  1. So I’m running through the pros and cons of tapping my VP. My main thinking is it’d be fun to have until I can throw bigger injectors in the truck and use the quad to tune accordingly. My main concerns are I’m not entirely sure of the mileage on the VP. I think it’s at around 70ish and even though the PO kept good care of the truck, he didn’t have records of it and I had to call the dealership to confirm and they were a little unsure of the date as it’d been a while and they’re system had crashed at some point making certain things not show. Either way, PO didn’t use two stroke, ran a hyper tech tuner and had an intake lift pump so I’m sure it ran under pressured and without proper lubrication until I got it. So am I basically rolling the dice by tapping it? Or am I at just as much risk as I am now running untapped?
  2. Here’s the most recent one I have. I should take more
  3. Exactly! And since our trucks are basically twins, I HAVE to go with grey now.
  4. Don't know if it will on it's own, but I've stalled my truck while in park after stepping on my lockup switch @Dynamic Jon, what's your take on this?
  5. If I were to get new control arms I’d go metal cloak.
  6. Same, have weathertech in the wife’s truck and they’re nice. I’ll have to look into husky.
  7. Damn, that’s what I was afraid of but the more I thought about it, the more I realized it probably wasn’t for 2nd gens.
  8. Cool, no rush. I think I might've figured it out through Carhartt's website anyways.
  9. Does anyone have these that confirm they fit 2nd gens? http://www.weathertech.com/dodge/2002/ram-truck-1500/floorliner-digitalfit/bodystyle/quad-cab/drive/4-wheel-drive/transmission/automatic/ I've been waiting forever for weathertech to come out with the fitted mats, but they only list them as fitting the 2002 1500's. What's weird is if you change the year to 2001 1500, they're no longer as option so I'm wondering if they think a 2002 is actually a 3rd gen?
  10. Do you remember the part number for the seat covers? I didn't think there would be so many to choose from lol
  11. Gotcha, so basically the same as doing a coolant flush but with a little more potent soap.
  12. What all needs to be done to clean the cooling system after a blown HG?
  13. Yup! The fan will blow everything that was caught in the puke bottle all over and it’s a PITA to get clean.
  14. Ugghhh! I’ve been debating on getting these forever but could never find good pics! Thanks! Where’d you get them?
  15. Yup they have a PBY on display at the museum. Would’ve been fun to see that. I imagine the commissary is probably in about the same location as it was back then too! Haha
  16. Nice, I’m on Whidbey as well!
  17. Ok I see what you mean. I thought that even having pump settings on, it wouldn’t matter if the pump isn’t tapped? Im debating getting a stealth plate to tap my pump just to have a little fun. You think I’d notice a big jump in performance with just stock injectors and HX?
  18. I work with a couple guys, one who has a brand new duramax 2500 and the other brand new f350 dually. I’ve never owned a ford but man that thing looks real nice, and the interior is amazing. I think I’d go that route if I were gonna drop major coin on a truck.
  19. What settings did you need to change for the wiretap Mike? I’ve been fooling around with the quad settings a bit all week and not sure what you mean? Also if you were to ever want to ‘untap’ would you just remove the wire and take out the rap screw and be done? Or maybe a shorter screw with some rtv or something to sorta seal it off?
  20. I wouldn’t worry about the seal job you did on top of the fuel basket. Even if it leaked it wouldn’t have an affect on your fuel system. You’re just concerned with the actual suction lines themselves being solid.
  21. Thanks for this!
  22. I’m sure that’s gotta help some!
  23. Oh I know John! Theres only a handful of people on the forums that I can read what they post and know I don’t need to fact check, you’re one of em. I just wanted to see pics
