage.com.... bonus points if you can spot my blood all over everything.....

Ericmck2000

Truck is on dyno now.

Just called them, its pushing around 370ish at the wheels, they estimate a little over 500 at the crank.

Not gonna be able to pick it up today, I had a 02 senser die.

Exhaust is done. Headers going into true duel 2.5 pipes with 40 series dumping before the axles.

Need a bigger fuel pump. Fuel pressure started dropping around 11 lbs of boost.

That thing went lean before 6K and you guys stayed in it! It gets lean about 5700 and at 6250 at peak boost it's at 13.0 !! I would think your best bet would be to let off the throttle by 12.0:1

What pump are you running?

Ericmck2000

Factory. We just set the limiter to 5.6, and its shifting at 55. Ill replace that another day.

That's too bad, a well built 4L60E can handle the power you are making. We've used RPM Transmissions 4L60E's at up to 700 rwhp without any problems. Bob

Ericmck2000

Well.... Would you recommend a built 4l80e or a built 4l60e?

The future goal is to replace the LR4 with a LQ9 and pump up the boost and make a lot more power.

Ericmck2000

update....

Got a new 4l80e with a hd2 kit and a cooler(for free)....
going to order a sexy 3500-4000ish stall(Def not for free).

Then wait for the rear end to break(get another free part when this breaks).

Ericmck2000

Get to know a lot of people and ask around, haha.

Ericmck2000

Im trying to barter a few of my old 454s and that th400 laying around to get ahold of a 6.0, lol.

Melted a hole in #8.

Put some cheap gas in on the way back from a road trip, went to pass a truck, then ses lights started blinking... And it started missing pretty bad.

Drove 250 more miles home, pulled all of the plugs, left bank was all white. Right bank was all fouled out, #8 plug was dented in.

Hooked up a compression guage, fired it over and got 0 compression.

Pulled the oil cap off and let it run for asec, it just blows smoke out like part of the exhaust. So... Pulled off the injecter / spark wires and drove it back in a corner to be worked on later. Kinda surprised the broken transmission outlasted the engine for 4500 miles. Oh well. Waiting on parts.
