Check out this truck we just finished

Rich Lovlie (white01) came to us looking for a new engine. He had a little nitrous incident with his stock motor.

Here are some highlights on his new combo:

Modular Performance shortblock
Renegade Racing ported heads with oversized valves and crower springs
Crower Cams
Apten Ported Eaton
4lb. lower and 2.76 upper
Dynotec headers
NX 100 wet shot

We just finished tuning it today. It has just over 600 miles on it. The tune is still a bit on the conservative side, just where we like it. Here is the dyno graph for the blower only and the nitrous.




Congrats Rich, you now have one hell of a truck! Overall, I'm very happy with the way the truck turned out.

Does are some nice numbers.



Does Renegade Racing have a website. I am looking into getting ported heads and stage II cams.

I don't think he does. It's a one man operation. I got them for Rich through Modular Performance. I'm not really sure how to get ahold of him directly.

Very interesting curves. There's 200 additional hp at 3200 rpm but no hp increase at 5200. How's that NX system set up?

Yes there is... Unless your reading the graph wrong. There is still 50hp and 50tq difference @ 5,200 rpm.
The blue graph is one pull and the red is the other. Hp is firgured from torqe @ 5,200 rpms. ALL dyno graphs for ALL vehicals should cross paths @ 5,200 rpms.

You're right, I was reading it wrong. Doh!
