You're right Phil - thanks. CRS disease better describes my issue than "dumb", LOL!

It's great to know that I'm not alone . . .

Oh well We all do it, and it's easy to forget about the brakes for those of us who have 6.2 trucks.

Its proving difficult to tune the lock up to work, nothing seems to be working no matter what changes are made. Things that would normally work on previous model years are not working for my 2010. Vortech said the same thing when they had it. People say its easy and should take 5 minutes to change a few parameters but I beg to differ, my tuner says there is no back door to get in and make adjustments. I'm sure it will get solved eventually and I know people with 6.2's have gotten it to work but there must be something about my 5.3's operating system. I drove it the other day and its definitely putting the power down. I'm almost ready to just have the lock up tuned out so I can put it on the dyno.

Nice dyno numbers.


Sometimes I almost wish I didn't have disc brakes in the back just so I could have more options for rims and tires for the track.
