I think your truck spent too much time in the Derby garage, it now had a garage phobia! :falldownlaugh:

Oh thats right ,I forgot a few of you are still running antiques:poke:Back in 98?? they added 2 more valves per cylinder and is known as a 24 valve:poke:.
My valves I set once and a few were out of spec.I dont hear the occasionally ticking that I did before.There is nothing like the feel or sound of twins:woohoo:I cant believe how fast they build boost.I dropped the tank last nite and am in the process of installing the Hellman sump and Air dog.There is WWAAYY more power in this thin:97DodgeCTD:g than a normal person could want.I tested up to Smarty level 8 (revo soon to be tnt).........

i was putting down just shy of 500 hp with stock fuel system and injectors, silver bullet turbo with smarty tnt/r on 9. got the hamilton cam, and 110lb springs. so you should be quite a bit more with the additional mods
