Got the injectors in. #6 is just fun... I think I should have went bigger. With the cam I am running it just ate the extra fuel like it was nothing. Boost was 41 psi (wastegate is set to 41) with no pressure added and EGT's stayed in check at 1200 deg.

Thanks for the update Spooler! Glad to hear you got the injectors back in alright, even with having to deal with that pesky #6!

Drove it today in the heat and if I get on it too much I will leave a smoke trail. I just have to be easy on the throttle. If it get's on my nerves I will just go to a stocker/S475 MPI setup.

Thanks John and Blake, I think you guys do a great job here, and I don't know if I would consider no_6 a friend, but he did help me out. Other than that I read a lot of his posts and I thought he was really helpful.
I agree there is no room for berating someone. Mean names, profanity, belittling.... If that's what he did I am sorry he resorted to that. It's just too bad.
I haven't driven my truck for ten days! I went on vacay with the fam and dropped the truck off in the shop to have some paint chips touched up on the nose and it's still in there..... After driving a minivan for 8 days I gotta get my testosterone level back up....
Speaking of which--------- I had a delivery truck get buried in my yard. I was getting a load of roof shingles and the driver didn't want to go down through some low land to get to my addition because it had rained and the area was soft. I told him I'd take care of any towing that needed to be done if it came to that.
When he drove in I could see he had no clue about driving on soft soil and he didn't know the first thing about momentum. Long story short he got stuck and I hooked up with a 50' long 4" wide strap which put me on my gravel driveway. He started rolling and instead of going a little quicker he just kept his big boom truck in granny low and crawled. Meanwhile I was in low 4 lock and just spinning the tires enough to dig 4" into the hard pack gravel drive and slowly pull that big truck off my land.
I had a couple of my guys watching and they swear both front tires were digging which I don't believe, but for sure both rears were pulling strong.
One of my younger guys said he can't believe that my truck pulled that big boom truck out and he had a new appreciation for my truck.
Made my day!!
