his truck sounds just like mine and all i'm running is a smarty tnt/race stacked with a dr.p pressure box.. sounds like about the same rpms. I am the 3rd truck about 1:00 in.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwlC3toLaMY
Looked like whoever took that video had terretts or something, got dizzy watchin it lol.
On the melted piston deal, it will all depend on who is tuning it. Melted pistons are a result of too much timming so in therory yes it could end all of your melted piston issues. But get the tunning wrong its no better.
I am running my timing and low as my smarty will allow me. I have also lowered the inj into the bowl another .060 lower. The injectors just seem to blow holes right through the pistons. I am not sure if my inj just arent big enough??
To low a timing can be just as bad as to much. You could be spraying fuel way past TDC. That will kill pistons also.
What about pilot timing and pulse?
Trouble you have no idea how low really is.
To really get a handle on this you need to know what you actual timing along with pulse width. Then you can do the math and figure out how much of the main shot is before and after TDC and how many degrees of crank rotation the main pulse uses.
With hand held you know nothing and can not make a worth while adjustment.
With a controller like the Zeus you can do all of that just like the Dmax guys have been doing for years.
Zuess has more capability then even efi with tables that go to what we need and no tables that are not needed. I am not sure how the drivers are in the stock dmax stuff but it more then likly has better inj driving capability at higher rpms.

sounds like he is running about 500 more rpm then you? what do you run in drive rpm wise?
I run between 3800-4200 down the track in 3rd locked with 3:73 gears and 285 tires. I have seen over 4500 but just when it is winding out to grab another gear.
Fixin the clutch right now, if it hold will have video of something this weekend. That hook was not a good reprasentation of what it will do rpm wise.
is your truck p-pumped or something? Ive never seen a cr run more than 4200?
