Remember, I said you'd like diesels... :)

I have a completely built trans and triple-disc billet lockup converter........... stock stuff with a transgo kit won't last at all with the bigger tunes.

It hits 1450-1500 max which is somewhat high, but no way it'll do any damage in a 1/4 mile race, not enough time. I think my license allows me to tune two trucks, but I promised Brent Dupont he could be the second truck. If your friend gets a license you can use my tuner, no problem. And yes, you said I'd like it, and as usual you were right. You're a pretty smart guy.......... ;)

1400-1500F isn't high at all given the MPH... I'm impressed. I've seen trucks with programmers have EGT's that high and they only trap around 98-102 mph.

My buddy with the Dodge in the low 11's runs 1800-1900F at the strip... and sometimes 2000F when at the tractor pulls. :wow:

I figured you had done something to the trans. The simple valve body mod / pressure kits usually will start throwing P07XX tranny codes at around the 140-150hp level and the converters aren't too far behind that.

Who did you get the tranny from? (BD, Suncoast, etc?) or did you have it built locally?

Made a trip to Los Angeles for an Efi Live Diesel tuning class, and had the trans done while I was down there. Guy named Mike Lovrich (sp) at Inglewood Trans did a Suncoast SCIV trans kit in mine along with one of their new 1058 billet converters.

Leave it to your friends to be the bad influence & try spending more of your $$. Somehow though Jody - I don't think you need any influence. When it comes to power you are your own worst enemy!! :D

When I can I set up an appt for my truck!! Don't need to run 12's though!
