valve cover gaskets are new, under valve cover gasket harness tested out ok on an ohm meter. skip is still there..... it clears out and runs great at anything over 2500......

i have a friend that eats sleeps and breathes 7.3's so i might take it to him next week. he has a perty high HP 7.3 that is sitting on like 40's or something like that..... he's suspose to be puttin it on some 52' or some crazyness like that and still drive it on the street.......

oh ya and blowing an intercooler boot off almost makes my wife crap herself.... -

cool cause i looked in the fuse box and the numbers stop at 37 under the hood and the 4x4 relay is number 41 i think...

hopefully i'll get back in town with enough time to put it on a MODIS and buzz test each injector and see if i can find a bad one..... -

Welcome to the PSD family Ben!!! Sorry I haven't been around much, been busy as hell!

I'd give Tony a call for nearly anything you need! Also, see if he can get you some Swamps injectors.. a buddy of mine has them and loves them -- they are 170/(can't remember - 30 or 40 I think) single shots.. your stock injectors are split shots and put more of a load on the stock hpop.

if you get injectors that are too large, the hpop will not be able to keep up no matter what shot your injectors are...

hope this little bit of info helps!

and if you have any ?'s about the Swamps injectors, PM White Buffalo (Rich) on the heartland, he can fill you in... I'll be seeing him this comming weekend (Nov 1st) @ Thunder Valley Raceway in Noble, Oklahoma. -

Intake and Exhaust and Guages - then Chip...

after that you'll likely need a transmission... , or to at least upgrade the existing one

then i'd spring for some injectors and a small turbo upgrade.. (if you have forged rods, then you can go farther, if not, you are pretty limited with PMR rods to 400 HP or less) -
