yes i did. i was geting "spark blow out". toward the end of the track you could hear it missing. i tried diferent plugs and gaps but any time i turned it up into the 16+psi it would start to miss and get worse as the boost got higher.

kurt urban told me to turn up my dwell and it would be fixed so i did and it was.

well unless i'm magically producing boost outa nowhere i don't think blowout is gonna be a problem of mine but i might play with adding 1 or 2 mS to some different areas and see if it makes any difference. thanks

BTW do you still have the truck? iIremember reading in a post from one of the guys at FLT that someone with a blue truck was pushing their LVL 5 but he didn't have the truck anymore. i was just thinking, I only know of one blue truck that could push that tranny and it was yours.
