Talking just got home from the cave!

So i just got home from my first but deff. not last visit to the cave. minus scott trying to blow up his heater with bio and eric trying to steal tools it was very fun and a good learning opp. But to the real meat and gravy. i got a 7.3 that i'm now willing to sell and im going to do a cummins swap. this thing pulls like you would not believe. so my next phase is to install the rest of my gauges and try to find a bull hauler stack, beaf up my tranny and a 3k gsk. so try and sell that drill press scott (my truck depends on in it). hope to see you all again real soon. and thanks Todd for towing my trailer home.

I take it that you have seen the light? I had a good time helping you guys on the 12 valve trucks, glad to see that you are impressed with the CTD.

govenor spring kit, allows the pump to fuel longer, so you get more fuel at higher rpms. Theres a 3K and 4K kits. its only for the 12 valves tho.

the stock govenor springs start defueling at 1900-2200 rpms... after that it prettymuch falls on its face. no computer chips on these trucks. its all mechanical.
