I've been pretty curious to see how a gtx4202R would do as a high pressure. That's what I currently have planned but haven't seen one used or talked to anyone that has used one as a high pressure. Im assuming it would be along the lines of using an S475.

whats wrong with your current rods...???


Honestly you have screw in injector cups correct? Save some money, Guy has a injector hold down stud kit, and billet hold downs dont really do much of anything, IMHO.


So I assume your not going to sell the truck?

Lol. With me? Im not getting paid for shit. George is getting paid for his transmission parts, Trent has already been paid for his triple kit...where am I making the money? For the build that I already did?

If you want my constructive criticism....ok...no need for billet main caps, half filled block, .040 over bore with big twins with your cam and heads, and no need for billet hold downs...just my .02 cents

Because you never take your truck to the track, no dyno sessions, just baddest built dmax around with no numbers to boot. :thumb:
