Fuel Box - suggestions
#22
even though one person had luck with a setting for fuel economy doesnt mean your truck will perform the same way, it may work but fool around with it for a while...
my brothers 02 smoked a little bit when he put his edge juice on it...i figured it would smoke more too...once he got injectors is when it really starting rolling the coal and slipping the tranny which is gonna be take care of in the coming weeks with Goerend special

I got the steath cover from a member of TDR long time ago so not sure what it costs from bluechip but it works good. I been tapped since 06 and never gave any trouble yet. Be sure to get a tamper proof torx 15 I believe. Fishing guide can back me up or correct me. on is it, 01 or newer VPs the older ones use the regular torx found in any toolset.
seems like BD offers a stealth cover as well...

In the shop we now solder all the pump wires. It eliminates the possibility of cracking a board or losing a connection, ect.
But it is still an effective attachment if you keep an eye on it!

An adrenaline will be next w pulse but might try some diffrent sticks I hear the FBs are cheap, tell me about them Dave im all ears.
Where do you ground the fuel boxes? I am just using a fuel filter bracket bolt going into the head I scuffed the threads good and the bolthead as well as the connector eye I wonder if this may be a problem.

I grounded mine on the ground strap on the grid heater.
I think I may have to solder my wire, with my set-up for some reason I smoke thicker and more at 3x5 than 5x5 on my comp? Is that normal or do you think I have more boost at the higher numbers so its kinda killing the smoke?
I dont care about the smoke really, I just want everything to be normal and ok.

WOW you jumped the fence? I figured you were a die hard Don M man. I only made 432 on the rollers at smokem if ya got em in blowing rock,NC. It was my first time and I had just gotten my sticks back from don m. I sent them to be confirmed to be true 4s and to be cleaned/rematched and I have a few fuel leaks at the lines at WOT and it was 93 F or so and my pump is kinda worn. Lotsa grey smoke insteda black.

I have been running the FireBallPro stuff for some time. I have worked with the guy that makes them, so I have a good understanding of what goes into them.
Basically, they are EDMd close to the final hole size and then they get a very fine honing or micropolish just to be sure they are clean.
Been great for smoke and EGTs and the power is still there.
I am not knocking Don's stuff at all. He builds a great product, but for some reason I have fallen out of favor with him. I am guessing that has more to do with keeping his other dealers happy as he would not sell to me when I was with Diesel Distributors. Just the little politics of diesel performance. I'll bet Vulcan would like to carry his line, but that's not up to me. I was probably Don's biggest supporter and even recommended his product even when I could not get it. But now I have one that I feel is just as good. I have been very happy with these sticks.
I always ground fuel boxes directly at the battery. Using the engine can be hit an miss as you have aluminum, painted, or poorly grounded surfaces. Usually it works, sometimes you give up a good connection due to the above factors.
