Wanted to thank Mark for the great pricing and service in getting me some 75# injectors. I needed them for my new twin turbo car project, and he definitely took care of me. :thumbsup:

Putting my truck up for sale. 03 Lightning with 39K miles. Dante's Modular Performance built the engine. Crower billet rods, custom ceramic coated CP pistons, Stage II heads and Crower billet cams to Dante's specs, KB, JLP intake, too much to list. Made 621/708 on 20 psi of boost, can handle...
Here's a few pics of their new system. The prototype is done, here are the header, exhaust and intake tubing, and sheetmetal intake pics. My pipes and intake are done and are being coated at this time. No pics of the turbo but they use a T76 from Precision Turbo.

I had friend over this week to do some tuning on his HD truck. It has a fully built motor with ported heads/cams. He is using the Pro Racer tuning but hasn't received his datalogger yet, so he brought it up to my house to do some datalogging and tuning.
While tuning I noticed that the timing...
Plain and simple the best I've used. Bolts are hex instead of allen which some manufacturers use; the allens are virtually impossible to tighten on some of the bolts, not that the hex are a piece of cake anyways.
The gaskets up top are a steel layered set like the factory so they seal well...
Dynoed again this morning. My last numbers were 560 rwhp and 597 rwtq with a built motor, heads, cams, KB, and 19 psi of boost. I have had a full exhaust in the past before this engine and was not happy with the noise. But after seeing my dyno numbers and the fact that it felt down on torque, I...
There are a LOT of guys who feel that the current LT, 2-cats, and cat-back are just too loud for daily driving; I know I certainly do. I think there's a market for a quieter system that maybe has some extra bullet mufflers, baffles, something to quiet them down to a reasonable level in the cab...
Here's my stock block dyno with a KB @ 16psi, street tune and stock exhaust.
Here is the ported heads, Stage II cams, built motor at the same 16 psi street tune, same timing, and stock exhaust.
The first was on a Dynojet in third gear with converter locked. The second dyno was on...
My question is, is there anything in the TUNE that can cause a lean condition that actually pulsates in a rhythm at that load, becoming worse as the load increases? If you go into open loop it's gone. The trims are pulling fuel out so I know I'm too rich if anything but it still occurs. I've had...
I have the new built motor up and running good. Chased my tail for the last few weeks because SCT had given me the wrong engine displacement code in my base tune, which threw off all the load tables. Anyway, the truck should make 550 rwhp on the street tune, but I have not dynoed it yet. It...
Headers have been sold.
Bassani stainless mid-pipe with high-flow cats (2). Paid $520 from LFP with freight; will sell for $400 shipped. These are 4 days old. I also added an extra O2 bung for a wideband, comes with plug if you don't use it.
Cat-back has been sold.

I recently had thread(s) involving how much timing could you KB guys run on 100 octane and 20 psi. I was using the Torco unleaded race concentrate which in a mix of 2 cans per 20 gallons was supposed to get me to about 102 octane. But I was only able to run 14 degrees of timing before wot...
Just went out to check some maf transfer changes I made in my tune. A/F 11.6-11.7 through second gear. Hit third at wot and the engine died. No funny noises, no warning. Acted just like when I had a bad chip in the truck. I tried to re-start and it didn't. Tried again and floored it and it fired...
Just installed JLP's sheet metal intake on my built KB motor. Mods as follows:
New Ford crank with oiling mods
Billet Crower rods
CP custom pistons with ceramic barrier coating
Stage II cams by Crower to Dante's specs
Fully ported heads, titanium retainers, ported intake manifold
KB...
Here's a quote from Dustin on the availability:
"We have 50 inlet castings, 50 base plates made. We have set up the program to machine the inlet casting (have to be modified from current form). Laser cut pieces are made, etc. Were going to be gone all week at SEMA so we lose a week. Were...
I responded to a post by Dustin Whipple about their new blowers coming out on this and other boards. We e-mailed back and forth but basically he has a 2.3 and a 3.3 blower and is offering a rebate to KB owners who will pull off their KB and install one of his blowers. VERY confident that it will...
After pricing several vendors I've decided to send my truck down to San Diego to Dante to have a motor built. He uses the higher dollar billet rods, cranks, etc. which makes me feel better. He's also much closer to me if there was an issue.
Hoping for 560-570 rwhp on the street tune. Getting...
Wondering how deep into the 11's (or beyond) anyone has gone without using long tubes or removing the stock cats. Cat-back is fine. Also without nitrous.
I'm doing a new motor and just trying to see what e.t. is possible with the factory manifolds.

I dynoed my truck the other day with a friend who was dynoing his Camaro. He had a friend meet him to watch. Had a new SRT-10. He asked me if I wanted to drive it, so what the heck.
Overall, it was pretty much as I expected. Truck interior is very comfortable and overall it's a very nice...
I dynoed my truck today. Previous mods:
Apten blower
16 psi of boost
PSP tuned Predator (19 degrees of timing)
alcohol injection
CAI
Cat-back, stock exhaust
65 degrees it made 428 rwhp and 498 rwtq (I lost 30 ft lbs with the Apten)
Changes for today:
KB Blower
SCT Racer Pro...
I had the Swanson $300. open air filter setup with nice billet aluminum MAF adapter and anodized aluminum brackets and air diverter. Very nice quality. I always wondered about the IAT though. So I did some datalogging yesterday and since I thought I knew what was going to happen I had ordered an...
I have a full exhaust (LT's/cats, and Bassani cat-back) on my 03 L with a KB (16 psi), cai, and alcohol injection. I just added the exhaust and honestly cannot tell much of a "seat of the pants" difference at all. If it's gained 20 rwhp I'd be surprised.
My problem is the interior noise; I...
