Well...its not really that cold up here right now...its about 8-10*C overnight and in the day it gets up to 15-20*C. Plus I'm running close to 400hp with a stock transmission...plus I tow...I'm gonna start with a TC and a new valve body, then I'll move into billet everything, clutches etc. I will be dumping my old batteries though. They always have a decent charge because I do a lot of driving, but there is lots of corrosion on the terminals and when I purchased the truck last year, both batteries were completely dead.

Truck is running alright (so far) I'll update the post in a couple of days.

Well, it died again last night. When I bump the starter it doesn't sound like the lift pump is running (no buzz). I only have a 1757 code, no CEL, no 1693. I don't get it...it ran perfectly friday, and now it randomly dies and won't start. hopefully its just the lift pump.
