We need to hear the engine sounds and them squealing tars along with HP Tuners...

No film schooling necessary boys

Love how the Tach goes red when you pass the gauges redline (not the limiter) 52MPH first gear when I had 3.42's
This was my very first data log when I didn't know ****... still don't

Do they make a cluster that reads over 6k? I have a dash cam really need to figure out how to get the data out of the head unit.

I think there is a way to put in a cluster that has over 6k but I am not sure about that. It might be some custom **** but I swear I saw one in some crazy build.

I need to get a dash cam too but I don't want one where you can hear me talk. Hate that personally

Stop talking to yourself so much.

Write a book?
Rent a billboard?
Graffiti?
Targetted ads?
Social media spamming?

Your regular cab is a 4.8 right? Why not put the 862s on it? I am unsure of how it would react to them though.

Don't think there is a cluster that's goes over 6k. I have seen a couple retrofits of auto meter, or equivalent, gauges with the 10k tach and 200mph speedo and individual gauges for other stuff.

RCSB is but a shell pushed to one of my barns but, I have a forged piston 370 with PRC CNC ported 225 heads on the engine stands twerked down and ready to go. I've just lost interest in it lately, it needs about $1,800 in rear end parts, 2 custom driveshafts, set of Bilstein 7100s, and uhh lots of hours' worth of work. Since Covid I've been busier than a one-armed paper hanger with an itch and don't want something clogging shop space for 6 months.

Huh, if I could find another manual trans cluster I'd play around with trying to get the factory shift light to come on at my selected RPM inn HPT. I never played with that in my RCSB but I don't see why it wouldn't work.
