There is also a cylinder size part of edit that may be set for a 5.3L cylinder size instead of the larger 6.0L. I don't know how much different that it would run after this is changed but it would likely be causing some problems.

THey do but they are inaccurate as they are narrowband sensors meaning they are only good for 14.7 +/- not very much, where as the wideband sensros are good from 10-20.

The O2s are still registering air fuel at WOT, but their measurements aren't part of any calculations. They are used at part throttle to achieve a 14.7:1 air fuel mix. But when going WOT, the PCM throws the 14.7:1 desired mix out.

sounds like you are on the right track, that truck is going to be bad *** when you get done. even with the big tires i think you will be mid to low 13's with it

i hope i didn't miss this stuff in previous posts. my whipple had a by pass valve, i never completely pulled the electronics but if you did it might effect that valve.

i am sure you know a smaller pully will help alot too, i wouldnt go over 6psi for your daily set up with the heat you guys have but you could always go smaller for race day and good gas. every 1/8" smaller pully was good for .75 psi.

seems like i was able to run low teens for timing but i dont know if i was really at the limit, with the spray i wasn't really pushing the timing all that hard.

im slighly concerned that i might have the wrong cam. (not really, but a maybe) after the install, my truck woudnt idle worth crap. so i know i got a different cam. however it has little to no lope what so ever. could it be just tuning, 6.0 and stall, and blower just smoothing it all out?
