I wonder if all of the spraying caused the fins to bend more making it looser?

Thanks man...I'm thinking that if I ever get the LQ9 together it should flash up more like 3200ish. I could always send it back for a restall if I needed to also

I had an SS3600 in my old truck. It was a bolt-on 5.3, however I was a 4wd. It would flash to 3,600 rpm in 4wd.

circle d makes awsome converters, but so does yank, if circle d is cheaper then go for it but if were me id send it to yank and have them rework it to ss 4000. I have an ss4k i pulled out of a truck thats going in mine and the truck had a stock 6.0 and it flashed staight to 4000 and it grabed hard. Eaither way both will get you were you need to be.

I dont know yet, yank said $175, and circle d side $350, with money as tight as it is, I may go back to yank with it. but I like the way a circle D performs. plus shipping to huston vs out to yank in AZ or where ever they are now. yank would still be cheaper.

Nevada... I'd tell Dave exactly what you've got and what you want and he will get it done for you.

Ahh, yes Nevada! close. Yeah I am seriously thinking about just sending it to him. damn I wish i would have restalled it last year. $175 plus shipping beats $350 any day. I guess I have some thinking to do. I want to get it done soon so i can get some new times.
