Still hot outside (91* says it feels like 101* according to weather.com lol, damn Houston), but decided to see if all the cleaning my buddy and I did to the truck helped out. Just got done cleaning the MAF, Truck intake, Intake ports on the heads, and throttle body.

Looked like this... yeah its dirty but it had 145k miles of build up


Now its clean for the most part. MAF, truck intake, and throttle body was cleaned also.



0-100... eased into the throttle so it would hook good. I love my new tires . Torque converter started to lock up at 97mph but I had to let off because of lack of road.



And burnin up some tires

 

damn bro, looks & sounds like shes finally running very well!!!

 

looks alot better, what did you use to clean the ports and the rest all up? i hope you put a catch can on after that or it will look the same soon..

 

Im working on the catch can. It doesn't get driven that much anymore (only on weekends) so ill wait a week or two on it. I just used a lot rags with some brake clean on them to clean everything. Was careful not to let any debris fall into the intake ports.

 

Looks much cleaner, And it moves out well. Sounds great too.

 

That's a mean 5.3...I'd like to see some dyno numbers.

 

damn Luke, so sick. Trucks sound great and hauls ***

 

Thanks guys. I would like to get it on the dyno but my transmission kinda scares me right now

 

sounds awesome!

 

So brake clean is ok to use on everything? I am about to do the same thing to mine in a few days when i have the intake off
