10 an bungs welded to valve covers

Dual 525 huron speed pumps installed, fairly simple just used my same wires i already had ran. It came with the pins and plug so all i had to do was pin the wires in the plug.

Huron speed stepping there game up, i know the old style you had to put your stock fuel level sender on. This one came with it already installed

Everything bolted and riveted

Changed from the bs spacer the kit came with to this ict bilet plate

10 an to valve covers

Back to catch can


Pumps are in, 8an is much better, only thing left is to change the injectors but ill do that on the dyno and i have to put fresh oil. I also changed my plugs as my tuner wanted to to tighten up my gap to 20

I also have to pull the tranny again because for some reason my rear main seal blew again and my tuner said it was the way I had my catch can installed. Said it was causing to much pressure in the crankcase. No biggie though, we will put it on the lift this weekend and slap that seal on and stick the injectors in and get it back on the dyno

Update, so see how the sensor is vertical instead of horizontal. That didnt work out well for me, the truck always thougjt it was full of gas and even taking it out the truck and holding it upright the float was to heavy to let the sensor even go to the empty position so i cut the 2 rivets out and turned the sensor to an upright position like the factory unit and i had to drill hold in the bracket and lower it down for it to read accurately once i did that.

-10 AN lines for the PCV system will remedy the seal problem.
I got lucky with mine and it blew the dipstick out before it pushed a seal out.
Some things it's a good idea to go overkill on like PCV systems, fuel systems, etc.

That's exactly what I did, welded 10an bungs to the valve covers and put a new catch can with a filter. I was to late tho. It already pushed on the seal. My dip stip is bolted down nice and tight so it wasnt coming out. It has a steady drip where the trans bolts to the block and my tuner told me thats what happened. I guess when we put it on the dyno and pushed it a little it had to let the pressure out some how.

Put the truck on the lift yesterday at the tuners place and we changed the rear main seal and cleaned everything real well while we had it in the air and Crunk it while the trans was off and all was good so we put it back together and took it for a spin and fuel duty cycle dropped to 74 percent with just changing the pumps and running the 8an lines. Next week we're putting the bosch 210's in it and also putting fans on the trans cooler and changing the transmission lines to 6an lines to get rid of the bs hard line cut with rubber lines into the cooler then we're putting it back on the dyno. It did 50 mph burn out on 15 psi yesterday so it's pretty fun already.

Patiently waiting on the new dyno numbers, went ahead and changed the transmission lines to 6an while I was at it and put tru cool fans on the transcooler considering I'm in Louisiana and the heat is ridiculous. I did end up getting the bosch 210 injectors to go along with the dual 525 pumps so I should have plenty fuel now.

You can get that same sensor for $20 on fleabay….just make sure its 0-100psi……..and that extra $80 u just saved can go towards an intercooler……ive had GREAT results with mishimoto intercoolers and they are alot cheaper than the treadstone ones , but if it makes you sleep better at night , go with whattcha know!!! Good luck man!!!!……were all waiting patiently for them final (for now) numbers!!!

damn I'm a little to late seeing this, I ordered the stuff yesterday and I'm patiently waiting too. Next will be upgrading all my brakes and putting traction bars under the truck. I haven't had any stopping power or traction issues at the track previously but my power level should be a good 250 more to the wheels since the last time I took it to track so it's definitely not going to hurt to put those things on but I'll still dyno and track it with the current brakes and no caltracs

It's worth about $3, junk ****. Had several of these lowdollar sensors come through the shop and every single one of them was the most unstable most unreliable POS I've ever seen. I've got to wonder what tuner is actually recommending these things...

I'll never understand why people skimp on a MAP sensor. It's only the most important sensor on the whole engine!
