bigbl62 Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 Went to PA today to meet Bryan from PCM4LESS, we got the whole hp,and torque problem figured out. I was making only 314 hp and 420 torque. Found out that the belt was slipping, and had to add some timing. Got the truck up to 407hp and 458 ft torque. Much better now, I was ready to give the Radix away if I couldn't make more then 314hp. Bryan was a great guy, would do buisness with him anytime. PCMFORLESS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!

BenKey Posted February 2, 2005 Report Share Posted February 2, 2005 I originally guessed 405hp Much better. Now get some headers on that thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krambo Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Nice numbers! Feel better now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbl62 Posted February 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 I was told that the rear tires will only lock up on a dyno or when there is no strain on it. When we back the truck of the dyno machine I heard the whine you are refering too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTex Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 OK, belt slip. What was the fix? New smaller belt? I think I ended up with a 110.5" with my radix and 3" pulley. Have you checked the mounting bolts for the manifold? A guy on the ls1tech site said his weren't tight and he was losing boost. 407 is so much better than the old 314. Glad that its all working out for you. If you have a hard dopy of the sheet, fax it to me like you did the last one. I'll post the picture up in this thread if you want.

bigbl62 Posted February 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 (edited) Do you think I should have more power? I will check the bolts. Edited February 3, 2005 by bigbl62 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTex Posted February 3, 2005 Report Share Posted February 3, 2005 Not saying that at all. Just throwing out something else you might check, just to be on the safe side. How many dyno pulls did you make until you got that number? What did you do to resolve the belt slip issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
