    Fuel addative?

    Mr. Walker, i never expected a phone call from you, it is great to deal with professionals with superb customer service and people who stand behind their products. I have sent a sample back of my TDR formula to Amalgamated for testing and a call back from Mr. Walker told me that my left over...

    Fuel addative?

    RWalker, I ran amalgamated (the TDR formula) 4 times always on a full tank and after about 1/2 tank used i would always develop a rough idle upon start up in the mornings or after letting the truck sit for 5 hrs, i could clear it by gassing it or driving aggressively for a couple of miles but...

    Gear Vendor or not

    HCanales, On my 06' with the G-56 the GV took up 14" so my single drive shaft was shortened by that much + the slip yoke play to a total length, from center to center of U joints eyes, of 41 1/2". The drive shaft measurement, cutting & balancing is the most critical & important part of the...

    2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Larger Fuel Tanks

Several times i've filled up at different gas stations and pumped 67 gal into the tank. Once i decided to see how big the tank actually is and how much fuel was still in the tank before...

    Aftermarket fuel tank vs overhead

    When i installed my two piece 65 gal Aero tank the small 18 gal donut tank goes in the spare tire well and the spare tire sits on the tank and dropping 6" lower, now looking at it from the rear of the truck you can see part of the spare tire sort of like looking at a Chevy truck from behind.

    Aftermarket fuel tank vs overhead

    I checked with the dealer and with a tech for DC friend of mine and both said that the star scan does not go that deep into the programing so they could not do it.

    Gear Vendor's and Smarty Jr Stack = MPG!

    The Gear Vendors OD unit drops rpm by 22%, with your 4:10 gears it might be a good choice, the G56 coupled to 3:73 gears the rpms should be close to your 4:10 gears/rpm. I turn 2600 rpm OD off at 80 mph & 2000 rpm OD on. Very smooth engagement in & out of OD, unbelievably quiet in the cab at 80+...
