    Why do we 7.3 guys lock our tc's early and during shifts, and the cummins guys cant?

    I ask because I see a lot of the big hp guys on here who keep their TC locked thru all gears when pulling or towing, and also when just driving around. It seems that the cummins guys w/ their 12v's dont like shifting w/ their tc's locked because their trannies self destruct. They also so they...

    Will simply adding a triple disk convertor throw off my tuning?

    I know that a 3-disk convertor grabs much harder than my stock e4od's single disk... but is a torque-convertor a tuneable item? IE, can my tuner make adjustments for simply installing a low stall, triple disk/triple clutch on my e4od?

    Dacco triple disk, triple clutch steel convertor?

    Called the high-end shop around here that rebuilt the e4od in my truck a few mos before I bought it, in an effort to get some info on my trans. I thought it was peculiar that I could tow 10k lbs, never had a slippage issue, never goes over 160-180*, and still has bright red fluid several years...

    Installed gauges, ac stopped working

    Did my ac stop working as a direct cause of installing the gauges? I dont know. For that matter, I dont know that it stopped working the exact day I installed my gauges. All I know is I run my ac often to make sure the compressor works and doesnt freeze, and to circuilate the freon. Last summer...

    Stock e4od never gets over 160*?

    Got a question for you guys. Guy before me had the truck rebuilt but a local tranny shop thats very well known. I called the shop after I bought the shop and they confirmed the tranny was rebuilt. They said they only use OEM parts though, nothing special. So my truck has 35s and a lift...

    Currently tuned; going to install VB and TC

    Will there be any issues installing my TC and VB w/ my current tuning? I know it will probably shift HARD, but thats not necessarily bad is it? I just wanna make sure that I wont tear my trans up by installing those things and not getting retuned right away.

    Guys that tow long haul: AC or windows?

    Out of curiosity, do you guys that tow cross-country use your AC or windows when hot? Does the AC actually decrease your mpg when at highway speeds or is the change in mileage negligible?

    Improving 1997 f250 braking

    Hello all. Will adding some cryo treated rotors up front, nice Hawk Super Duty pads up front, and better drums and pads help significantly with my braking-power? It seems like it can take a lot of pedal and it still doesn't seem to stop quite like I'd like... nothing like my old super duty...

    Is efuel straight forward? You need a lift-pump that creates 60-70psi and thats that? Because I see people deleting fuel bowls, running massive cat filters, and an assortment of things depending on the build

    tow tunes on 4-500hp trucks

    Whats the difference between a tow tune and a hot setting? Is it mostly defueling to prevent massive egt's? Or are there timing differences, shifting differneces, TC lockup differences etc?
