Looking in to getting a 12 valve
 
Hey guys I've got a 2001 24 valve and I'm thinking about getting a 3500 94-98 12 valve. What can I do to these motors for good reliable pulling power ? My 2001 has about 350 hp and 850 tq. Can I even get close to this ??

You can get these 12v to 350hp for almost half the price as you can to the 24v!But before you do any performance tranny first(TC and VB at the least) then upgrade the performance!But i think you can get like 120 FREE hp from the injection pumps!These trucks are a very reliable work horse:tu:
To make it a pulling truck,4in or 5in exhaust,air filter,and turn the pump up a lil,and GAUGES!!
I guess it mostly depends on how much your hauling or a smart hauler etc.:c:
Im getting my truck on a dyno and getting her a dyno tune when i get my 40 horse injectors next week!Hoping im close to 300hp or a lil over,but i've only dumped $1,200 in my truck and i haul a 15k 5th wheel up some massive hills with safe egts and crusie up them about 35-40!So i will let you know what my numbers come out to!

That sounds awesome. Can 6 Spd bolt on to them ?

Yes you can bolt a NV5600 behind her. Use the NV5600 engine adapter,flywheel/clutch, starter and starter spacer.

Dont get carried away with mods unless you have head studs ... adding fuel,boost,timing all make more cylinder pressure and you will likley lift the head and it will leak under the Thermostat housing ....

I bumped my timing and pulled fuel plate and spun star wheel and all that .... got into a race .... now have a leakey HG for my prize ... :argh:

Now i have the studs just need a new head and gasket set ... then i can procede with the bombing .. LOL ... oops :tu:
