BTW- Nope, I don't think so. That's something easily searched out tho. You'll have more compression and actually,- you'll have the most powerful engine made with OEM parts for that generation of truck. More than the original PI motors anyway. - Excluding the lightning/SVT.

Before tuning it, I'd make it a little worth while. Like say LT's and intake.

LOL. The older I get, the more conservative my driving style. Plus it's really nice on your insurance when you don't have any speeding tickets in 8+ years. That coupled with running nothing but 93 in her exudes a lil more self control with my right foot. At one time, I was much like [MENTION=146035]Jackedup00[/MENTION]. Tore more cars up than I can count. It's when you start footing the repair bill that you gain a whole new perspective.

And that's exactly why I included you in my statement my friend. You live and you learn. The more you have invested in something, the better care you take of it.

Don't get me wrong,I'll still tear **** up but it will be in a truck I buy or build that I don't care about. If it breaks,oh well I'll find the part at a junkyard later.
