Hi Guys posting this for my Bro that don't have a computer but he wanted me to ask you all-He has a 96dodge 12 valve 5speed and is looking to do some truck pulling he is looking for some mods like what is the best and most resonable injectors? timing? What fuel plate? Govenor or how to get rid of it? air intake? Valve springs? and what ever else he can do to get the most out of his 12 valve. We don't know to much about the truck I know you guys can help. Thanks

 

I would buy and install gauges, pyro, boost and fuel pressure or a second boost gauge to use as a drive pressure gauge.Then i would get a more free flowing ehxaust and intake.Then a double disc clutch with a upgraded main shaft.Then pull your fuel plate or if you prefer grind your fuel plate and adjust your afc. Then i would get a 4gsk and 60 pound valve springs.Then i would get some bigger sticks like 435's or bigger and a upgraded turbo, i would stick with big single so you don't have to pull in a different class.Twins are nice but they involve some knowledge when tuning them in. I would also install some head studs and bumb up your timing, keep it under 16.5 degrees on a stock head gasket and bolts.

 

I think you nailed it

I would also look at the KDP

 

OK guys thanks for the help, I am a rookie here so I have some questions, Are the 435 sticks Injectors? and the 4 gsk it that a govenor spring kit?? And I was wondering what the KPD is. Sorry for the stupid questions. Do they allow any kind of traction devices in the stock pulling class? If so what do you guys recommend? Thanks For all the help guys

 

hes got a dana 80 rear which is pretty stout but it wouldnt be a bad idea to install some traction bars as for injectors stay away from marine injectors spend the extra money and get some good ones like 5x.013 or 8x.009

the kdp is a pin that locates the timing case onto the block it is right over the cam gear and likes to fall out im doing a rebuild right now because of that little bastard get it tabbed the you can get the job done in an afternoon with simple tools

 

i would do the kpd first then the mods Stack boy said

 

How do you do the kdp any illustrations on here??? Thanks for all the help guys, Still learning alot on these 12valvers.

 

If you use the search function you can find hours of reading on everything from what tire pressure people run to full blown motors.

 

build your self some bump stops, traction bars, and drive shaft loops. there not that hard to make and if something in the driveline lets loose you will be thankful you did. What class are you planning on running? 2.6?

 

My Bro wants to run Stock class, He needs to get some rules for the class he is interested in. Do you think the 12 valve will Keep up to the chevys and Fords with these mod? Thanks for all the help.
