From what I know the Caltracs work perfect with the Hotchkis TVS, I did not install them so I dont know the details. When I ordered the Caltracs I told them exactly what I had done to my truck so they could send me the correct set. I do not have any results from the Caltracs yet but I hope to soon. The only other thing I am going to do for traction is a set of slicks and hope that it is good enough. The Joe Gibbs Silverado's are built a couple miles from my house here in the great state of Indiana. I went to their shop about 2 years ago and I saw that they crashed a Brand New JGP Silverado w/ supercharger, It made me sick to see that they wasted a perfectly good truck & supercharger. Later.

 

As of right now I have the Pacesetter LT's installed along with the rest of the exhaust. All I have left to do is pin the crank pulley and then I will go out for another test drive. I still think I have a fuel pressure problem but I will find out what my fuel pressure gauge tells me. Hopefully tomorrow I will have some results. By the way, where is the best place to put the o2 sensor for the wideband gauge?

 

The best place for the O2 is in the collector just after all 4 tubes merge together. Does your header have an O2 bung welded in already? Most header manufacturers weld them into the collector.

Good luck Brad.

Actually I need to know what the best location is to put the o2 sensor for the wideband gauge to monitor the air/fuel. Thanks.

 

I got my truck put back together and went for a drive, I did not beat on it just incase something was still wrong. Since my last test drive I have pinned the crank pulley, replaced the FPR, Changed Headers and installed my boost gauge and fuel pressure gauge. My boost gauge is still reading 3psi? My fuel pressure gauge is 53psi @ idle, maximum of 63psi while driving around. I also scanned my truck while driving around and I do not get any KR while driving around except for when i got into the throttle a little bit more and then the KR went up to about 6 or so? https://www.performancetrucks.net/fo...d.php?t=344673 I pulled up an old scan from last year before I installed the Heads, Cam, and Radix and I was also showing about 6 or 7 deg. of KR at that time aswell. I think the cause of the KR is from a lean condition so hopefully when I get the wideband installed Jesse can get my tune fixed. If anybody else has any ideas of what might be the cause of the KR or the low boost I would appreciate some advice. I am getting closer but I am not quite there yet. Hopefully Blownchevy can chime in about the low boost issue.

 

I was thinking about something, Stock Radix makes 7psi, 3.1 pulley adds about 2psi so I should have about 9psi if I had a stock truck which I dont. How much boost does the Stage 2 Heads, GT2-3 Cam, Airaid Intake, LT Headers, and no Cats take away from showing on the boost gauge? Maybe 3psi is all it is showing because of the free flowing exhaust that I have? Let me know what you think.
