i could but i we just changed a couple of numbers in the tune and it is all better.

i got most of the wireing done tonight. probably finish the wireing tomorrow and the vacume lines and the crank case evac. that wont leave all that much for this weekend

That's one hell of a truck, can't wait to see you break a dyno somewhere.

you have it in the back of the bed, I assume for weight, but what if you moved it to the front, thats 5 feet less of cable to cause resistance and drop?

yeah that might reduce the voltage drop but like i said before we just changed the cranking pulse width slightly and it starts and runs great. that problem is taken care of. i put the batery in the back just to make more room up front. the weight transfer of having it in the back wont hurt me either. i am prety sure if you are going to put weight in the back the farthest back you can put it the more it will help with weight transfer.

there was a time when i thought i didn't want weight transfer and just let the front wheels do their job but my thinking now is the more weight transfer there is the better i will hook and 60' even if the front wheels are geting lite. also the front end will be hard to beef up so if i can take some load off of it and let the rear work harder i think i will be better off. beefing up the rear is easy, just kind of expensive.

i hope to be done tomorrow or sunday. i got the intercooler pump mounted and all plumbed and wired. i have a leak , the pump has -12 inlet threads, i thought i could just use 3/4" npt and some sealant but that isn't working. i suppose i will have to buy some $20 fittings
