Full fuel screw about 2 1/2 turns in, it's bottomed out, never found that runaway point.
Pulled the throttle linkage off, ground off the tab for more travel, swapped the linkage and spring location, but reinstalled at the stock index so I could use the idle screw.
Smoke screw almost bottomed out
HX35 with 12cm wastegated housing
Mandrel bent 3" DP goes to 4" at the bottom of DP, into stacks we pieced together with stuff we had in the shop. 5" miters
Pulled the VB and kinda went nuts on it. Started with a Trans Go kit, and, well, its a lot more fun now then with just the trans go kit. 5.5 turns on the Pressure Regulator. It shifts just a tad late, but it SHIFTS! I'll do some fine tuning when it starts acting up and I tear it down.
2001 D70 out back
2007.5 wheels (what a PITA that was!)

Up and coming -
POD's
Fuel Pin (we are actually negotiating with M&H on stocking and selling their pins)
Maybe a slight timing bump
Studs
FASS
Build the transmission whenever it decides it wants me to, and at that point I will be experimenting with converting the 518 into a lock up unit!


Thanks for the props!

Very nice, I like the stacks. You just can't beat the looks of a 1st gen.

I really like that bed, and would also like to find some of those seats you have there too!
Nice truck.
