How fast have you gone in your truck?
workinprogress and i went exactly 130mph in his truck last week. i had autotap running too, it was at 5000 rpms. it wouldn't go into overdrive, so we lowered the 3-4 shift down to 4500. we'll see how fast next time.
also, there's a small dent or bubble in his tire, hahahha, doh!!
(admin, i checked email notification, heheh, j/k it should work now)

Re: How fast have you gone in your truck?
I had my truck up to 116 via the GPS. The speedo says 112, and the PCM says 110 (that's where I have the speed limiter set).
This is really haullin for an '02 Ext Cab z71 with just minor bolt-ons and oversize tires.

workinprogress' truck just has a volant,
with ls1edit tuning, 130 is haulin with those modes on an extended cab.
more than what i thought,
of course farmtruc would have beat you kevin, hahah
ya, 116mph is pretty fast for a z71.

Re: How fast have you gone in your truck?
i had autotap running and it said 130mph,
the only reason it didn't go faster was because it wouldn't shift into overdrive, i'm not sure if the engine had enough power to pull the truck once it went into overdrive, but it sure did seem like it.
what do you mean the fuel cuts off at 130?
i didn't feel any cut off.

136mph via atap, that was 5950rpm in 3rd, prety sure i could have made 140 but my rev limiter was set at 6000rpm.
didn't take long to get there either, i bet i made it to from 0-130 in 20sec. then it started climbing alot slower.

Re: How fast have you gone in your truck?
The speedo was pegged at 120 but I never hit the 128 limiter so probably like 126-127. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> I had to back off cause the wife was justa bitchin to slow down. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="gr_images/icons/mad.gif" />

farmtruc,
how do you figure 130mph, i have more mods than that and tried for 128 the other day on a short burst i did not feel a cut off, i did feel it later on when i had it set to 116.
