thank you sir. Yeah, I love the 450, 400hp, 800 lb ft of torque, 4.30 Limited slip, bone stock. 16mpg out of a 65 gal aftermarket tank. You can go a loooooong way on a fill up
2 new developments. The first: The second: Haven't installed the kit yet, probably wont for a couple months, but I now have a complete wastegated banks turbo setup.
yeah bought me a parts truck that that came with. Used to be an ambulance. It has a 40ish gallon rear tank that is eventually going in my truck too. This is from the banks website: Sidewinder® Turbo System F-250, F-350 & F-450 PICKUP: The ultimate upgrade for classic diesels is a Sidewinder turbocharging system. Banks wastegated Sidewinder turbo unleashes gains up to +82 hp and +143 lb-ft torque. You'll hardly recognize Ol' Betsy; With Banks' turbocharging technology onboard, she'll tow up the grade 53% quicker, and provide up to a phenomenal 29% fuel economy improvement at that. No smoke! If I'm averaging around 20mpg highway (I've seen as high as 22), if get close to the full 29% fuel economy, I should be pulling 25ish mpg on the highway and 21-22 city, with a 3/4 ton 4x4 truck with 33's and 4.10s. Should be epic. Also, if I get the full power gains claimed, it'll put me around 245hp and 480 ft/lbs of torque. Should be able to move pretty much anything.
picked up some new shoes yesterday. 33x12.5x16.5 BFG AT TA/KO, three like new mounted and balanced, with the 4th rim. Did some tradin for them, by the time I buy the fourth tire I'll be in a complete set of BFG's and alloy rims for about 325.
