It's the bullshitting about the "injector swap" that always gives 'em away.

I think he's keeping a secret ingredient to himself on how he's making so much power. I bet it's royal purple in his muffler bearings.

you can use one from the jeep...but the only thing is your wheel will be 15% to the right or left..if you pull the wheel it will make the blinker clock off...but it does work.

Exactly what does your thermostat have to do with timing?

Cooler heads allow hotter burns, ie more advanced timing.

Re: Built 4.3 turbo underway Pics will talk

I don't mean to jump in 7 pages back from something i saw at the beginning...... but you are using the vortec plastic valve covers with a turbo setup?? that doesn't seem very smart to me...... because you have all that high turbo heat right by plastic...... just a thought.... prove me wrong

lol dude i have been running with the plastic covers on my truck for years now. so have many others here, and so have hundreds of other syty guys who have swapped to vortec heads long ago, and even more who just swapped the valve covers because they think they are more visually pleasing than the older steel ones

Re: Built 4.3 turbo underway Pics will talk

lol short lived fun, i finally got theAFR's good again at 11, Took her out drove her 120 miles and broke my 3rd gear racing. I knew this was my weak gear it was a bitch to get it in everytime.

Good news
Beat a c6 vette
Beat a fast AMG benz who crapped all over an sti
Had a lot of fun drawing crowds
and didn't get in trouble with the law

bad news
3rd gear is almost entirely gone. Feels like i took the teeth off.

PM to Deeze49686. He's a tranny rebuilder who will do a good job for you on a rebuilt NV 3500. He hangs in the Tranny & Rearends Section.

Congrats on the kills!!

Nice, with that kind of power though I'd skip the NV3500 rebuild and go straight for a T56 or a TKO 5 speed.

For cost and availibilty reasons I picked up a NV3500 out of a 2002 wit 30k for $600. The shifter lcoation is different so i had to cut a whole in the floor. As well as cutting the cupholder off the seat. I hopefully will finish it this sunday.

The ford 8.8 is done ready for install. Painted, new e brakes, new pads, cut rotors and painted calipers wit POR15 kit

I didn't have the $3000 it would of taken to get me a tko or t56

The SDS is controller by a Map sensor and you can choose when the SDS helps fuel. On mine i have the SDS at 105kpa+ so when i am WOT its fuels just for boost. You can have it set for vacuum/boost not throttle loads. You can still build boost at part throttle. Long story short...anything i'm in boost the SDS are on regardless of rpm.
