It sounded better b4 at idle, but Im sure its cause the car is idleing a bit higher untill I get it tuned. Revs up pretty fast though. !!

Naw, some moron got drunk and picked another chick at the bar, and then proceeded to try and ride home. Massive fail. He came around the corner and hit the truck, and knocked all of her teeth out. According to my neighbor (who works for the pd) they didn't think she would survive for a while. Then her fiance and his wife (who is pregnant) show up at the hospital. From there I guess it was damn near a fist fight. I tried to get ahold of his insurance and they tell me they don't have a policy for this guy. Turns out he made an ins. card and passed that along to the cops. Of all things my insurance thinks I'm going to give them $500 to fix my truck when they haven't gotten me all of my deductable from the accident that allowed me to get my 93. And that guy had insurance.......Now I'm waiting on the officer to call me and tell me when this guys court date is so I can go sit in front of a judge and hopefully shaft him......I hate morons......

BTW---I was in AZ when he did this.....

Ehhhh....I'm more concerned with trying to convince the wife to let me get the block, so I can start the 408 build.....the long and drawn out version, if I did it all at once she'd have me hanging upside down by my.....well you get the idea

Ok didnt go as planned, Car made 3 more peak HP but was slightly down every where else. ! Although as soon as I left, I got the dreaded SES light. It was a MAF default. Ever since I pulled the screen( It was damaged) and put in the ST clutch it has dynoed lower. Anyone think the MAF is the culprit?????
Now it was working when I was on the dyno but could it of not been reading properly?
