This was testing the truetrac for the first time

This was rolling out of side street onto a 55mph highway, race tune, rolled the throttle to the floor for about 4-6 sec

With a mod list like that it should beat my 13.50's my GMC used to run :rofl::thumb:

Before the lift and tire I felt like it was a mid 12 truck fer sure, I'm not so sure now, but it still feels pretty fast:thumb:

I walked away from a NISMO 370z last night, 3 times, he was shocked and I'm sure a lil pissed too, had him solid to 115, he was several(3-4 car lengths) back the first two times, only about 1-2 the last run, then he dipped out

But those cars aren't incredibly fast

so how do you delete the whole fuel filter head i wanna do my lly

U need the fitting for the back of cp3. 1/2". U also need a rubber hose roughly 18-20in long. Also 1/2. Ppe also makes this if u dont wanna make your own. They call it cp3 highflow feed line. 50-55 if i remember. Take the fuel filter housing off, theres 2 rubber hoses to it, u bypass the test port line to cp3. Literally put fittin in cp3, install your new hose to fitting and connect it to the hose that doesn't go to test port, and where the hose from the filter head, and new hose from cp3 splice together, i bought a fuel T from xdp with a 1/8 ntp for fuel gauge hook up.
thats pretty much it to delete the filter head. Super simple. Least was on my lbz

i jsut put a new 1/2" hose on mine that loops from the incoming hard line to the FICM.

Yes sir. Basically i wrote a novel and wasnt needed. Lol 1/2 line and new fitting, and i bought the T so i had a place for my fuel pressure gauge.

How's the new project coming along?

so how do you delete the whole fuel filter head i wanna do my lly

I used the left over fuel line from the lift pump install, and some 3/8 line for the return line and a brass fitting for the return, already had the 1/2" coupler from the ppe hi flow cp3 kit, then to remove the filter head all you need to do is unbolt the (2) 10 or 12mm bolts that hold the whole thing onto the side of the block and unplug the WIF sensor, done

Thank you

Anyone who has a wife as understanding as ours, who lets us do this stuff is a pretty lucky guy....I'd sell a testie before I'd sell this truck, but the truck would probably have more interest :spit:

You've come a long way since the days of Caspmax:roflmao: Looking good man!

That ain't no joke thanks

Nice looking setup. Where do you live? Looks nice there.

I live in north western Washington, and it is pretty nice here, for about 3-4 months a year, the rest of the time it rains and you wonder why you stay







Thanks everyone for the kind words:hug:

And thanks for all the advise, help, encouragement, ....sarcasm and otherwise, my rig wouldn't be what it is today without all the input from the members here:thumb:


THANKS DURAMAXDIESELS!!! For providing the setting for the best source of knowledge available for diesel performance enthusiasts like myself, and all the guys and gals here that paved the way (that are way smarter than me....:baby: )
