I pulled the old tank out tonight, damn that thing doesnt look big until you drop it out. I pulled the 255 pump out, i told the guy i sold the supercharger to if he wanted it he could have it since i have no use for it anymore. It had fuel in it and forgot my scales so i will try and get a weight on it tomorrow. Slowly but surely I am making progress. Anyone need a stock fuel tank?
yes i do hit overdrive when shifting at 4800.. but now its gonna be shifting at 6000-6200 so i dont think its gonna hit overdrive anymore
That is my issue, i killed the factory trans by doing a pull with od off and when it got to 5400 i pushed od and it ate itself. Dirty Dog said to never let it shift into od at wot, something about a band or something breaking? I am not risking it, hell i know what happended when i did it to my stock trans. We shall see, i am sure i will venture to a 1/4 when it is done. Do you have a stock trans in yours?

yes its stock but getting a valve body and stall put in very soon..waitin for the stall to come in...yes the OD band can break..ive been doing it for over a year and still no problems...maybe im lucky..we will see...ive also done about 8 passes at the track hittin OD..
After dragging my feet again, i am making progress. I dropped the heads off at the machine shop last saturday and was told today they would be done by next Tuesday at the latest. I ordered JLP stage 3 crower cams and a set of head gaskets from JL on monday and got them today. I am going to order the timing chains and gaskets tomorrow so when i get everything back i can get it together. This warm weather has got me motivated

My head studs came in friday and i called my tuner today and he said wednesday he can put the heads and cams on and get it in time. So this coming weekend it will be in the truck and everything going back together. I am so pumped i cant wait
Yes, after talking to JJ and JL i decided to just put some good stuff in my heads and see what happens with the new trick flow heads. i didnt wanna put a bunch of money into a set of heads to only have something better come out in a few months. If the Trick Flow heads are all they claim and a few people are the test pigs i will bolt a set on next winter. I can still reuse my cams with whatever i choose. JL said i should really like the cams 20hp over his stage 2 cams and a lot crazier idle.
