^cross your fingers they don't leak.
fought getting the transmission back in the vette for about an hour, only to find the pilot bushing/bearing was out of whack. got pissed off at my stupidity, cursed it a few times, and came inside. 1/22/2007 11:33:45 PM |

^ no audible leaks so far. i'm gonna throw em on the jeep this weekend and make sure they're good. i ground em smooth and then siliconed the inner bead so i should be golden. we'll see though.

haha. it was about even with my truck before. it'll blow it's freakin doors off now. traction through 2nd gear is a joke. breaking it loose from a 30-35mph roll is no problem. 2/16/2007 8:04:51 PM |
Jeepman All American 5882 Posts user info edit post |
have you tuned the dually? 2/16/2007 8:10:03 PM |
BigBlueRam All American 16852 Posts user info edit post |
oh, yeah... my 7.3 has a full banks kit. bigger turbo, exhaust, chip, etc.
it also weighs a good 2.5-3k more than my dad's 6.0. we were pretty even in a race before this.
this was his b-day present.
chip/tuner technology has come a long way in recent years and there is alot better stuff than the chip i currently have. i'm going to be doing something else with it sometime to get a little more. probably a custom tune from http://www.dptuner.com .

had the local stereo shop hardwire my Valentine 1. worth $40 not to have to fuck with it myself.
gonna wash it as soon as the coming rain passes, and i've been looking and trying to decide which exhaust I want to put on it, and how I want to handle boost control (electronic vs manual valve and steam gauge). the biggest criteria is which one is easier (and less intrusive) to install and remove, as I'll be doing it any time the car goes anywhere near a dealer. 2/19/2007 2:57:27 PM |
