    Smarty tunes

    Would like to try something new. The box was replaced by Mads last summer due to a failing screen, so not too sure what tune is on there. What would you guys suggest as a good one to try. I was running an older version of TNT and that seemed to work pretty well. Looking for quick spool up with...

    sw 0

    I have a 600 mile freeway trip coming up that will be empty unloaded and loaded returning. Thinking about running down on sw 0. I have only driven the truck once in sw 0 and it was pretty slow. But since this will be a freeway drive wondering if it will get significantly better mpg? What do you...

Dropped the truck and trailer off on monday morning and picked them both up wenseday morning for a tow down to Long Beach. First thing I noticed was how quite the truck was...

    Towloc Vs OD Lockout 05'

    Spent some time researching the various BD transmission controllers last night. Having the 05 with out the OD lock out makes towing frustrating. The truck will physically pull many grades but gets really hot and I need to force the downshift while in T/H. I do not have an exhaust brake and most...

    exhaust manifold choices??

    I'm planning on getting the Glacier "Air Boss" intake manifold plate. I'd also like to upgrade the exhaust side of things as well. Seems like the ATS is a popular choice. What is involved in using a center dump 2nd gen style? Is it worth it, or just stick with a 3rd gen unit. I'd like to cool...

    sharp "ping" during idle?

    I've just noticed a very sharp sounding ping while the truck sits idle. sounds fine normal for a minute or so then a sharp metallic "ping" rpm jump just a tiny bit then normal again for another minute or so. Is this the rail relief valve? I have never noticed this before.

    05 tow/haul reflash??

    Has any one had this done yet? I was going to get the BD over drive lock out. I just learned about this re flash. I think that it locks out OD while in tow/haul?

    EGT temp??

    I was researching "safe egt temp" last night. Just wanted to ask the question again. The 325 engine can run at 1450 for 30 minutes safely, in one post. I also read a post about a bombed 3rd gen that was running 1750 with no apparent problems. This seems hot but at what point do you need to...

    any cam replacement updates??

    I've been researching this for a while now and am curious if any one has any long term feedback. I am planning on keeping this truck for a long time. I would love to get quicker spool up and bit better mpg.

    Titanium Tubing????

    Any engineers out there have experience with Titanium tubing? I need a 10' foot long piece of tube that can take 12-15k lbs of compression. Stand the tube on vertical end with 15K lbs on the top and not buckle. That is what I need to do. Weight is an issue here so no steel. I have thought about...

    need some new tools

    I need a die grinder, 1/2" drill, sander/polisher, and a 90* drill, maybe an angle grinder. I'm looking at the newer Makita stuff. Cordless works better for me. Any body out there have any opionons. I am going to retire the ten year old DeWalt 14v 3/8 cordless to be the house hold drill. The...

    bio fuel lines??

    I am curious if the Air Dog supplied fuel line is bio fuel compatible? I want to pull the trigger on a system and eventually would like to be able to run some form of bio. I was not able too get a hold of pure flow before they closed. I'm on the west coat they are east coast.

    shells/campers?

    I'm looking for a new shell for the truck. I am thinking that I would like cargo doors as opposed to keeping the tail gate. Are there any composite shells that have cargo doors as an option. I've been looking at the "Tradesman" stuff. They are alloy but look nice. Any other ideas? I will be...

    Competition boosted launch?

    Maybe a dumb question but what is the proper technique for a controlled boosted launch? Hold the service brakes or just drop the thing in gear? This would be with an auto

    Revo vs. TNT?

    I've just picked up my new truck (in signature). Previous owner was running the TNT tune. I kept the smarty I was running on the old truck which has the Revo tune. Drove the truck home with TNT sw9. Very fast very smokey and very responsive. Based on reading various posts regarding less smoke, I...
