  1. I am assuming that the TR55's would be gaped correctly? . . and if i were to change plugs and wires should i adjust the tune or will it not really make a differance? And thanks Bad aSS Silvy for that write up! as of now i plan on getting the same wires you run along with the TR55's . . . total damage is $130 is that a fair price?
  2. i have a 06 vmax 4x4 with intake, lt's, 3" exhaust into flowmaster 40's, 160 t/stat, efi live tune. i have used standard 5w 30 peisoil for the entire life of the truck (83,000). What do yall use what do yall think is best. i will be replacing plugs and wires and also wonder what is best (part numbers would be great) and are the flowmasters hurting me that bad. any other simple things that anyone would recommend would be greatly appreciated Thanks
  3. Thanks yall i was goin to take it back to hime to fix and i will ask him about all this . . . . . do yal think i should go with a different tuner? . . . . i have had your mail in tune Wheatly and it was good and drove perfect but i did notice more power with the custom EFI and would much rather have a custom tune if i were near you i would go to you . . . . is there any other good custom tuners somewhat near north florida? THanks yall
  4. i would also like to know what all you other guys are usin . . . . i am also in need of new brakes. . . .
  5. i wish i could post it up but i no way of doing that. i wanna say that he told told me he pulled some timing when he first trryed to fix it. i wanna say it has to be the tune and not the stall clutch cuz it started right after i got the tune. What are some things i should have him check . . . i do know that i was the first "VMAX" he had tuned . . . is there anything unique about my truck that he may not be figuring into the tune such as the 4l70e instead of the 60 or 65e? Thanks 4 yalls help!
  6. I got a custom tune a while back using efi live and soon noticed my engine was slightly revving up and down a few hundred rpm (200 or 300) at 40-45 mph under light throttle, like the truck wanted to go into over drive and be at the lowest rpm possible as it should but it kept floating back up. however when I put my foot down just a little bit to accelerate the rpms drop down and the torque converter locks up and the truck pulls nice for what little bit of gas I give it. Took it back to the tuner (who is Doc. At EFIALchemy very reputable around northeast Florida) he adjusted the timing a little which I thought fixed the problem but on my way home it was doing the same thing but now from 48-55 mph. is this a timing issue with the tune? Or is something else the cause? any opinions would be great cuz iam clueless THanks
  7. i thought the servos just helded the gear better which is why it reads 35% more holding pressure. i thought the shit kit was what gave you the hard shifts. if i am wrong what do they mean by holding pressure? and what does the actuator do?
  8. I have a 06 vmax with CAI, LT headers, and a custom EFI live. I increased the line pressure so would adding billet servos mess up my trans the same way adding a shift kit would without adjusting my tune? I was going to get the 1-2 2-3 Superior / Fairbanks servo with 35% more holding power and the 3-4 Superior / Fairbanks Maximum Overdrive Servo that has 50% more holding power. is this too much, would a vett servo be better or just as good? What exactly is the actuator and how would it help me? Thanks
  9. that is very cool . . . i would love to race in a setting like that . . .
  10. got a 8 point openin weekend . . . but nothin lately . . . goin to be takin this next week off so i can go and i dont plan on leavin till i get one
  11. ok thanks for all the info . . . one last question i dont really think a shift kit is something i could not handle myself, about what price is reasonable for the install on this . . . ballpark, just so i know if someone is screwin me
  12. these questions may seem dumb but when it comes to trans i know nothing, but what brand on the billet servos is best and i just looked on the transgo sit and could not find my trans . . . it is a 4L70e right? i see 60, 65, and 80 . . . thanks
  13. thanks . . . would billet servos be the same as vette servos
