And so it begins !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (1 Viewer)

I don't think it would show much. I think 280 on a dynojet is pretty standard for a Silverado that is stock.

I replotted the tq and it's basically flat at 240lbft till HP starts to fall off.

got ur pm. be looking for a box. Thanks

nice results for pretty much stock. I hope you resolve the front driveshaft issues.

With a slightly larger cam ('02-04 Z06), ported stock TB, and retune you would pick up an easy 20 rwhp+. It would also keep the power down low; however allow you to continue making power to about 6500rpm. There is an '01 Z06 cam for $100 locally if you want the info. It is a little smaller than the '02-04 ones but would work well. I even have some Z06 yellow springs for it ($40 shipped).

 

[wayneosan]

Yup already have springs and adjustable timing gear. Engine builder says that cam and advance the s*** out of the cam timing will make boatloads more tq down low, so ill drop the revs for off idle snap

Been a while, but there has been a money drought. Well, I finally have suspension and wheels. Update coming soon.

I need a 5th wheel rear carrier, which company sells a good swing out one?

 

[warpdriv]

DUDE! Glad to see ya checking in. What kit/wheels/tires are you going with? If you want to weld it up yourself, 4x4 labs is the only game in town. I like this one too, https://forum.ih8mud.com/sale-parts/414855-80-series-swing-out-tire-carrier-bumper.html, full built prices are scaring me off.

 

[wayneosan]

I like that rear bumper. I think 1700 plus shipping for the dual is worth the price. There's probably 30+ hours welding and fabricating; to me that's at least 1200 in time and 250-300 in materials, or more, so for him to make some profit, that's a good deal.

If I had extra dough, I'd buy it so I don't have to build it. I'm going to be sending you something warpdriv, so msg me your address again. Don't know when you'll get it but you'll know when it arrives.


When I'm doing the suspension, I'll look at what it takes to do a custom bumper too. I have three welders up at the shop, putting forth some effort to make one is a must.

Here's the latest pick with the exhaust and the lift and wheel/tires
Man that was a lot of work.

The engine bay is completely done, with lack of a good high flowing water proof air box. TBD regarding a snorkle kit.

The AC is ice cold. It is totally run by the Toyota system, and un fortunately, the AC input to the ECU is not working as it would on an earlier GM ECU, due to being drive by wire. Needs to have the proper serial data from the AC control head. Same goes with the cruise control. Needs data from the ABS module. For simplicity sake, cable throttle swaps are recommended, however, if you like challenges, and are an electrical nerd like me, then try looking into an ecu that didn't have auto climate possibly, or wire in the control unit and hide it behind the dash. DBW is still cool.

I did need to use about 30$ worth of foam Fromm the home depot race shop to completely seal the gaps between the condenser and radiator. I also bought a heavy duty fan clutch from parts store so at 1,000rpm, the fan is really zinging. That moves so much air through the condenser its not even funny. Heck these trucks being so old, that should be a common mod. Well I'm going to red river next weekend, may stop by Bonham on the way out.

I'll get pic up.

 

[rockrod]

i will have my a/c wired into the pcm serial pretty soon.

the toy system does work without the pcm influence, it's just not as clean.

 

[wayneosan]

Well, I'm not sure what you mean about clean. The system works flawlessly.

 

[wayneosan]

Man I can't wait! Going on a long road trip!

 

[warpdriv]

Looking good man!!

 

[scottryana]

Very clean work on the swap.

I probably don't have to tell you about the E85 but be careful running it because there can be large swings in the ethanol content. I run E85 in my GT-R and summer E85 can be 88-89% ethanol while in the winter it's only 70%. Not sure if you plan on running a flex fuel type sensor and having the computer adjust or if you are going to have several maps to load based off of Ethanol content, but it does make some great torque and power!!

Well, I couldn't take it. I put a Walbro fuel pump in. Took about 30 minutes. I thought I'd have to drop the tank,... duh.

So, in go our ID725 injectors. I don't need them, but I'm tuning it for e85 AND regular.

I took pics so I'll update tonight.

 

[wayneosan]

That's awesome! I do most of the tuning on the GTRS and build engines for T1 race development. Just about all big power cars get the Zetronix ethanol content sensors.

I just put in ID725s! Easy squeazy lemmon peazy.

Im in OKLAHOMA! Going wheeling!

Jeff, coming down south to see you soon!

[scottryana]

Very cool Wayne! Yeah I am not a big power car, ID1000's, pumps, intakes, turbo inlets, catless downpipes, catless midpipe, catback, E85. But runs pretty good! I think I have seen T1's zetronix installs on Nagtroc, very clean and something I would love to do, but I am not sure the future of E85.

Have fun wheeling!

[alia176]

So, what's the final HP and Torque numbers? Same as the graph you posted or something more?

 

[scottryana]

I would bet with E85 he picks up 30 more hp and 60 more ft/lbs of torque.

 

[wayneosan]

I don't know, I put it back on 87/91 tune for going wheeling. According to GPS, my speedo is 8mph off. WOW that's a lot. I got about 240 miles to a tank with being off. I haven't thought about how to figure out the actual mileage per tank with speedo being off.


Full bolt on E85 GTR will put down between 550-560 on our dyno depending on inlet pipes. That's good power right there!

The math is pretty consistent with 5%. So, take your cars power and add 5%. That's what it gains without adding timing or boost. IIRC, 93 octane tunes, net 535-540hp on a GTR full bolt on, then switch to E85 and net 560ish.

I've also confirmed this on other cars as well.

 

[scottryana]

Pretty close to what I have seen, I put down 584hp and 615ft/lbs on E85, on a mustang dyno here in town.

To figure the mileage being 8% off, just multiply the 240 by 1.08, and divide by how many gallons you put in.

It's 8mph, not 8% though. Ok, I'll have some coffee and after that I'll put the pen to it and see what happens.
