I think you definately need to bring your truck out to the Blackbear tuning meet so we can all see it!! :nonod:

thats a possiblity, i just need to gather some extra funds to replace the center section in my EWP. Im always all over the burgh in the summer nights. youll either see it or hear it if your out and about

Quik, that's f*ckin' sweeeeet. Very nice ride man, enjoyed the video. :nonod:

 

 

thank you for the kind words. if i can get back on my feet and caught up with bills i plan to toss a 408 in there and shoot for 1000-1100 rwhp. same parts just a better bottomend. my cam and etc was all spec'd for the larger motor to begin with

 

the combo for most part is a copy of Parish. i had purchased his cam and bought same turbo as he did. Add 408 to mix with good tuning and should have similar results

Yes,I do think you need to be there!!! Although it looks like you don't need a tune :D

Sweet! What are your 1/4 mile times?

 

And HOLY CRAP did that Camaro hook up off the line or what!!! :nonod: What did he run?

 

 

on that run was first time out with combo. i was still dealing with bugs. i broke before the 1/8 and went 13.6 @ 88 mph. my clutch rod had bent so i had no 4th. you can see in the video when the assend drops down. first i had no boost, 2nd was 5 psi, 3rd was 9 psi and no 4th. not a good run whatso ever. 60' was only 2.1 very horrible

 

camaro ran a 10 i forget entire specs of his run.

 

im still dealing with hydraluic issues with my setup so no track times till i can figure that out. when i do make it to track i plan to try my best at ET with 9psi then slowly work my way up to 16psi. I dont expect a very well ET since my dyno graph looks like a import. i expect high mph on the higher boost settings

Bad A$$ ride! I look forward (probably not as much as you) to seeing some 1/4 mile times.

 

Are you still running a stock driveline/suspension set up?

    • So I'm in the middle of a DOD AFM delete on my 6.2 L86 Sierra. I had a pick holding the tensioner but after I got the Cam phaser gear off I was cleaning off all the rtv and apparently I didn't have the pick seated far enough in. I bumped it and the tensioner sprang forward.  I think everything is good but I want a second opinion. The top of the tensioner is just a looped piece of plastic that rides in that channel right? There is no spring or anything is there? I got the gear and chain back on and it seems tight and everything looks right. I'm hoping nothing fell out.
    • My 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado suddenly won't go into 4 x 4 low. It will go into 4 x 4 high.
    • Yep, just a quick reference point.    My main point being I’d do a thousand other things before I’d pay 10k for a transmission.    Speaking in ignorance cause I don’t look at these trucks, what is it worth? 20k?
    • I think users are going to want to pick their monitored parameters, which parameters they want to see first.    It should probably start with baseline at a minimum and adjust to learned, but be able to overlay baseline for comparison.   A simple severity level would be able to determine what type of alerting is appropriate or user selectable.    Why not use the OBD port though?   I think a phone connection would be a good idea, push notifications type deal.   Number 1 issue is having data is useless if you don’t know what the data should be under normal conditions. 
    • I thought I would use your thread and add to it as I just did my first longer drive with my truck in the last couple of days. I drove from the Grande Prairie area of Alberta down to Edmonton and most of where I drove in the city was the ring road so fairly free flowing but a bit of stop and go as well in the city. Stayed the night and returned home and not too many stops along the way each way but every restart and certainly every cold start sets it back for fuel mileage. Why I say that is I see some people will cherry pick a fuel mileage leg after the vehicle had been warmed up driveline wise before hand and its a forgiving ( easy rolling drive leg for example ) and call that their fuel mileage which can give a false perception of reality. I was not heavily loaded at all but never the less the flip bak cover, rubber bed mat, various tools etc and extra jerry cans of fuel all way up to a few hundred pounds of dead weight so its not an empty truck. The cold inflation tire pressures are set more near the freezing point so once they are warmed up driving I was showing 45 front and over 40 rear and realize high inflation pressures would help a little in fuel mileage but certainly not the ride on our crap sections of highway. The weather was good so was not raining as that can really drag mileage down, in fact I had a bit of a tail wind on average driving home. Most people on here would never have driven on that freeway to visualize it but its got a fair bit of rolling type of landscape with numerous river valleys. For the most part I had it on cruise set to 62 although kicking it off if I caught it in time before it started down shifting and self braking going down the grades. Most of the more substantial grades its shifting into 7th I believe as 8th just doesn't have it. Total distance round trip was 643 miles and my overall average and I did refuel three times in all, figured out to 17.65 miles per US gallon. My best fuel mileage section refuel within all of this figured out to 18.46 and these are all hand calculated figures. I find if anything that the trucks computer can be over optimistic, sometimes its pretty close but other times its stretching it. On paper persay in theory the truck would have just about made it on fumes for that whole drive without refueling once.    Which made me think of the topic thread of the wonder if these trucks could do 20 mpg and that is a good question, certainly would have to be on an easy going flat highway, no head wind, the right temperature, not packing around a bunch of dead weight and puttering along even slower than I was I would suspect and going steady and not stopping to smell the flowers or take a piss !. It probably is possible but not without effort to attain that with the wind resistance and weight of these trucks. Of course on my drive most people are passing me if they have the power as per loaded highway tractors, never mind a lot of speedy vehicles but the speed limit is 68 and most are at or well over that.
