I wonder how hard it would be swap in a 2006-07 engine harness & ECM so you could run EFI Live...

Would the TIPM used in the newer trucks be a factor rather than the older Power mgmnt module used in the 2003-05 trucks?

The latest update for EFI Live for the 2003-05 trucks is this summer but expect it later..

More work then it is worth to gain the 6 months or so, before it is out for the SCI trucks.

On a side note I am in the process of signing a small sponsorship deal with nitrous express. It's not big, but everything helps!

What express stuff are you get?

With a 5500# truck, Kev I think you'll going to do better than you'll think. Most of the other trucks are heavy around 7000lbs, more power but...

Biggest issue will be is to keep everything reliable to outlast the other guy. My guess you should be solidly into the low 10's. Might even get a 9 with tweaking.

I think that the only thing that will keep me from consistantly being in the 9's will be suspension.

Well the head has been shipped off. I got some really good news today. F1 diesel has told me that they will do a 100% sponsorship on injectors, springs and cam! That is incredible of them! I will be very proud running the F1 diesel flag this year!

If I can hit the 9's I will be happy. Faster will just be a bonus

What's the plans to get it down to 5,500? That's really light...heck Aaron's short bed was 6k.
