Jeff. . once your clutch starts to slipp. . it is all over. It is time to change it. Yes you can limp along for a while, but it will only get worse. No matter how much power you take out.
I just put the 370's in my truck. . It ran good before, but now Holly SMOKE! I took it up to my friend at cummins to have him tune it in better. It was smoking way to much for my liking, but the power was way cool. He blocked off the waste gate, bumped up the time to 15 something I think. Then messed with the star wheel and some springs. Right now when you first get on it, it does not smoke hardly at all. Backing the star wheel way off took a lot of the low end out and smoke out.
My only complaint right now is at idle it is smoking. It did not do that before the injectors. He said I would probably have to have the pump circuit re adjusted for the injectors. Its getting a little too much fuel at idle. For this winter driving I have the star backed way off!
