thats pretty hot runnin that size turbo but wat pump mods dv's and fuel plate where u runnin? wat size exhaust? i have a 5 inch turbo back exhaust still a 3 inch flange but open exhaust gonna run a 0 plate all afc mods are already done and im gonna advance my timing after injectors and dv's and soon soon soon im gonna invest in a ht3b to run under my hx35 so that should help quite a bit with heat. on the clutch side of things i know people say there junk but im not gonna do any tractor pulls or hot rod the truck so i was thinkin the 550 hp clutch full ceramic. another thing bud my truck was auto its 5 speed now super jumpy and rough through 1-3 rd gear i cant make it smooth at all. and when i pull a trailer it jumps really bad sometimes i have to stop and do it again it jumps so bad. i was lookin around i think i have a broke throttle spring ssomebody said that ,makes my throttle super jumpy and hard to drive while haulin or shiftin through small gears. u know anything bout that
But the HT3B with the hx35 is a good compound setup. We have a couple guys in our local forum running those compounds and they are putting down mid 600s on the dyno and are pretty much smoke free

you can pull your old head bolts out and go down to copper state or a good local hardware store and match them up, idk if home depot or lowes would have them, there are 3 different size bolts that hold your head down, there are also a few different washers you have to use to work with the valve covers and i had to grind some of the webbing out of the tops of my covers to work with the allen bolts
