Ya i think it probably has a gsk in it becuase when I was driving it I took it up to 3k and she was still pulling strong. It also has stiffer valve springs in it so Im thinking 4k gsk.

try to get it up to 3500rpm if you can do that its got a 4k in it. im pretty sure a 3k limits you at 3200rpm

Ok ill try tommorow after I change the oil. I just got it today and its so awesome. Im going to pull the plate out the weekend and cut it for a 0, No matter what I did today I couldnt get egts past 800-850 so I think Ive got plenty of room for more fuel on top. Im still waiting to hear back on what kinda clutch it is though I dont want to burn it with to much power.

thats awesome that ur egt's aren't high, my dads truck with a 5spd. and 10 plate with a 3k will hit 1400 and 40psi on the stock turbo. i can't wait untill i can hit those numbers. have fun with that 0 plate and how does your truck smoke? can it roll coal if you do a 1st to 4th those are what a 5spd is all about.
