Yeah I did. I just don't know what trans you're talking about.

I sell transmissions for Twisted Diesel. I was just saying to let me know when you're ready to start checking prices.

I'm in nc I'm going to go to twisted myself and take advantage of the free install. I'll pay for it through you though if I can.

Don't worry about paying through me. Just pay Twisted. That will be the easiest way. I just wanted to offer Twisted as an option. Glad you're going to them. You won't be disappointed.

Stg2 should be enough for me I would think.

Talk to Daryl to be sure. I'd think you'd need the Level 3 to retain the warranty at the power level you could achieve with your setup.

LOL. Making power is expensive. If it were easy and cheap, everybody would be driving around 700 RWHP trucks.

Don't get discouraged. 190's and a 366 will be a great setup, but it'll make the power to eat the trans, as you've seen. After the trans, you should be good. If PSE takes care of the heads, you slap a trans in it, you should have a very reliable 600-650RWHP truck.

This is why I am doing everything, before adding fuel. I've got my regulated return and ported intake coming. Gonna slap a delta line kit on it and a 6.4 lift pump then it'll be ready for fuel.

Find somebody within a couple states that will help me do it. Somebody that has done it before with a lift. I'll make thdrive and sleep in the garage if I have too. Im willing to pay 1000 to 1500 for the guidance and the lift and tools for a couple of days. I'll be doing the hard work.

If you find someone decently close, I'd like to come along or meet you somewhere and learn the process as well. If that's cool with you and whoever's place you end up in. I've never lifted a cab or gone deeper than injectors in one but I'd help as much as possible and supply some beer lol. Let me know!

Sounds like a plan. The cam will be the hardest part.

You're just pissing it off by calling it a POS. That's why it keeps breaking.

Well it needs about 10k in work the way it sits. Looks like the dealer isn't wanting to acknowledge my warranty.
