Got on a dyno again this weekend at my buddies event. Done 865/1564. And laid down a 7.59 1/8th mile first pass. Then I got my Trans hot and welded it's self together lol changed the fluid and drove it 5 hours back home. Time for a rebuild and some coolers!
Got my swap done this past Friday and dyno'd 792/1750 on what I'm told is a very stingy dyno. Considering the operator had a hard time grasping what a lock-up switch was and why I wanted him to ride the brake down low till the charger lit, (single brake dyno), I'm convinced it has more in it.
Second pull was with him not riding the brake in the truck, lost almost 40hp.
Truck did run an 11.67 @115 Friday night. Lavon basically threw a tune at it and we headed to the track.
That pass was on my 35x12.50 Cooper Discovery mud tires, previous best on those same tires was an 11.97 @112 so it definitely is making more power.
Overall I'm very happy with the look and performance, a little more tuning and she'll be dialed in for next season! :woohoo:
I'll let you know soon. I have to move my father in laws dozer in the next few weeks, it weighs right around 18k without the trailer, should be interesting.
Any mtns ? Right now I tow with my 64/71/14 and it does a well enough job so as long a it's not worse than that. I would try it with a t3/t4 adapter to make sure before I get t4 manifold or convert my steed to t4 which should help it more I would think
I live in western ky where it's all hills. Most important thing is keeping it in the right rpm. Even in tow haul mine still wants to hit od and lock up to soon. So I normally just turn od off unless I'm out on a big road that I can run bout 70 mph.
Get that 60' time down and you'll be significantly faster. I did 7.23 @96.09 with a 1.68 60' on the old 817hp tune running 35x12.50's.
Since then Lavon has tweaked the tuning a lot trying to get the truck to maintain rail pressure and after changing to a billet 468/87/1.0 it did 849hp/1453tq.
I'd love to get another pass or two in at the local track before winter lowers the boom but that isn't looking too promising at all. :bang
