Porting the heads

[Erikclaw]

I ran 60's with my TP's and it would work great with towing. EGT's were never an issue and it ran strong. Pretty much had the same additions as you are doing too.

Truck gos on the rollers either later today or tommarow for some starting numbers on the new Dyno Dynamics Dynamometer at Performance Diesel-an awesome performance shop about 10 miles from my house. Plans are to do a few pulls and then get a base number to start with. Then add a few parts; tow powers, ported heads from soot with Hamilton springs, billet pushrods, ported intake, steed speed manifolds, custom up pipes for steed speed manis from Elite, ARP headstuds, and Elite wastegate kit with welded downpipe. Stock fuel for now with this build but I have been thinking either 60'S or 85's for the nozzles. Not sure what to run with for fuel as I still want to tow and have LOTS of fun on the street and track.

I am really looking forward to seeing the results, especially with Steed Speed and ported heads on stock fuel...and then how the bigger nozzles shows. This is definitely a great build.

Do you have any results from yesterday that you would like to share?

 

[08BIGRIG]

I am on the dyno right now. Results to follow.

Sweet!!

I wouldn't go bigger than 60s with tow powers unless you plan to spray it jerry. There's a lot of available fuel with these trucks, and adding air really helps. The stock hpfp might keep up with 60s if it's strong, and has good supply fuel, and if it does, it won't keep up forever. If you're not wanting to do a fuel system, I would add the air dog and air dog upgrade, then do nozzles and high pressure side at the same time.

i think corrected is a better option as long as your going on the same dyno for after test. the correction will be identical on a different day in different weather, hypothetically. besides, im pretty sure thats a conservative number corrected, i did 596 with similar mods, just didnt have that purty intake kit!

:toast:I will in fact be on the same Dyno for the after numbers as well. Things are coming together finally.

Right on Jerry. Im excited for ya. There is a very nasty rumor going around recently about these ported intakes loosing power on the dyno. Looking forward to you proving that wrong buddy!

Was that dyno run on stock heads? I thought that you said you sent yours off to be ported and I saw the pics of them when you got them back...or do you have a second set?

 

[08BIGRIG]

This dyno run was with stock heads, stock fuel, stock turbos, stock intake manifold, and stock exhaust manifolds and up pipes. I have two sets of everything.

Ah...that makes sense.

 

[Tree Trimmer]

:rockon: No core charges because I have purchased the cores out right my man. It is nice to not have ANY down time on the truck when it is going to be worked on.

I like your style.

 

[capt dong]

any progress?

 

[08BIGRIG]

As of right now, I am waiting for the Up pipes for the Steed Speed manifolds, the manifolds, and zmax intake to come back from Elite. I had to send them back in because there was an issue I guess with fitment. It's all good as I understand things happen but just REALLY need to get this done asap.
