According to Brett, if I wanted to go for the 93 tune and be a bit more aggressive I could expect another 10hp-15hp or so, but you gotta put it in there to see for sure. I'm thinking about a 4L80e swap and some longtubes after the summer, as right now I'm pressed to finish my addition/garage and can't budget anything right this second, nor have the time to get into a truck project. I'm really happy with the truck. It's got a NEW 6.0, NEW leather interior, and is running real strong right now on this tune. I'm STR8 for now, although we all know it never lasts. Thanks for the props.

 

His tune has probably got alot more in her maybe 10 min to 20 max. I am curious...

commanded afr?
commanded spark?

She's ALL stock right? I should of saved your cam and sold it back to you! LOL

 

MAAAAAN!!!! I hear that!

 

I wish you still had the cam, I'd love to have it back. Really, the motor is STOCK. I don't even have that many bolton's, only a Magnaflow Catback and AEM intake. No e-fans, no pullies, no headers, no ****! Oh, and btw, I ain't got a clue about who commanded what , but I'll ask. We MD people gotta make a point to get together this year at Capital...after the summer, like in October or so when the weather is right.

 

WERD! Im building a garage too with a 2 post lift, tired of laying on the ground! YOU got any good leads on a blocklayer? LOL

 

I'll tell ya this...I still have my stage 3 5.3 heads. The valve seals went on the exhaust in a few of them (so they look nasty, but are good shape otherwise). I'll let you part the heads (for a future cam job) out if you can get Jason to hook me up on the mustang dyno later on!

I am certainly about meeting up, fall weather would be awesome. Once this addition is done I will be golden. I should be done in another month and half. Congrats on the stock 6.0 pull. The 6 you sold me is still holding strong! I have broken a few things around it, but not the motor yet! I say YET!

 

Knock on wood! I kick myself in the *** for not putting that motor in, although I know it would have made much more power, I was afraid of eating transmissions and such. Also, I was "hoping" to move into an Silverado SS, but just didn't want to take on payments. What heads are you running now? I'm gonna start getting some pieces together here shortly, but unsure on exactly what. Give FBC a call when you're ready for the Dyno, they'll take care of you. They are adamant about working with you until it's the way you want it, and have thousands of tunes on their hard drive to resource.

 

I have the heads that came with it....just staged 2. Dual spring, 2.02/1.57...blah blah. I wasn't to impressed with it for awhile, unfairly my 5.3 was "built". .20 over, SC pistons, and so on..but now that have 2 bar I am having much success at tweaking the "boost" area of this thing and I am finding some new power. She hauls for weighing in at 5500.

Eating transmissions...hehehe, it ate an 80e right off the bat. (bent flywheel)

Lots of luck!!! let me know if you need anything! I stillhave two DS's in my shed.

 

Running 20" wheels has very little effect on dyno numbers.I dyno'd my truck with my 20x9 Bazos+ 275/45/20 tires, then unstrapped it and bolted up my stock 16" wheels and only made 5rwhp/7rwtq more...but that could of been just from the truck cooling down.

 

Thanks for letting me know that. Honestly, this is the first time I've ever dyno'd anything as I'm usually not impressed by dyno numbers. They just happened to put it on the Dyno and wideband to get the tune right. I know that my truck runs about 3 tenths quicker with my smaller wheels than it does with the 20's, as they are 20lbs lighter each. I just thought that would reflect on the dyno.
