Just a guess:D 2,000* on a lb7 is freakin smokin!!! Only 2 things cause that much heat!

We can turn it into a who's closest game, and the winner get's a virgin sheep and a jar of creamy peanut butter:baby:

LB7Diesel you are exactly coreect that is about where my tune is but I cant really hold 18,000, morelike 15,000.


Sweetdiesel: I mentioned that I was doing main and head studs. I also mentioned a Socal Keyed Pulling Camshaft.

I did decrease it quite a bit and gained some pressure back. The air dog also helped a little.

I guess towards the end of the year I was seeing about 17,500

HAHA I always wanted a sheep, and peter pan is my peanut butter of choice:rofl:

You def need to lower PW in increments of 100 till you see your rail holding atleast 19-20K+ through a run then you can fine tune it. I'd ramp your timing curve up to atleast 30*+ also. You need to do something with that tune or your going to need more than just upgraded parts.;)

I think right now its a 28*

I plan on heading to Kennedys shop and making a few passes on his dyno and having him help me with the fine tuning. Hes not to far away from me.
