Truck is at Jeff Garmons Truck Day Care - Competition Diesel.Com

SuperDave4x4 · 10-10-2006, 03:17 PM

Well I dropped my truck off at Jeff's Day Care today.

It's getting Suncoast 91% triple disk, Extreme duty rebuild kit, flexplate and billet input shaft. I'm gonna have to leave it there till friday HOPEFULLY. I may have to leave it there longer.

I was really hoping to get it back this friday so I could put my 150hp injectors in, but the new tranny is worth the wait. I'll let you fellas know how everything turns out!

RacinDuallie · 10-10-2006, 03:20 PM

I see you went for the billet input AND the flexplate.... wise desision.

***Timbeaux*** · 10-10-2006, 03:40 PM

Sweet! You will love the truck when you get it back

SuperDave4x4 · 10-10-2006, 03:46 PM

Yeah, I went with both....and now I can't eat off the dollar menu. But it's cheaper to do it now than later down the road.

Tim, I'm PUMPED

and I can't wait till I get in the drivers seat again. It's all I'm gonna be thinking about till I get that sucker back.

I think you'll like it Dave

Judging by the way Timmy acted with his you'll love it as well

what the cost of jeff going way out like that on a rebuild

haz-mat19 · 10-10-2006, 10:33 PM

Congrats

SuperDave4x4 · 10-18-2006, 09:45 PM

Well I got her back today at about 3:00 and WOW when this thing shifts you know it!!!

And lockup boy I tell you what, you better make sure that the cups are secured in the cup holder..

I'm very pleased with the out come of the truck. And this thing is very much easier driving around town. I don't have to push the pedal as much to get it going and it's just all round better. Now I just need more HP!!!!!!!!!!

Also I just got finished installing the new injectors, but the Buttdynometer didn't really feel like 150hp. I think I'll be able to judge them better after a good nights rest. I did however notice that my egts did go up and my boost is at about 35psi or so. I didn't really get to test them out too well or too hard, but tomorrow I will.

As far as smoke there really didn't seem to be a whole lot, but it was dark out, so we'll see in the morning.

Now I need a turbo....anybody got one????

BUCKSHOT · 10-18-2006, 10:36 PM

Sweet now when will I see it around town????

SuperDave4x4 · 10-18-2006, 10:42 PM

I'll be tooling around in the morning after my 8:00 class for a little bit, and then I have to study for a impossible test that I have on friday...

Did I mention that I love my new tranny yet?

SuperDave4x4 · 10-19-2006, 04:49 PM

Well I know why I can't black out two lanes of traffic now, Scott thinks he may have accidentally sent me some cores. Oh well. Everyone makes mistakes. So he overnighted me a set of 150's and I'll install them tomorrow afternoon. Hopefully this install will go a little bit smoother than the other day's install. That injector in the back is MF'r to get to I can tell you that!

I just gotta say thanks to Scott for being such a nice guy to deal with. His customer service is TOP NOTCH!!!

BUCKSHOT · 10-19-2006, 10:10 PM

You replaced yours with someones cores

......How long did it take you to replace the cores?

*TooMuchBoost* · 10-20-2006, 09:03 AM

Glad you like it!

IMO, you can't beat Jeff's skills.

***wideopen*** · 10-20-2006, 09:09 AM

Dude that would suck to change injectors and get cores instead of 150's
