Engine/Transmission (1994 - 1998) High Altitude Performance;370's, 300's, DDIII's, DDII's or ???

[lpearson]

Ok, I've got 370's sitting in the garage, but I'm having second thoughts if they are the right injectors for where I live. I'll be driving between 6000 feet and 8500 feet with my truck.



My question is am I making a mistake with the 370's? Will I just be blowing smoke and have high EGT's?



I know of another diesel (f**d) that had a flip chip put in it with "tow and Exteme" settings; at this elevation the tow ran much better than the extreme which just overfueled and blew huge clouds of Black smoke. Maybe at a lower elevation this would produce higher torque and horsepower, but it sure didn't here.



Does anyone out there in the TDR Brotherhood have some sound advise for me?



RAMifications,

Lowell

I have had 370s in mine for almost 60K now. I live at 6200 feet. They smoke alittle more and make more EGTs at High altitude. They make alot more power. When I installed mine with a 16 CM2 housing on the stock turbo they slipped the Luk Pro Gold clutch I had in at the time. You'll probibly be looking for some more air (turbo housing or HX-40) Soon
