I am selling the truck because I just don’t have the time to use it or continue adding the mods I would like. The truck has never seen any off-roading since the conversion. Sad but true. All the miles on the engine are highway miles with some DD.

What do you get for MPG?

 

[Aponawave]

Seeing 19-20mpg at 75mph

 

[BJ74Guy]

Damn that's a sweet ride for sure. What kind of RPM are you pulling (and I wonder mpg) at 60mph?

And, if Proffitts did it its a professional job to be sure.

 

[Aponawave]

55 is where it locks up so rpm drops way down. 75mph is like 1800-2000 rpm. The engine loves 1800. That is just the way it is set currently, Trans controller can be set up to personal taste super easy.

 

[BJ74Guy]

I sent you a conversation.... How loud is it inside the cab?

 

[BJ74Guy]

Ok this is silly, but what's with that gauge pod? It looks like it doesnt fit? The top looks strange.

 

[BJ74Guy]

Ok, what are those two "ARB" like switches on the left dash?

 

[BJ74Guy]

Ya, more questions sorry. How many miles on the engine? Any up and coming needed engine issues?

 

[Aponawave]

Gauge pod is fuel pressure, EGT, boost and the top sticks out a bit I. The back but you don't notice it in when in the seat. The camera angle makes it more noticeable cause it took it high from the back seat.

Switches to the left are;
Amber - intake heater grid for cold weather starting. Monetary switch that activates an electric heater on the intake manifold
Blue - reverse lights and back up camera.

Engine is a 2006. It was new at the conversion so 35,000ish miles on it no major service on it anytime soon.

Man I want this.

 

[BJ74Guy]

Ive heard these engines are loud. I have a 1995 Dodge, how loud is this compared to that?

 

[Aponawave]

What is the atmospheric pressure in your location? And temp?

 

[Aponawave]

Sorry for the humor I don't have anyway to answer the comparison.

 

[BJ74Guy]

No problems. I just heard that that engine is loud. I was just wondering. What is your opinion on the power of the engine? Do you feel the truck has enough power? Could it tow a trailer with no problems for example?

 

[Aponawave]

The tow rating for the truck is like 5500lbs I think that would be as much as i would go. I towed my jeep around with it and it did fine, thats about 3750. I think the lift and tires would be a bit of the issue more than the power.
