First off i'd like to say this is an outstanding w/s, very helpful!
On 8-10-06 I took delivery of my new to me 99 quad cab, 5spd, long box. My Son(15) and I flew to Dallas to pick it up, from there we drove to Prescott, Az to visit my Brother and then back home to Michigan. The truck ran flawlessly with the exception of the lift pump, which I replaced and relocated while in Prescott and without this w/s wouldn't have had a clue(had the parts in my tool box) about LP's. Thank You.
Running at 2,000 RPM and 60 MPH netted me between 23.3 and 24.2, hand calculated and speed GPS checked. A/C on W/cruise set. Running 60 mph for almost 2,100 miles was a drag though, wish it had 3:55's.
Thanks Again to all.
Dennis

Thanks, I appreciate that. I'm also happy to report it's a non 53 block.

Thanks for the welcome. It took a lot of self control, believe me. My kid wasn't too thrilled either.
