Well its been a while since I've update my build. Dont worry not much has changed. No I still haven't swapped in the 80e yet

last night i had some free time so i cranked up the boost controller and did some logging. Got the truck tuned up to 9psi and it felt like a whole new truck.

fast forward to today, made a 10 hr round trip to pick up a L33 and 799 heads.

got back home and i got the bug to turn up the boost a little more. few more clicks on the boost controller and its at 11-12 psi.

and now the 60e is begging for mercy 2nd gear is gone but it 3rd is still doing great!

i blew off the vacuum line from the intake to the fuel pressure regulator on ^^^^ that pull. it got very loud and sounded like static in a speaker. so i turned off my radio and it kept going. then the bad **** started running thru my head. coolant gushing out of the head

So did you get the 80e in? And they transmission jacks that work really well for removing and installing transmissions. Haha
