Also, The procharger bracket is not polished. Should I attempt to polish it myself? Or I could paint it gloss black. Ideas? Does anyone have any pics of a painted bracket.

Seen Roger do this a few times.... I am not this brave.


I just logged multiple runs and saw it was never got above 140-150 so then just set my table to pull timing if it got over 155-160 just to be safe. Still not even sure it would have needed at that those temps. Then again I have never seen them get that high.

I thought about getting my bracket powdercoated black and painting the bolts to match. Not sure how well that would hold up.

The guru came though and sent all the data that I needed. So I decided to go ahead and swap the injectors. Got the old fuel rail out. Started to try and remove the vett filter, ran into my first problem. there is not enough room to fit my disconnect tool to remove it from the stock lines. next is the Fast injectors move the rail to a funny spot. got the spacers and they only fit on the bottom of the injector. Will that cause an issue with the spray pattern? Then the biggest issue I ran into is I got the wrong freaken injectors adaptors . So its going to be at least two weeks before I get the correct ones. So I this point Im not sure if I will be installing the procharger on Friday.

Another thing this morning. go out to start the truck. and get a CEL. Checked the code and its P0200 Injector Control Circuit. and its running like ****. I shut it off. The injector clips are not clicking into place like they should. I may just get some USCAR pigtails and replace the stock plugs. Would it be bad to install the procharger with the 42s and a non referenced fuel system? Ill set the shift points to about 6k untill I can get the 65s in. Current IDC at 6k is 51% with about 20% E85 still in the tank.
