What to Do Next?
Hows it goin guys. I am just gettin used to my truck and doing a few odds and ends to increase performance.
I am wondering what is the NEXT upgrade i should do i was thinkin new turbo or DV's but not sure? truck is a 95' 4x4 auto 4.10s -BHAF -4in' straight -boost elbow -#100 fuel plate/slide -previous owner said trans was rebuilt approx 17,000 mile ago with new single disk heavy duty converter (didnt know what it was rated for) I think thats it as far as i can remember Im just looking for more power i did most of the easy stuff but i am not sure with direction to go next:humm: Please guide me in the right direction. Thanks, Dan Ohhh BTW im doing sending unit in the tank soon and was goin to take bed off any tips would be appreciated!:tu: |
if ur gonna go much further as far as boost,timing,or more fuel ... ur gonna wanna stud the head to keep the HG happy .... I blew mine and now im having to do new head and all ..... play it safe and buy some studs:tu:
|
so that should be the first thing that I should concern myself with? Im not very knowledgable with headstuds, any preferences of advice?
OTHER OPINIONS ARE WELCOME:tu: |
4k gov springs
|
yes i had them in mind
|
best bang for the buck hands down on an old 12 valve. you will be driving a different machine for $120

---AutoMerged DoublePost--- can i do 4k gsk and 60lb springs without studs??? |
I would not advise going 4K with out studs ..... not that studs guarantee anything .... but a much lower chance in blowing a HG with studs then with stock bolts ..... its up to u and what ur willing to risk ... as I said ... I wasn't informed the bolts could stretch enough to pop a HG ... but ... I have a leaker now as proof .........
also ... my truck has a 215 w887 pump .... so at full throttle is retards 4° of timing .... im currently at 15.5° and with that much boost ( I was really on it plate was mia) most likley I was past 40# s of boost .... so all in all its my own fault .... and the HG is stock too so ...... |
can i do head studs and 4k gsk without removing engine right?
|
ive installed numerous 4 k kits in truck with stock head bolts. i have had 0 comebacks due to HG issues. they are good insurance but in my personal experiences in the 400 and below hp score totally optional. and yes springs take about an hour and studs take about 3 but you have to get your pedestals machined to clear valve covers.
