Thread: Help, my 12 valve keeps getting faster....

Started 3 months, 2 weeks ago by Camp
Hmmm......#100 plate and a new turbo.....with exhaust brake.....soon to be installed. I'm thinking I need to find some different gears and a 6-speed instead of the 5 speed and 4.10's

You know the rule about bragging rights. Dyno sheets or it didn't happen.

It's not ready for the dyno and I don't see it making much hp even when the new set up is dialed in. I'd be shocked if it broke 300hp. It won't be anything next to my last truck but, I did only pay $1500 ...

I rode in John`s truck at Holland court Diesel, it is a 24valve with twins, and all kinds of stuff. It is his daily driver, and it is wicked fast, high 11`s in the quarter mile.

The transmission had to be pulled and rebuilt as all the syncro's were wasted. Since we had it out, we put a new flywheel with the bigger clutch and pressure plate in it along with the better mainshaft and 5th gear nut. I had to rebuild ...

What I have now should work good and I don't think I need to go for bigger injectors...

I could only get 33lbs before the valve adjustment but, last night it was having no issue blowing by 35lbs I'm confused....
