Swapped out some 50hp injectors for some 100's today
Those are good numbers.

47re line pressures when engine braking
My E brake shuts off at 1,000 rpms. I’d have to double check the speed. If memory serves me correctly I can manually grab second gear and the E brake will remain engaged till 1,000 rpms. I’ll double check all that today on my way home from work. I’ve just got Dynamics valves body. I have a billit converter that came with the truck so I have no specs on it. Ok. 3rd gear locked the E brake disengages at 30 mph. Second gear locked is 18mph. The rpm on both is 1000. While it’s still in 3rd locked I have to manually downshift to second before it disengages otherwise it won’t stay locked and engaged in second. I hope that makes sense. 😆

4" resonators/mufflers to quieten down exhaust
I was just checking out their website. They didn’t list any prices. I’m wondering if you could put Dynomat or some other type of other sound deadener around the oil pan and valve cover? I put some on the cab behind the back seat. That made a difference. I had header wrap around my exhaust pipe past the transmission. Had to take it off when I put my exhaust break on. Had to weld a flange on to bolt up to the 4” down pipe. Need to put it back on. Especially in this heat.

Here’s what I would try on your timing. Fuel load 2-3 Reduction 4-5 scaling 50% Light load cruise 2-3 roughly about 20-21 degrees total 1500- 14 2000-18/19 2500- 22/23 3000- 27/28 max -30 As been said your tire size is hurting your load %. I keep my truck in drive up to 55 - 60 mph. At 55mph my EGTS float around 550-600 on level ground. Rpms are about 2,100. I want to say my load is about 25%. Anything much above 55 mph I turn the over drive on. My brother in laws 02 has rv275’s and an HX35. I’ve got his canbus starting around the mid 90’s. Still blows black on take off and under lower psi boost. I need to cut more.- Proper Final Ratio
IMHO, every truck is different but you’ve left a lot on the table with that tune.- Quad Turbo Timer
Mine is set at 350 as well.- 16" Wheels suggestions?
I’ve got both. And as far as having an auto I’d still recommend both. My EB opens back up at 30 mph or about 1,000 rpm. I can drop into second and first with the EB on. That helps more but having nothing but brakes when it shuts off especially when an idiot in a car cuts in front of you the bigger brakes definitely helps getting stopped. The amount of pedal pressure to stop is significantly less with the 3rd gen. As far as mileage I’ll never hit what Mike can. As far as weight my short bed is lighter than his long bed. 🤣- It had to happen
Sorry to see and hear that. I hate dealing with insurance companies. You pay late you pay an additional late fee or they cancel you. But when it comes to do what you’re paying them to do they take their sweet a$$ time.- New Guy

When I bought my bone stock truck I was told the transmission had just been rebuilt. That’s all I knew about it at the time. Once I got home I pulled the inspection cover to find a billet converter. Brand idk. The only thing I’ve done to it is a Dynamic valvebody. And a lockup switch. With all my mods it’s held up fine for several years now. My pump isn’t tapped because it was under warranty. At this point not really interested in it. I don’t want to have to replace a head gasket or drivetrain components anytime soon. The only real towing it does is our travel trailer that dry weighs 6,000 lbs a few times a year. I’ve towed up grades any where from 7%-11% doing 55 mph.- Looming Economic Crash

@Mopar1973Man what was your average speed?- Got my truck back yesterday.
Looks good man! What’s the life expectancy of wrap?- 16" Wheels suggestions?
I have to ask, what is the difference in the 2nd gen to 3rd gen brakes? Sorry, to lazy to look it up this morning Bigger pads and rotors in the front. All I did was get 3rd gen caliper brackets, pads and rotors. The calipers are the same.- 16" Wheels suggestions?
Food for thought. If you picked up some 17” wheels you could upgrade to third gen brakes. Made a huge difference in stopping power for me.- Turbo/Injector balance for towing/EGT control
I’m running a hybrid I pieced together. Between that my injectors and a Quad it lights fast and tows like a mofo!- New water pump for the RV?
Mine did the same thing and filled the fresh water tank. Replacing the pump fixed it. - Proper Final Ratio
