First off I would like to thank lloyd for letting me use his dyno for some dv testing this weekend. I made a total of 5 pulls 2 with the industrial dv's and 3 with a set of full cuts.

On my last dyno in july I made 570 rwhp and 1077 ft/lbs of torque, since that last run I dual feed my 175 pump and changed to a 33x12.5x16.5 tire.

the first run the afc was full back and the 2nd run and 3rd was slid full forward. The 33inch tires ended up costing 19hp

1st run 548 hp and 1001 ft/lbs
2nd run 551 hp and 1022 ft/lbs
3rd run 550 hp and 1028 ft/lbs


the 4th run the afc was full forward with the full cuts added and the 5th was full back with the full cuts


4th run 556 hp and 1039 ft/lbs
5th run 555 hp and 1024 ft/lbs

the full cuts added way more fuel and actually spooled my s465 faster than the industrial dv's did. After talking to lloyd and looking at the dyno sheets we think the 4k I have are cutting the fuel to soon on the top end and I should try a few extra clicks. I didn't get the results I wanted with the full cuts but now I have somewhere else to look.

again I would like to thank lloyd for taking time out of his weekend to help me with my goals ... and I think we both learned a lesson on why you don't wanna stick towels down a stack I will catch fire

Truck looks good man

you could always go 2 clicks and back your idle down.

thank you ... today I went 2 more clicks and did have to back the idle. next dyno should be sometime in oct so we shall see

what happens if 2 clicks more is 2 much? and how would u no?

the truck would be very touchy to drive... if the springs are to tight the truck will jerk upder light throttle

well I tried more clicks on the gov springs and that did not help, I ended up just reseting them to what I had before. So I let it sit for a while trying to figure out what else it could be. drove it friday night for the first time in 3 weeks ... the truck ran beter than it ever has before, I found a good size hill and did a 4th gear pull resulting in me spinning my 33x12.5 bfg's at 50 mph. my max boost before friday night was 36 psi, I gained another 19 psi for a total of 55.

other than the outside temp was 15* cooler than the last time I drove it everything else was the same. I think my shut down was not pulling up all the way ( should have checked this a lot sooner).I think this was my problem all along, the shut down must have had a dead spot in it so when the rack tried to advance it could not.

could that dead spot be why mine seems to be hanging up? i have a mechanical shutoff now since i was having solenoid was giving me a fit.

Hate Them?...
Then remove them and go to a cable shutoff instead.I have seen many guys go to them because of the cost of the shutoff solenoids cost when they go bad....

They may be a pain but I don't hate them. I do plan on takeing it out and doing what hammer said.

cost me 6 bucks and a spring i found in my tool box

I did the same with mine - that solenoid really pissed me off..

are the industrial dvs good? ive been looking around and so far ive come to the concluision that .022's would be worth the money.

could you raise you fuel cut by tightening the springs without buying the 4k kit? i was just looking for a small gain such as 200rpm. just enough to get to the max without having to buy springs or valve springs?? by the way man the truck looks good 94

you would be better off just buying the springs, course thats totally up to you but with the springs its awesome!!! no more waiting to shift!

gov springs were the first thing i did, and im glad i did, do it right!!
