My Truck

[darnie1987]

well i finally got most of the stuff in for the fuel swap, i got the injectors cleaned and flow tested, looked good and are good as new now. got them in. the rails i bought wernt a direct fit but i got them bolted in with alittle moding. " i pray the injectors are lined up and sealed ok"? only thing i have left is to go from the passangers rail to the FPR, then take the bed off and mod the bucket and reroute the feed and return lines in the bucket.

One question tho what do i do with the stock FPR in the tank? ive read something awhile back about taking it out using a vice and slightly compressing it to raise the spring rate and just putting it back in? im hoping to finish it monday/tuseday then it should be ready to take to the Tuners

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!





the dyno chart was the 3rd to last pull he got about the same numbers on 12.2 psi so we left it there. runs like a bat outa hell

i regapped the plugs he was thinking it was getting alittle blowout. the truck seems to run smoother now i gapped them about .29-.30

what kind of tires would you guys reccomend say 31" to 33" on a 20" rim? im about due for tires. Also would a fresh rebuild and a shift kit support the new power in a 4l80e im thinking of having it done this summer, along with tru-trac

sounds like i maybe lowering the truck back own a bit, gunna remove the rear block and put the purple keys in and run a 30" tire.... should look clean

Truck looks great!
I am new to the site and doing my first swap. If you don't mind hears a question;

How did you route your exhaust?
down one side or? and exiting the back end?

I have a 4x4 w/ a little bump in hp.
Thanks! Brian

I was just wondering would it be worth the hassel to swap to a turbo cam?
