I am not debating what you saw. I gave my opinion. I do not know your truck or how you performed this diagnostic and all of this is off topic. My point is such things could be tested on the dyno and that is the hole point of what I am trying to do.
Reverend Mike I agree with you about the part throttle issue. However there is no way, as of yet, to test part throttle gains in a "scientific way", and I use that term loosely. A dyno is all we have to work with and by looking at the torque curve you can get an idea of how it will perform under...
So on a thread I recently posted, a conversation started that boiled down to this.
Person 1: This modification works grate.
Person 2: I don't think it dose.
Person 1: Here is a book theory as to why it works.
Person 2: I won't believe it till I see a Dyno sheet to prove it.
Person 1: Her is a...
So clearly we have gone way off on a tangent now. And the discussions beginning to be less than civil. So why don't we stop this conversation here and if you guys want to continue it I would suggest you start a new thread somewhere else.
I will however say one more thing on the subject before...
df2x4 I don't mined talking about this at all (as long as it stays civil). While it may not be directly on topic it is directly related. Now I am going to preface what I am about to say with I am NOT an expert. However I am very well read on this particular topic. I fined it very fascinating...
Thanks. I was planning to do most of that any way. I have done the Ultimate TBI mods and took the heat riser flapper out already. I am going to be changing over to an electric fan and doing some exhaust very shortly. I was thinking about the Edelbrock intake. how much of a differences did you...
I appropriate the info but it said it is for a Vortec engine which I do not have.
Well K&N specialize in "free flowing" intakes not "cold air" so higher temp is not uncommon with them but over all performance usually goes up. In any case I will be doing a custom active hood scoop this summer.
If I could get 25 mpg I would stick to the TBI. That is more then I am looking to get out of it. What is EBL and what other mods do you have done to get that kind of mileage?
