very nice man! I'm psyched for you! I thought about doing the 5.3/4l60 swap on my dakota, but its my daily and i'd much rather sink that money into my Z lol. What are you doing for EFI, stock pcm?
|
Yup stock computer. Gonna have a buddy tune it for me.
Just have a little wiring left and to build the induction and its ready to fire! |
Nice man! I'm excited to see the finished product!

Well i finally fired it up tonite!! Diddent get to run it long, open manifolds and 9 pm isnt a good mix with my neighbors. But all in all everything seems fine thus far. Plan to run it more tomorrow after work and maybe try and get it to a muffler shop on saturday and get that fixed up. Getting closer to done!!

Got some more things taken care of tonite. Started it and ran a heat cycle. Need to change my evac a little. Pretty much from here just need to get the tune straightened out, swap my adapter plates so the trans sits in the crossmember correctly, double check all fluids, and finish up a couple wiring items to make the rest of the factory gauges work and its ready to hit the muffler shop. Hoping I can get everything done Sunday so I can take it Monday to the muffler shop and get that taken care of. We will see.. On to the pics.
Here is what I did with my dbw pedal. It's perfectly in the stock location, but since the throw is a little different this is what I ended up with. http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps104b8634.jpg http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps64696ee8.jpg http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps53efafd3.jpg http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...pse76f1dd9.jpg Here is where I used the factory hole and enlarged it to accept the grommet for the pedal wires. http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps03768b1d.jpg And here is the wiring 95% done. Need to order a computer bracket. There are a few things I plan to change in the future to clean them up a little better but this is functional. http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps296dd1de.jpg |

pretty badass dude. looks like a lot of fun putting that together. I bet it's going to be bittersweet when you're done.

i'm excited to see it finished! must post dyno video!
|
I highly doubt it will see the dyno. I got a base tune in it for now. Hoping to make it to the muffler shop tomorrow then we can finish up the tune. Other the that just a hand full of things to button up and it's done.

got the exhaust all done and buttoned up. Just a couple minor things left and it will be complete. Hoping to finish up the tune in the next couple days. I found out yesterday that my grandma passed away along with my great aunt So i have to travel to oklahoma city tomorrow evening to handle that. I have kept plugging away at it today, as this helps me cope with things.
Here are a couple of pictures. All cleaned up after the muffler shop. http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps491c6576.jpg Getting the exhaust done http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...ps0369ae52.jpg Finished up! Full 3'' with an x pipe http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...pse48c3e99.jpg Exhaust clip http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/d...psa7fa27c2.jpg |
Been driving the truck for a week now. Runs really good, and sounds pretty sweet! Throttle response it nice and crisp, power is really smooth and get to speed quick! took it to oklahoma to visit my uncle for his b-day. With the tune not being perfect, and pulling 2600-2700 rpms i averaged 18.78 mpg. Pretty happy with that. Hoping once the tune is finished and I can get an od trans put in, hoping to see 20+ mpg..
