I did the EXACT same thing. I made my little get together months in advance, still no holty truck.

Don't let let them fool you Quik, Holty showed up here in a damn ricer. You can goto their party with any damn thing you please!

I have said it a hundred times, KICK ***, I am amazed, it was (is) one hell of an undertaking, strupping that truck down and putting it back together. And a big hell yeah to those cats for helping you.

not much of an update, but....

I got the truck aligned after dropping the front another inch and lowering the back another inch as well. Drives straight and rides decent. Not as smooth as it was but still good. I havn't had much seat time with it yet to give butt dyno results but its running good. My boost gauge must be off because it only says about 7lbs at WOT but when converting map to boost, i get 8+lbs of boost so i dont know? I didn't lose any low end with this cam, thats for sure and it pulls decent up top. I"m still nervous about throwing a belt and getting stuck on the side of the road so i havn't really been hammering on it until i get a new belt to throw in the bed for a spare. I put the 22's back on last night and i'm taking it to a car show tomorrow morning so check back for a ton of pictures if it dosn't rain. sorry grip, i'll have a better performance report for you on the 122 and cam in the upcoming days. i know thats what your anxious to hear about but i'm really just taking it easy on it cause i can't take it being down again for any reason (hint tranny hint).

Good to hear it is running good. If your boost gauge reads 7 and MAP from the engine sensor reads 8 you may need to scale the MAP sensor in the tune. Looking forward to pictures.

no, i'm pretty sure its my boost gauge since it used to zero out when the engine shuts off but now it goes down into the vacuum range slightly when ignition is off.

Holty~ If your gauge is not zeroing out when you shut off the truck, that means it is probably giving you a bad reading.
