Thanks for the info guys. That makes sense. I will be watching how this goes and how happy you are with this. I have been thinking of using one of these engines in a project I have in mind, but it won't happen for a couple more years.

No problem. Glad I could get the ball rolling for some people. I was kinda shooting in the dark with this. I had lots of "it should work, it could work, maybe, possibly..." but nothing definitively. I'll keep you guys updated how things pan out.

My next truck is getting one. Decision made

Post a thorough write up! Good luck!

Well, first pull in the work stock I messed up and ran 5th instead of 3rd... slipped the clutch about 70 feet then it caught and chugged another couple to 119 feet. luckily after the 2.6 trucks pulled they let me hook again. That means the sled was maxed out... used 2nd low range. Hooked right up and dragged it 272 feet! I was pretty stoked to do that well in that class. In work stock I probably would have done pretty good.

Good pull! Must be dialed in well already with that acceptable haze. I'm so sold on this

Nice! It sings right along. What do you have the gov set at?

Tightened the springs 3 clicks each

Clocked about 450 miles this weekend. No issues and pulls harder every hill. It'll keep going as much as I push the skinny pedal, but now it'll climb the egts some. I like it no higher then 1200 so I'd downshift and it'd stay at 65 to keep it in check. I think a little better flowing turbo I'll achieve my goal of not having to downshift. Haha. Coolant temps never above 205 even on long hill climbs. True trac dug in the sand nice too!

Did you change anything on the kit you used for the rear suspension? I'm running the same kit on my 97 and mine looks like it sits a good amount higher and I'm running 37s.

 

[6.9poweredscout]

nope. Rebuilt my springs and bolted it on.

Your truck is a bad ass donut machine!

Haha. Wasn't a bad show.
