Gauges

I would start with the gauges next especially if you plan to go further. Lets see what all the experts say. Good luck. Dwayne( EGT, transmission temp, boost)

If you do a search you'll find a post from Ted Jennetty that's a full layout of steps. Very solid post.

One word for you..... GAUGES.





With out a doubt these are the first thing you should do to your truck.

As for the second thing, I am with the other people, add a DTT valve body and TC, you will not be dissapointed.



I like the SPA gauges, you can see one in the link in my signature.

ICE bomb = In Car Entertainment, IOW, factory Infinity system removed, Replacement High-end Alpine multimedia system installed. This is the wrong forum to elaborate here though..... should really be in P&A



... hey, good looking 2001. 5 3500 Iceman - I can recommend changing the HY35 turbo to an HX unit/12cms unit with the DD2 injectors - it would sure give your snowplow an "edge" hence the question perhaps?

Since you have an AT, I would reccommend a transmission temp. gauge as well as a fuel pressure gauge. Might as well start thinking of mod. banjo bolts while your at it. And then you might want... ... ... The list is endless. It never stops.
