Well there's my problem ... do you think ?

Usually I wouldnt be happy to find this
HOWEVER
Being this is the way the truck was Dyno'd, this is the way it put down 590/690 on a street tune, this is the way I Video's taped it the other day,
and the way I drove it to work today, and it runs like a frigging monster ANYWAY

I think it's safe to say I was right on the money with the Spark Blow Out







One thing bout Denso's (and I talked about this in my other post), even when they're missing the porc they'll run great, even dyno great, but put them under a load (or massive boost) and then they'll fk up. Although I cant say for sure YET if this is why it was stalling under load, I'd say there's a pretty got dam good chance it was, hehehehe.....

The good news is NONE are burnt, no tips are gone, there's no sign of detonation, and they're actually burning pretty dam good.

WHY THEN ???
WHAT THE HELL IS IT 20's DOING IN THERE IS WHY ???
Kick self in a$$ for assuming when Ed said he had Denso's put in a few weeks before I bought it they were AT LEAST IT22's (I ran IT24's in Blacky)
20's are DEF TOO HOT

Solution
I put TR6's in gapped at .032, I have a 13 degree winter tune and will switch to that (right now I'm running 16 and the tune we Dyno'd on). I also have the new 3.5 pulley here and will get that on in the morn which will pull 4-5 lbs of Boost.

I also found out WHY my breather is sprewing oil all over, the PCV Valve is clogged solid
OR SOMETHING
Cant blow through it from either side AT ALL, not an iota.....

Something tells me tommorrow this thing is really going to be running niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.............. WOO HOO !!!

OH YA
NO PROB AT ALL CHANGING PLUGS WITH A 2.6 KB

(amof I did it in the pitch dark with a drop light in the driveway)

All I did was loosen the 2 clamps and pull the rubber inlet ell off,
THATS IT. Piece of cake and actually easier than the stock set up

Hell ya I like attention but whats that have to do with the price of tea in china ? Yes I posted a few days back asking what Gap I should use and then last night I posted to show what I found and talk about that.
I'm sorry if that upset anyone, I truly am.
Steve, Doug, or Brooks if you want to merge them I'm ok with that, sorry ...

01 I agree on the fragile Denso's, they seem to be fine for certain power levels and set ups, but as the years have passed and the HP and ET's have grown they unfortunately have proved to not be able to handle it for many L owners. As far as idle and response I dont think there's a better plug out there, and for the big boys changing them after ever run I guess there ok for that too, BUT for the price and continued porc eating they have become known for I sure cant use them anymore. I think it's Cylinder Pressure that takes them out but for L's under 500 HP they were always good to me and would still be a great choice for some I guess, just not me anymore it seems...

I used the truck A LOT today and it's running friggin awesome
I havent gone over 10 lbs of boost but belive me I dont have to to have fun
