Just wanted to post up some progress on the swap. The idle screw was a royal pain in the ***! I just went ahead and removed it from the bottom and put it in from the top. I noticed that when I went to find the screw, it wasn't hardly touching the throttle piece at all. Now it idles about 750/800 and it hardly ever drops idle at stopping anymore.
It still seems to be running a little rich. Not real bad. I might be able to solve it by getting a stock maf with the screen in it. I got the electric cutouts installed this weekend. I LOVE THESE THINGS! It sounds like a freaking funny car when you run it with them open.

Mufflers- The magnaflows are great. I wouldn't suggest running the big ones with no cats and lt headers if you don't like it loud at acceleration. At cruise speed, you can't hear them at all, but you can't get away with anything if you get on it.

I'm getting a weird feeling sometimes in the rear end when I'm slowing down. My mechanic told me he saw that I needed new brake pads and calipers in the rear, so maybe that is why it seems to be grapping weird in the rear end. I'm still getting used to the 3.73s and stall.

She is a beast on the road. I had a run in with a single cab 5.3L on the highway Sunday. We were going about 45mph. I waited until I saw him go, then I got on it and instantly put buses on him. Now I need to make it track ready with some new shocks and some ET Slicks.

 

Awesome

 

Looks like there's another fast truck around the parts.

 

Sounds good man, gettin there!

Gotta' love it

 

way to go
got any clips yet?

 

Thanks guys. The idle issue was really bugging me out, but I got the screw flipped over and put back in and it idles a consistant 700-750. Just right to hear the cam loping. I'm going to try to get some clips this weekend. Hopefully I can make it to the track Saturday night. I want to see what it will run feathering it out of the hole. That way when the slicks come in, I can see how much they help. I had a race setup tonight with a 94 convertible T/A with an LT1 at the gas station. He thought I was crazy setting this up, but as soon as I started up the truck to head out to the race spot, his eyes got as big as J Lo's ***. He flagged me down and told me there was no way the truck was stock.(I had told him it was ) We talked for a long time, but he absolutely would not race me(his date was with him, so it was kinda sad. ) I took him for a ride, and all he could say was "GOOD LORD" over and over again. He told me there was no way his convert could touch it, and he didn't want to look bad infront of his date. I told him it was no problem and went on my way. I'm going HEMI hunting Friday night!

 

Fast toys are cool! Mine is still slow though.

 

Get you a sticker that says: HEMI Hunter

 

I wanna see you put a few buses on my 5.3. Seriously, there are a few of us going to Hattiesburg on sunday if the weather cooperates and I would love to see how that beast does now. Glad you finally got everything in a working well.
