I am running C16 race fuel at 16 psi and I put down 991 hp spining the slicks on my dyno. I have lot more work to do . We took the Truck to the track to see what other problems we would have. Out of 4 passes we could not stay on the throttle in high gear because the truck was too loose . Then in the pits we found water in the oil . So I have to pull the heads now see what is up with mls gaskets and why they failed. But that just a part of making horsepower and fixing the weak links. I will keep you posted .

Could you give us the specs on your setup?

my original one took close to eight weeks, FLT is very busy, I am hoping they get right on it so they can find out what went wrong.

Ok, I think I see the upper radiator hose in that pic down low coming from the driver's side. Or is that the lower hose? How in the heck is the upper hose run?

hehehe. Very sneeky.

Its on the other side instead, and goes down under a few pipes then comes back up to the outlet on the top of the water pump.
