    NEW PROJECT - 08 LMM 2wd

    :thumb: I've got a customer that brought me a similar project. Much older LB7 but short bed 2wd. Damn that little truck is fun! Wish you had it ready in time for world finals:D

    Cheater slick air pressure?

    Thanks guys. I didn't have any idea where to start. Guess I'll try something like 24 in the front & 18 in the rear. Not much weight in the back anyway.

    Cheater slick air pressure?

    Just got my 30x14 M&H cheater slicks in. Mounting on pro comp 16x10 wheels. Gonna run all 4 so what kind of tire pressure is ideal? Truck weighs about 6500 lbs plus me.

    Converter lock up WITHOUT a lock up box

    There's only three NEW tables with this update but there's a dozen or more tables that control TCC lock. After you disable the TCC slip inhibited lock you still have to correctly tune it to lock when desired. Just like all tuning it usually takes a few attempts to get the controller to do what...

    Converter lock up WITHOUT a lock up box

    Mine works just like Mike says. I went racing last weekend & made several 12.3 runs & never touched the lock up box. I've tuned other 5 speed & 6 speed tcm's with the same results. I'm loving it! One less thing to worry about at the line. The tune totally takes care of the converter lock. I ran...

    Quest for 11s stock motor

    Man I wish they would have let us make one more pass after we did the 12.50 class in Albuquerque. That was your tow tune at a mile high without very good track prep. Amarillo should grant you your 11. I'll probably be in the lane next to you in kill mode. Your little truck is taking this like a...

    Converter lock up WITHOUT a lock up box

    D5073 & D5074 allow you to set the converter to unlock based on throttle position. Setting them at 100% disables that feature since you can never exceed 100%. D5075 is the same thing for 4 low. Since the stock tune never locks in 4 low that being at 0% keeps it unlocked at all times. Somebody...

    II Silver Bullet or S400

    ^^This plus you have so much room to grow. An S468 is small enough for stock fuel but once you build the motor you can really push it. Especially if you go a little looser on the exhaust side. 87mm on the rear is awesome with spray.

    II Silver Bullet or S400

    That would be a quick little S400. What I don't like about the little T3 is how it sucks at high rpm. I'm trying to keep my rods inside the block & shifting at 3200 with over 600 hp isn't how that works. The S400 pushes hard all way through the rpm range. I love em:D

    II Silver Bullet or S400

    Trust me man you don't want the ii silver bullet. I ran it for 8 months & absolutely hated it. This is just my opinion. When I went to a 472 I gained a full second at the track with my 60 overs. We did a straight out of the box Borg Warner S468/83 .90 on an LBZ & that thing rocks! Spools as...

    Converter lock up WITHOUT a lock up box

    I've got mine locking hard enough to break the tires loose in 2nd. I adjusted the ramp on rate & disabled the inhibited lock completely. Just maxing out the slip rpm made it act stupid. Disable b5233 & make sure all your other tables agree. Your lock & unlock speeds have to agree. One table...

    New fuel only best for The Dumpster

    Nice! The super diesel class won't be the same if you retire the dumpster.

    Highest Dmax hp?

    A lot of his runs are fuel only;)

    Highest Dmax hp?

    Yeah Buck's truck is pretty rockin! Those guys have spent just as much time finding new ways to utilize the power at the track as they have making it in the first place.

    How far are your torsion bar bolts backed out?

    I've got my torsion bolts out & I've cut my bump stops so it has some travel. With the Rancho 9000s it rides surprisingly well. The rear is on bags so that's fully adjustable.

    Highest Dmax hp?

    Hey you derailed the derail.... back to talk of $hit shtick, a good buddy of mine waited for a long time to have his tranny built by the master. That truck is at our shop now ready for a Gmax with all the goodies. Glad he didn't send him a down payment.
