  1. doesnt this kind of defeat the purpose ? Just thinking out loud here... it uses the stock rotor .. I thought this was more of the problem than the calipers ? for instance baer sells the +1 kit that uses stock calipers with a bigger rotor. I know you will gain stopping power with this upgrade but just a thought? obviously anything other than completely stock is an upgrade on our trucks.
  2. no effin around with your projects haha. looks good !
  3. Wondering if anyone has a single LS "409" taylor wire blue I could buy. I have a set but one of the ends pulled out on the spark plug side. Dont want to buy a full set if I dont need to . Thanks
  4. double post MODS Please delete thanks
  5. Not sure if thats to me or bigtoyz.. But I already have a turbo kit ready to go minus wrapping pipes, hoses for return line, and tapping the pan. Thanks for the heads up though
  6. Yeah planning on wrapping the pipes .. Not driven in winter anymore. Sounds like you're building yourself a beast
  7. Nice thats exactly what I needed to hear. Breaking all 4 loose! What psi was that? I have a 2800 multi PI converter myself and FLT 6 so hopefully good for a bit there.
  8. wow ok good to know I didnt realize it would drop that much. Yeah I am now thinking put the head back. I was looking into all the parts I would need and I am staring at a 2k bill. Thats everything of course heads cam lifters pushrods springs chain oil pump and gaskets not to mention xlink and tb. Oh and thats stock L92's ha . I think I am going to pull the reins back a bit. Can I change valve seals with the heads on the truck? compressed air through the spark plug holes?
  9. still no response from racetronix what bad customer service...
  10. I understand what youre saying. So if I run the same psi with larger intake cfm heads then I should make more or worst case the same power.But not necessarly on N/A because you need a larger bore to more or less help suck in the air. thats where the cam/stall comes in for N/A .what was your best on a stock 6.0 and what psi? Thanks
  11. goals are low 12's for sure but the truck will rarely see if ever see the track.(havent been there yet). as far as cam I was looking at tick's stage 1 or 2 turbo cam. Starting off at 7 psi and maybe down the road bump to 10 or so. Nothing too crazy. but yeah I agree it adds up fast. Question- will I be able to run the same or lower boost and achieve the same/more power if the heads flow better?
  12. nice intro.. and good choice on a guzzler haha
  13. ha ha a good but expensive motto. lol
  14. Alright guys/ gals Ill let you know you all are going to have another turbo in the mix... Anyway I have a broken bolt in my head. Drivers rear of course. Have tried to weld it several times but cant get it to stick . The bolt is recessed in about a 1/16th. I am going to pull the head. Truck has almost 100k My questions to you all - 1) Pull the head remove broken bolt and put back the head ? 1) pull both heads and get some 823's(have an intake already) Now.. initially I was just going to pull and put it back, but then I thought if I go thru all that work to pull one why not pull both and upgrade? It will be more expensive up front, but was planning on changing heads down the road, so I thought why do it twice and twice the gaskets and what not. My problem is I didnt really plan for spending this much right away. To do the 823's I will need offset rockers gaskets pushrods lifters( the reason I say that is because it doesnt make sense to put stock 100k mi stuff back in. ) then I might as well do a cam while I have it all apart? Oh man.. thats why I am asking for some opinions... Thanks
  15. Welcome! good to see some more mid westerners here esp the MN / WI guys!
  16. Ready to go ? All I would need is intake and offset rockers? (Xlink and 90) of course.. what's the advantage of the ss valves? Thanks
  17. Got 8+ inches of snow overnight last night :( bummed...

  18. Anyone know what wiring kit I need for my 05 ss? there is about 4 to look at.. Thanks Also where are you guys finding the best price on fuel line/fittings?
  19. Whats up nick? Trans is working great! put away for winter though. Just curious if you have the pillar gauge pod from your truck still ? I am looking for one Thanks hope all is well.
  20. Welcome! Minnesota myself... Blaine area. And yes we are having very dangerous wind chills here currently.
