Suncoast trans is a great choice, and you can't go wrong with Mpi twins. Twins will be easiest on the stock bottom end.

 

Advise him to do his transmission first. Once he starts going over 100rwhp the tranny
Will slowly but surely start to wear down. Like mentioned above try and get a tune from
IdahoRob.

 

along with the tranny build, get a good torque converter. 500hp is not that expensive to produce but it cost a good bit to make it last a long time with more hp

 

its amazing what these tunes do to these trucks

 

So we added more parts last night in my garage. We put up an airdog 2 last night. wow was that easy, nothin like the airdog 1. We added a bigger fitting. (cant think what its called) but it goes behind the cp3 into the rail. found out you can just drill the damn thing out instead of buying a bigger fitting. put on a new downpipe, also new tie rod sleeves. anyways also shimmed the fuel pressure relief valve. ended up losing the damn washer for the needle inside so i mocked up a perfect circle out of metal and blocked the relief valve.
after everything was done, it made the truck slower, im guessing the relief valve isnt working all that well. so we overnighted new parts to get the correct cap for the valve. he's going to do a couple test runs with efi live so we can see the log.
damn is efi awesome.

 

yeah the 40 dollar ported fuel rail fitting, a you need is a drill bit to make yourselff one for free, and most of the time u dont need it cause u can see if the truck can hold the rail pressure with the efi live.

they give you three washers, you only need two if you actually need them again you can use efi live to check and see if you need the shims or do a bottle test, its more of a mod for lly's since they dont like anything over 23kpsi at all.

yeah the AD2 is so damn easy to install
