If youre interested I have a tranny cooler off of my 3rd gen. Only put about 10k miles with amsoil used, before I removed it and got rid of the truck. Was going to use it on my 5g but its to small. PM me if your interested.

keep moving toward the boost :bigok:
 
Thanks for the help man!

You think I should get a A/F gauge as well?
What's a good range to have it at before I know to back off
Around high 11s?

Honestly I have only had mine for about 5 months and am still learning all that I can so I can't say what a good range is but the more info you have the better I would say.
 
Ok so I have a purchasing question myself. I found a 1st gen s/c for sale locally and the guy wants to swap my manifold to his Taco and I would swap the s/c onto my engine. The s/c has 70k on it, but the guy says it isn't making any noise from the cone or anything.

At what mileage would a rebuild probably be in order? I wouldn't have the money for the upgrades besides plugs and definitely not for a rebuild. I don't like the idea of losing my manifold, but I might be able to find one and there is a guy on ttora giving one away for free.

I have read that they are good for 100k plus infact mine had 186k. Here is Gadgets maintenance page http://www.gadgetonline.com/SuperNose.htm I would say get it let them have the upper intake and then get the one for free from TTORA and Just make sure you change the nose cone oil before putting it on. Drive it easy (like that's Possible :naughty:) until you can afford fuel mods.

Figure I'd post this here to get some attention.

Anyone with a supercharged 3rd gen. Wanna help me out? I'm selling 6 den so iridium ik22 plugs. Meant for us with SC. i had things come up and can't do the SC install anytime soon. Brand new untouched.

It's posted in classifieds for 60 shipped. Let me know if any of you planning to plugs anytime soon anyway. I'd appreciate if you guys bought my set if your planning to order anyway.

Thanks!
 
bump trying to get a little more attention to those with superchargers..


i have 6 BRAND NEW IK22 spark plugs im trying to sell for 50 shipped!

good for backup or those who are going to change spark plugs anyway..
ended up going a different route and wont need these. im taking a hit already selling them at 50 shipped but gotta do what i gotta do.

thanks
 
Good luck on the sale. Are you not going to install the SC on your runner now? Do you still need pics of my charger installed? Just got it back and running super smooth. I love it :thumb3:
 
Yea things came up and I needed tires too badly so it's been put aside.
Selling things I can to help me get out of a small bind for this month.

Thanks though! Let me know if you need plugs! :)
