Besides loosing the belt and idling rich the truck runs good. Made one wot run to the top of 2nd gear. With the radix 112 i was making 9lbs of boost at my 6200 rpm shifts. Now with the 122 and new cam i'm only seeing 8.4lbs of boost. Both are with the 2.8 pulley. IAT's are in the 160's today with a 85 degree ambient. This is with a fluidyne h/e mounted behind the front bumper. Idle is nice and lopey and seeing 15inches of vacuum at idle. Idles around 51kpa map. No kr at all. Tune needs some work but should be easy to get straightened out. Found out today my magnavolt and inline fuel pump were never actually working. My magnavolt was not working and also not allowing voltage to reach my inline. Good to know i was still seeing 62psi at wot from only a single walbro 255 in tank. now inline and magnavolt working so fuel is not even a worry. So far so good, still working some small bugs out of the truck and still needs alignment but it shouldn't be long now before i can bring it home for good. i'm pretty happy, today was a good day.
Oh, btw, the truck pulls pretty damn hard, i'll let wkdivr speak on that as he was riding shotgun. I think my cam might be a tad too big for this setup as i'm bleeding alot of boost but the power is defanately there. 11's here i come!

I can't ****** believe it, the truck is 100% done and back home. Snapped some quick pictures today although truck is filthy. I'll get some vid and better pics up very soon. Truck is lowered about 4inches front, 3inches rear and got it all lined up today and inspected. Failed emission though due to 02 readiness checks. enjoy...
